Ganja in Sejong, South Korea - ma story

Hi, folks! Today I plan to share my rasta-experience after visiting infinite party Sejong in South Korea. Brief conclusion - for some reason it’s not easy to get really good🍀cannabis buds or hash in Sejong in an “oldschool way”, but options do exist. Below I describe what is going on with weed in Sejong.

I just got back from Sejong a week ago, now smoking a big joint of pineapple weed strain, reminding me of that cool time I had in Sejong — thanks in part to the weed that accompanied me on my adventures.

Weed Laws in South Korea: The Real Deal

Alright, let’s break it down — South Korea ain’t playin' with their weed laws. If you’re thinkin' you can just stroll into a shop and cop some high-THC weed in Sejong like you do in the Netherlands, nah fam, think again. You won’t find any legit spots sellin' anything with enough THC to get you lifted. You might see some medical stuff, but that CBD ain't gon' do nothin'.

Met this dude Alex in the hotel bar. He’s been around the Sejong block, knows what’s up with the ganja scene out here. Turns out, while the rules are strict on paper, the cops ain't always on it like that.

What Happens If You Get Caught with Weed?

In Sejong, if you have a little bit of weed with you (less than 10 grams), you probably won’t get into big trouble. The police might take it away, but they usually won’t arrest you. It’s still a good idea to be careful and not smoke cannabis in public in Sejong.

Sejong’s Weed Vibe: What Locals Say

Just ‘cause the government’s trippin' on cannabis laws in Sejong doesn’t mean the locals are too pressed. Most of 'em are just livin' their lives, not sweatin' what you do. But don’t get it twisted — keep it respectful. Smoking weed in public in Sejong ain't the move, but if someone peeps you tokin’, it’s not the end of the world.

As I was actively asking and discussing weed - Alex invited me to his apartment for a small party that very first evening - just a couple of his rasta friends, beer, weed and PS5 - exactly what I do love😁😁😁. How lucky I was😁 Alex told he will be my weed dealer while I am here in Sejong so I had no issues with great stuff all that time.

Alex also confirmed locals are OK with weed in Sejong if you behave yourself correctly, while it’s better to avoid cops and not to have more than 10 grams in your pocket.

How Do People Get Weed in Sejong?

Finding weed in Sejong isn’t as easy as just asking someone on the street. Wholesale dealers in Sejong buy weed through special darknet websites, but that’s a bit tricky for regular cannabis users who want to smoke, but not re-sell weed.

For tourists, the process of obtaining weed in Sejong is a bit different. Street dealers are less common these days. Instead, many have moved to a more discreet system using encrypted messaging apps like Telegram. You get their contact details from someone who’s already bought weed in Sejong or through online forums, then you place your order, arrange a drop-off point, and pay with cryptocurrency. The package is typically left in a hidden spot, and you’re given the location and a photo to help you find it. This approach minimizes risks for both you and the dealer. I was glad I had Alex as my connection so I didn’t have to go through all this hassle.
