Not sure if it's too late to reply, but as a person living in Korea now, I can turn around from the cafe I'm in and see multiple PC Bangs. Visiting one recently, my observation is still quite packed on the weekend, haven't experienced a weekday. This is in a place outside Seoul and slightly near a popular downtown area. Just felt motivated to provide an opposite perspective based on real experience.

Thanks for the perspective. I wonder if there is an opportunity for these places to service office workers during the day, and gamers on weeknight/weekends? More and more people have the option to work from home, but may want a quiet office nearer their home. They could drop into these cafes for a few hours to get work done. Then come 5pm the place turns into a gaming cafe.
