The main reason why Yunluo recommends it is its special appearance and design that is different from ordinary steam rooms. Don't be fooled by the small door, the content inside is unusually rich! Generally, you need to take off your shoes at the door of the steam room, and then walk barefoot throughout the whole process. The first floor is the main service desk, and you will be given a key after buying the ticket.
You can lock your shoes in. The second floor is the shower room, storage room, barber shop and store. The third floor is the main purpose of foreigners coming here - the sauna. There are traditional Korean saunas, salt saunas, loess saunas, ice saunas, etc. There is a very large lounge in the middle, where many people watch TV and sleep with mats.
After getting hot in the sauna, it is so comfortable to buy a cup of sweet rice wine and rest here. There are many entertainment facilities on the fourth floor, as well as automatic coin-operated massage machines and some simple fitness equipment. The fifth floor is mainly for men and women's personal lounges, computer rooms and cinemas. Let's take a look at Yunluo's sauna snacks. I like Korean sweet rice wine the most. The sauna curtain can be stayed overnight.
If you don't plan to stay overnight, it is recommended to go back to your resting place early, because there are many drunk people wandering on the streets in Itaewon at night, which may not be so safe. Safety comes first when you are out!
Let's continue the route that combines "classic" and "modern". Let Yunluo take you to the Dongdaemun area! Day 5: Gwangjang Market → Daehakno Ewha Mural Village + Naksan Park → Kyung Hee University Cherry Blossom Viewing → Shilla Duty Free Shop → Dongdaemun Night Tour Breakfast: Gwangjang Market to taste traditional food Lunch: Daehakno to taste Vietnamese special fried rice noodles Dinner.
Reward yourself with Dongdaemun Basa Barbecue After getting up in the morning and packing up, you can go to Gwangjang Market! Take Subway Line 1 to Jongno 5-ga Station, Exit 8, and walk a little further. Compared to the Tongin Market introduced earlier, the scale of Gwangjang Market can be said to be several times larger! In addition to selling a variety of delicacies here.
There are daily necessities, silk, hanbok, traditional Korean food, souvenirs, clothes and shoes! In Gwangjang Market, you can see the Korean market style that is not available in commercial shopping streets. When you pass by the snack stalls, the aunties will warmly greet you to sit down. Now there are more Chinese people going there, and almost every boss can speak some simple Chinese.
So don't worry about communication problems. The drunken crabs just served in the morning are so delicious that you will get drunk just by smelling them. Traditional Korean pickles are also available in vacuum packaging. They are really good at doing business! Thumbs up! The market is very lively early in the morning! Foodies from all walks of life gather here, haha. A major feature of Gwangjang Market! It is called in Korean, and in Chinese it is mung bean pancake.
But Yunluo felt that it tasted more like potato cakes (⊙﹏⊙) Pig's trotters, rice sausage and sesame seaweed rice rolls. Then there were all kinds of seafood! A Chinese couple was trying to eat live octopus, and many people took out their cameras to take pictures, haha. I was accidentally visited! Because breakfast should not be too greasy, Yunluo finally chose the tradition of Gwangjang Market - sesame seaweed rice rolls.
A small plate of rice is enough for two people for 2,000 won. If you feel it is too dry, you can have a cup of sweet rice wine. It costs 1,000 won a cup. After eating at Gwangjang Market, walk along Jongno 5-ga towards Daehak-ro for about 15 minutes and you will reach the middle school at the entrance of Ewha Mural Village. Turn right when you see the middle school. At the end of the road, turn left and you will see a sign for the Ewha Mural Village.
Walk about 100 meters inside and you will see the entrance stairs. Here even the simplest doorbell can be turned into a work of art. The walls are covered with sweet words left by lovers. The Dreamcatcher Cafe, which became very popular because of the Heirs, is covered with art in front of the two most famous mural stairs in the entire Ewha Mural Village.
The little rabbit next to it is to remind everyone to keep quiet, because there are still local residents living here. The black part on the left side of the second painting, if Yunluo remembers correctly, should be the one painted by the male and female protagonists in the Thai version of Full House when they came to Ewha Village in the drama, what a pity! The newly painted mural features two Korean superstars Lee Min Ho and Kim Soo Hyun.
