There are a variety of desserts and bagels here, so if you're busy, it would be good to take them out for a quick meal. Also, the atmosphere on the 1st and 2nd floors is different, so it's good to choose a seat according to your taste. It seems like they're selling cute accessories on the 1st floor, so I was able to look around while waiting for the menu🙌 The 2nd floor has a particularly antique atmosphere, so there were people studying or working alone! It's not far from Konkuk University's food street, but it's not crowded, so it feels like I found a hidden cafe? You can find it if you enter the alley from the main street😆 #Emotional cafe #Inaepick #Konkuk University cafe #Seoul hot place #Cafe tour #Cafe recommendation #Konkuk University date #Konkuk University #Cafe recommendation #Hot place #Couple

#Cafe with a good view #Seongsu #McPie and Tiger Tea Room #Imooboysukcha The savory and fragrant taste and aroma make you feel like you're walking through a forest after the rain, with a woody and heavy mood. Drinking the tea warms and relaxes your body and mind, and I like the clean finish even more. #Hadong Green Tea I drank warm green tea grown in Hadong, the home of green tea with a thousand years of history. It's like the greenness of the leaves has been transferred as is #Basque Cheesecake The savory taste of cheese melting in your mouth and the slightly burnt husky flavor are harmoniously combined, making it so delicious. The cake is also thick, so the rich taste goes well with the tea, making it a great snack to eat🤍 The cozy and sophisticated interior and friendly atmosphere left a strong impression of high-end.

The retro vintage feeling from the exterior is really atmospheric! The interior is narrow, so there aren't many tables, but we were able to sit around a large table in the middle and enjoy coffee and dessert comfortably. The coffee and the pies they make themselves are all really delicious, and the music is blues-style jazz, making it a great place to visit! If you're looking for a cafe to visit near Gunja Station, I recommend it:) #SeoulTravel #GunjaTravel #NeighborhoodTour #CafeRecommendation #Thousand

When I look at the rain, I feel like drinking makgeolli.. The combination of jeon and makgeolli is good, but if you want to enjoy a variety of side dishes, I recommend Mongwoo at Gunja Station! Mongwoo is a place where you can enjoy various traditional liquors in a quiet atmosphere. Since the space is small, it is good for quiet conversations :) The most delicious menu here is stir-fried golbaengi, and the golbaengi in the right amount of seasoning is really delicious! I really recommend Mongwoo on days when you crave traditional liquor💗 #SeoulTravel #GunjaTravel #LocalRestaurant #Mongwoo #TraditionalLiquor #FolkPub #SummerIsSummer

📍Gorae Bar: 2nd floor, 58 Ttukseom-ro 57-gil, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul (Wine bar located 20 minutes away from Exit 4 of Guui Station) _ The more you know about this neighborhood, the hotter it gets..! Even the entrance is hip, but Gorae Bar sets its prices in a unique way. Unlike regular wine bars, they lower the price of wine and charge a seat fee per seat. The initial entrance fee is 5,000 won, and after 1 hour, an additional fee is charged per 10 minutes. You also have to check the menu and order food through KakaoTalk Plus Friend..! It's a very unique method, so it might be confusing at first, but the bar atmosphere is so good, and I liked it because they play LPs :) It's quiet if you go early, but the space is small, so it gets noisy quickly, so I hope you go to bed early! #SeoulTravel #GuuiTravel #IndoorDate #GoraeBar #WineBar

If you want to have a private rest in the city, how about spending some time here, at #Box Hotel? Located in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul, this was the hotel we had booked on Trip.com when we first came up from Gangneung, and it was a place that we still remember. It’s incredibly accessible from the nearby station. We walked out and arrived right away. It was a place that made me think about moving to this neighborhood. The interior is neatly organized and has a layout that makes you feel like you can just come in. If you ever have the chance to play in this neighborhood, take a look at this place. 🏨 465 Achasan-ro, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul #Ho-kang-se #Hotel #HotelRecommendation #SeoulHotel #SeoulHotelRecommendation #Seoul #SeoulTravel #PlacesToVisitInSeoul #Travel #TravelDestinationRecommendation
