Seoul
AS the mercury outside plunges to minus 10 degrees on an ice-cold Monday afternoon, the dance floor inside the Kukilgwan Palace is packed with grey-haired Korean couples moving to the rhythms of high-volume disco.
"I come here every day of the week, except for Saturday and Sunday," said 81-year-old Jun Il-taek as he danced beneath the giant disco balls and brightly-coloured string lights decorating the venue in central Seoul.
