Welcome to the vibrant urban oasis that might as well be Seoul’s best-kept secret.
Feb 24th, 2021
Seoul has always been known for being quite the ever-changing metropolis, with new and shiny structures popping up faster than pop culture trends. It’s no wonder that finding underrated spots that exist in a well-preserved state is practically like stepping into a time capsule. Case in point:
Yeonnam-dong, a neighbourhood in the
Mapo-gu District that’s merely blocks away from the more popular
Hongdae area. While the latter is the place-to-be among university kids, Yeonnam-dong caters to the cool 20-somethings who enjoy leisurely brunches as much as finding the next ‘it’ spot that no one has heard of yet.
