Climbing Park Sinnonhyeon grades, explained
클라이밍파크 신논현점
Climbing Park Sinnonhyeon is on the 3rd basement level of 468 Gangnam-daero (Yeoksam-dong), a few steps from exit 5 of Sinnonhyeon Station. Walls are reset every other Friday, when the gym opens at 16:30.
Bouldering grades
Problems are graded by colour in nine steps: yellow, pink, blue, red, purple, brown, grey, black, then white (hardest). The gym publishes no V-grades. The ranges below come from climbers' blogs: one gives V0–V1 for the four easiest colours, and others compare the colours with The Climb, whose colours a Korean guide maps to V-grades. The top two colours are extrapolated.

| 노랑 YellowBlog (2025): yellow, pink and blue are all about V0; another equates yellow and pink with The Climb's yellow (V0-) | VB–V0 | 3–4B+ |
