All PC bangs over here are open 24/7. That's when you make your money, after 10pm when groups of people head in together to play WoW or Lineage or Kart Rider.
It's also a cheap hotel for people under 30 who get caught on the other side of town after the subway stops running. Rather than paying the US$20 - $30 to take a taxi home, people head to the "PC bang" at 2-3am, check some email, and pay about $1.25 an hour to snooze in a comfy chair for an hour.
PC bang owners supposedly make a killing (pun not intended). 24 hour revenue (with most places full at peak time after school and at least 30% full during the graveyard shift), plus the 20-year old attendants don't make more than $3/hour.