Is Yunluo the only one who thinks the painting is ugly? Going up along the mural village is the famous Luoshan Park. I met an old lady and her dog on the road. The grandma's flowery clothes reflected the spring flowers and were so beautiful. The flowers on the roadside are all in bloom. At the top of the park, pigeons are leisurely foraging. There are all kinds of houses on the distant mountains. A couple wearing red couple T-shirts are exercising hand in hand.
It makes people envious! Beautiful Naksan Park. Many Korean dramas have been filmed here. It is also a good choice to come here to enjoy the night view at night. Yunluo came here to enjoy the moon on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival last year. After visiting Naksan Park, go down the mountain towards Hyehwa Station and you will reach the very famous University Road in Korea! Because Seoul University used to be.
It is named after the many universities such as Sungkyunkwan University. Although Seoul National University has moved far away from the city, it does not affect the liveliness of this place at all. When it comes to mealtime, all kinds of students and young people will come out in droves, which is so lively! Yunluo is going to recommend a Vietnamese restaurant on Daehak-ro this time!
I believe that everyone may be a little tired of Korean food after eating it for several days. In Korea, in addition to the popular Chinese restaurants, there are also many delicious Vietnamese, Thai and other Southeast Asian restaurants. The name of this restaurant is: bánhph?6 (haha. Yunluo doesn't know how to pronounce it, if spelled in English it is banhph06) and the address is.
1-87?1? (1-87, Dongsung-dong, Jongno-gu, Seoul, is located in a very conspicuous position on the first floor beside the road) The Vietnamese restaurant's rice noodles are always very famous. Yunluo ordered their fried rice noodles. For Yunluo, a southerner who is used to eating rice noodles, it is like the taste of home!
The next stop is the long-awaited Kyung Hee University! This is where the annual Baeksang Art Awards are held. The buildings here are all European classical style, and the fresh and elegant cherry blossoms make any photo look like a picture, right?! Every April, the number of Koreans who come here to enjoy the cherry blossoms is no less than that of Yeouido.
Go straight ahead after entering the main gate and you will reach the central area of Kyung Hee University. There are many people who come here to enjoy the cherry blossoms and have picnics. Many of them come in groups of friends, and they treat the university as a park. To the right of the main building is the venue for the annual Baeksang Arts Awards - the Peace Hall. The Peace Hall is even more beautiful against the cherry blossoms.
Climb up the hill to the top of the Art Department Building. Overlooking the entire Kyung Hee University, do you feel like you are looking down on all the mountains? After visiting Kyung Hee University, we can go back to the Dongdaemun area. In front of Exit 5 of Dongdaemun History and Culture Park Subway Station, there is a free shuttle bus for Shilla Duty Free Shop!
The Dongdaemun route runs every 30 minutes, and the Myeongdong route runs every hour, so you have to manage your time well. If you find it troublesome to wait for the bus, you can just take a taxi! The Shilla Duty Free Shop will reimburse the rich! Just bring your passport and the fare receipt to the service desk on the first floor to exchange for a voucher that can be used as cash, with a minimum of 5,000 won and a maximum of 20,000 won.
Everyone, please be careful not to exceed the limit. For dinner, Yunluo would like to recommend to everyone the Eight Colors BBQ in Dongdaemun! Because you will be shopping in Dongdaemun at night, of course you need to replenish your energy! Although most of the people who go to Eight Colors BBQ are foreigners. But Yunluo thinks that their restaurant is still very suitable for Chinese people's taste.
Yunluo checked the Korean website and found many good reviews. It turns out that the world of foodies is connected! Moreover, the eight different colors of barbecue taste more unique than ordinary barbecue. A set meal of 30,000 won is enough for four people! However, Yunluo, as a top foodie, finished it with two people!
Address: 18-84, 6-gil, Euljiro, Jung-gu, Seoul. After eating, you can start shopping! Doota and Lotte Fitin are Yunluo's most recommended stores. There are also shopping malls of various styles around. You can take your time to shop around!
