1. Myeongdong Soy Sauce Crab: A Taste of Korean Culinary Excellence When in Korea, you can't miss out on authentic Korean cuisine. Among the most distinctive and beloved Korean dishes, soy sauce crab ranks high. In Seoul, Myeongdong is not only a shopping paradise but also home to a restaurant known for the 'best soy sauce crab.' Special Recommendation: Soy Sauce Crab (Myeongdong Station Exit 5) This restaurant uses the freshest crabs, marinated in a secret soy sauce recipe. The crab meat is translucent and tender, with a rich flavor that is irresistible, especially the crab roe, which is so rich that you can't get enough! The classic way to enjoy it is to mix white rice with the crab roe and sauce, absorbing the salty and sweet flavors of the soy sauce and crab roe, making every bite so delicious that you'll want to eat several bowls of rice. Tip: This place is often packed, so it's recommended to make a reservation in advance or avoid peak dining hours. If you're a seafood lover, this place is definitely worth a special trip. 2. Seongsu-dong Standard Bread: The Ultimate French Toast The second stop is Seongsu-dong, Seoul's hottest hipster alley in recent years. Known as Seoul's 'hipster hub,' it's filled with stylish cafes, trendy shops, and craft stores. Standard Bread here has become a must-visit spot for its French countryside-style thick toast. As soon as you enter the store, the aroma of bread fills the air, and the warm wooden decor gives a cozy countryside feel. Their most famous item is the super thick toast, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, topped with butter, honey, or various fruits. Each bite bursts with sweetness, filling you with happiness! Whether for breakfast, afternoon tea, or photo ops, this place won't disappoint. Reminder: There's usually a long line, so it's best to come early to avoid the afternoon rush! 3. Gentle Monster Dosan Flagship Store: Tekken Limited-Time Exhibition Seoul is not only a food haven but also a hub for trendy culture. If you want to experience the cutting edge of Korean design and technology, you must visit the Gentle Monster Dosan Flagship Store. It's not just an eyewear store but a trendy space filled with artistic vibes. Gentle Monster recently collaborated with the classic fighting game 'Tekken' to create a futuristic-themed exhibition. Here, you can create your own game character, customizing everything from appearance to fighting style. Even cooler, you can make a personalized game disc with your character to take home as a keepsake! Tip: This place is perfect for photos, so wear stylish and unique outfits to blend in with the artistic atmosphere of the store!

- The weather in Korea this time is really nice ☀️ Both the sunshine and I are bright 📍P2-5 Tamburins It is said that Jennie's photo wall in Sinsa-dong has become a meeting point for Chinese people in Korea 🇰🇷. 🚇 Take subway line 3 to Sinsa Station, exit 8, and then search for Tamburins in the navigation to get there. The front photo wall is larger, while the side one is smaller. It is recommended to stand farther away to capture the whole view. 📍P6-7 Gentle Monster Walk forward from Tamburins, and you will see the huge Jennie advertisement wall of GM. 📍P8 Don’t lxxk up When you come to Korea, you must take a four-frame life photo. There are many creative scenes, and you can find one every few steps around Sinsa-dong. If you find an interesting and fun scene, be sure to take a photo. This shop is highly recommended, with a big X as the store sign. You can exchange money in the machine inside, which only recognizes 1000 won bills. 📍P9-17 City Walk Casual Photos In addition to some iconic check-in points, the rest of the street scenes in Sinsa-dong are also good for photos. There are many colorful road signs and crisscrossing antennas on the roadside, which are very characteristic of Korea 🇰🇷.

Recently, the brand GENTLE MONSTER is getting more and more fire. It is a local glasses brand in Korea. It was founded in 2011 and is the love of young people and hipsters in Korea. The reason why the brand is so popular is not only because of its price and style, but also because each of its stores has a theme style, and it also combines different stories, so that people cant see it at all. What to sell, and experience shopping slowly while watching the show is also very special. This scene I went to is a story of a white crow. There is a Chinese book on the first floor. It is like watching an art exhibition all the way up. It is not forbidden to take pictures. In order to maintain mystery, I will not reveal the story. If you have the opportunity to go, you can feel it yourself.
