Sosomilmil Picture Book Store

📚 A picture book nerd's paradise! A healing review of Gyeongju's "Sosomilmil" bookstore 🌿 During my trip to Gyeongju, I was looking for a quiet and cozy place off the main street of Hwangridan-gil, and discovered "Sosomilmil," a picture bookstore! True to its name, it was a place where I could experience small, dense happiness, so I absolutely had to leave a review. 🏡 A warm and cozy space Sosomilmil is housed in a cozy hanok building, creating a sense of peace and tranquility from the moment I stepped inside. The sunlight streaming in through the floor-to-ceiling windows and the wooden interior create a warm and cozy atmosphere. Unlike noisy cafes, I loved the quiet atmosphere, allowing me to truly focus on my books. 🎨 A delightful collection of picture books for both the eyes and the soul The bookstore's walls are lined with a truly diverse selection of picture books. • Picture books for adults: I was impressed by the dedicated section dedicated to adult picture books, which go beyond simple fairy tales and offer meaning and comfort. Many of the books' covers were soothing to the eyes. • Diverse international works: In addition to Korean picture books, there were also many unique works by international authors that are rarely seen, which was a real treat. I also enjoyed reading the bookmarks and Post-it notes on the wall with the owner's brief introductions and reviews. They were a huge help in choosing books. 🎁 Special Souvenirs and Goods The store wasn't just about books; they also sold cute and adorable postcards, stickers, and stationery, seemingly created in collaboration with picture book authors. As a souvenir of my trip, I bought a small postcard along with a picture book, and it became a small but very happy souvenir.