The itinerary recommended by Yunluo a few days ago was basically wandering around Jiangbei. From today, we will stroll around Jiangbei's Konkuk University and then slowly move to the area. In the evening, we will visit Banpo Han River Park at night to truly experience the leisure life of Koreans after dinner. Day 6: Konkuk University area → Sinsa Boulevard Small Shops → Major Brokerage Companies → COEX → Banpo Han River Park Night Tour Breakfast.
Rainbow Cake in Container Mall Lunch: Experience high-end Korean set meals in Cheongdam-dong Dinner: The secret food shop that celebrities love the most - Dr. An's Fiery Grilled Sausage Everyone knows that Ewha University and Hongdae are very lively. But there is another university in Seoul that is definitely as lively as these two schools, and that is Konkuk University!
There are up to 200,000 people here every day! There is a food street with countless food stores, Lotte Department Store, Lotte Cinema, Seoul's Super Hwaguk Street, and recently, the first pup-up shopping center in Korea and the world's largest pup-up shopping center, monground, was newly built! Various containers are combined into a large shopping and entertainment plaza.
It will definitely bring you a brand new shopping experience. Take the subway line 2 to the Jianda Entrance Station, exit from Exit 6 and walk straight ahead for about 5 minutes to see it! Yunlu recommends that you come here on an empty stomach in the morning, because there is the legendary rainbow cake here! There are various performances in the center of the shopping mall.
Surrounded by people watching the fun, you can tell how crowded it is just by looking down from above! Inside and outside, upstairs and downstairs, there are people everywhere! It's really dazzling to go in and take a look, all kinds of novel things. The clothes are all good-looking and cheap! Super interesting shoes. An Chuyu and the baby can wear parent-child shoes.
Because they just opened and were giving away shopping bags, there were so many people lining up. After visiting the monground, walk towards the subway station. There are many small alleys nearby that you can also visit. Jianda Huaguo Street is at the deepest end of the alley. There are so many Chinese signs, various Chinese restaurants, Chinese food stores, and money exchange offices.
The lamb skewers and spicy hot pot here are very famous. Celebrities such as Missa, Zhou Mi, and Changmin of TVXQ have been here. If you walk out and head towards the subway, you will see the Lotte Department Store in Konkuk University. The underground shopping street here is also worth a visit. There are many discounts, and the clothes in the newly opened young fashion store are both cheap and beautiful.
After visiting Jianda, take the subway to Line 3, Sinsa Station, Exit 8, and walk straight ahead for about 7 minutes. Turn into the alley in front of the Enterprise Bank and you will see the famous Boulevard. When Yunluo passed by, he met two Japanese An Chuyu who were looking for the way, so he took them there. He communicated in Korean all the way and was praised for his good Korean.
Although it is a small thing, it represents the image of the entire Chinese people in foreign countries. It is a real pleasure to help others. What you must not miss when you come to Garosu-gil is LineFriends! This store in Sinsa is the largest in Korea! It has three floors. It is a paradise for those who like Line.
As soon as you enter the door, you will see a huge Brown Bear. Girls are all vying to take photos with him. He looks so aggrieved when being touched. Haha, every corner reveals the message of "cute to death"! In the cafe below, all kinds of cute things are waiting to be eaten! Look again! If you look again, Yunluo will eat you! All kinds of cute things you can think of are available!
I'm going to show off the limited edition LINEXLAMY collaboration fountain pen that I managed to grab before. For lunch, Yunlu recommends the high-end Korean set meal - ?? (Qilliang). Korean set meal is the pinnacle of Korean cuisine. The restaurant has the high-end quality selected as "Seoul's Safe Food Store", and all the food ingredients are natural.
The food is made on the same day it is purchased, so that every diner can enjoy the freshest and most delicious natural taste. You can also enjoy Korean traditional performances for free when eating here. Because it is a high-end Korean set meal, the price is relatively high, and the average consumption per person is about 40,000 won or more. Although each item looks a little bit, you will burst when you eat it because of the super rich variety!
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!
