Marcus Ryan Makes Korea his 58th

At Stand Up Seoul, we are passionate about comedy. Our goal is to create a welcoming environment where both local and international comedians can showcase their talents and bring laughter to our audiences. We are excited to be hosting visiting comedian Marcus Ryan from Australia, who has traveled to 57 countries and is sure to bring a unique perspective to his show. With over 70 tickets sold, the anticipation is growing. Join us for a night of laughter and great memories that will have you coming back for more.

No Pride, Just Prejudice

Welcome to Stand Up Seoul, the premier comedy show organizer in Seoul. We're proud to announce our upcoming pride month show, titled 'No Pride, Just Prejudice'. This show will feature the first all LGBTQ+ performers line up, and it's happening amid anti-LGBTQ protests in Seoul. We're excited to be a part of this historic event and believe that comedy has the power to bring people together and spread acceptance and understanding. Join us for a night of laughter and celebration!

Comedian Matt Davis returns to Korea

Matt Davis, an Alabama-born comedian, is set to perform two shows in Seoul this month: one stand-up comedy and one storytelling. With a career spanning 27 years, he has entertained audiences in over 65 countries and 300 cities. Davis crafts universally relatable material, aiming to resonate with people regardless of location. He tackles heavy subjects like politics and religion, not to stir controversy but to elicit laughter through his unique perspective. Believing that most experiences are "simply human and shared," he doesn't alter his act for different cultures. Davis continues to evolve his craft, embracing the interconnectedness of today's comedy world.