Address: 68-5? (68-5, Cheongdam-dong, Seoul) After lunch, walk a little forward, pass the three-way intersection, and then walk a little left to the area with the most Korean entertainment companies! Are you excited to chase stars? Cube, JYP, FNC, SM are all there, it's a paradise for star chasers!
The first thing I saw when I went there from the route Yunluo introduced was Cube, but because the sign was not obvious, Yunluo didn't see it at all when he first went there! It was only when he went back later that he saw it (⊙﹏⊙) Then there was JYP. Yunluo was lucky enough to see Suzy on the day she went there. Because she got into the nanny car too quickly, I didn't take a picture of her at all!
I came back to look at the photos and found that Yunluo seemed to have been warned by the security uncle? Haha Then there are SM and FNC. The parking lots of the two companies are separated by a road. You can imagine how close they are, right? Yunluo wanted to talk about the Sweet Potato couple again, what should I do? I actually like the Winnie couple more. On the day Yunluo went there, there was no one waiting outside the SM entrance to eat.
I was also surprised when Yunluo came back and found a guesthouse between SM and JYP! It is the best place for star chasers, isn't it! ? Living here, you can stay in front of the company until what time you want without any pressure. The name is on the picture, it is called Cheongdam Guesthouse, which literally means Cheongdam Guesthouse.
The official website is in both Chinese and Japanese and it is a guesthouse exclusively for women. It seems that many star-chasing girls have come to stay here. After visiting several major agencies, of course you can't miss COEX located in Samseong Station!
The newly opened SMtown here is much bigger than the peripheral store in Myeongdong! There are all kinds of SM family peripherals that will make you want to buy kidneys! Song Xiaoqian's signature left at the opening ceremony. Personally, I think the two peripheral bags of FX and EXO are the most beautiful. In addition to SMtown, the interior of COEX will definitely make you high.
There are not only many trendy clothing stores, but also Hyundai Department Store, Lotte Duty Free Shop, and Chil-Star Casino. In addition, there is also an aquarium where Xiu Xia and Comet kissed each other in tears in "I Hear Your Voice"! It is said that the airport here can also check in luggage directly! For dinner, Yunluo recommended a restaurant called (Dr. An's Fiery Grilled Sausage).
Celebrities usually love to eat at hidden but delicious restaurants. This "Dr. An's Fiery Grilled Sausage" located near the lobby is a secret food restaurant that gathers all kinds of celebrities! The walls here are covered with autographed photos of celebrities, such as the number one beauty Kim Tae-hee, beautiful actress Lee Da-hae, and Super Junior members Choi Si-won, Kyu-hyun, and Leeteuk.
Changmin from TVXQ, Kim Jong-kook from Running Man, Lee Bo-young and Ji Sung, the model couple in the entertainment industry, etc. Address: 277-2?1? (1st floor, 277-2, Nonhyeon-dong, Seoul) After eating, you can directly add a portion of purple rice fried rice, and the chicken is delicious! After eating and drinking, of course you have to go to the Han River to take a look!
Yunluo would like to recommend to everyone the Banpo Han River Park, which is famous for its musical fountain! The opening hours of the musical fountain vary according to the season. For reference, please refer to the following: April, June, September, and October. Weekdays (20 minutes each time) 12:00, 20:00, 20:30, 21:00.

Turn right at the intersection of the express bus terminal. Go along Banpo Road towards Banpo Bridge, and you will reach Banpo Han River Park through the underground passage. When I arrived at Moonlight Rainbow Plaza, I caught up with the 8:20 show. When the music of yourisemeup sounded in the entire plaza, it was really shocking!
With the colorful fountains, the Nanshan Tower looming in the distance, and the evening breeze blowing, there is really no more comfortable after-dinner walk than this. It really looks like a rainbow! The other side of the Rainbow Square is also colorful. Many couples walk hand in hand here. So far. Yunluo's day 6 tour ends here.
One-day tour around Seoul: Hyundai Gimpo Outlets, Paju Heyri Cultural Park Chapter 3: Return home safely After visiting Seoul, there are of course more places worth visiting around Seoul. The first one is Hyundai's outlet in Gimpo - Hyundai Premium Outlets Gimpo Store! (To be continued...)
