[2025 Seoul Attraction] Travel Guide for Haebangchon (Updated Mar)

When I visited Haebangchon Market, I was struck by its unique atmosphere where tradition and modernity harmoniously coexist. As I walked along the market alleys, I noticed a mix of old shops and newly opened, characterful stores. The quaint market vibe combined with trendy cafes and eateries gave Haebangchon its distinctive charm. In particular, the food I tasted at the small eateries within the market was heartwarming. The homemade dishes, though not flashy, were rich in flavor. There were also small craft beer pubs and vintage shops scattered around, offering visitors a special experience. Walking through the alleys, I encountered murals and art pieces, adding to the fun of exploring the market. Despite its lively atmosphere, Haebangchon Market exuded a sense of relaxation and comfort. It was a place where the old and new coexisted, allowing for diverse cultural experiences and interactions with people. It had a unique charm that couldn't be felt in other parts of Seoul, making it a market I would love to visit again.

The international district of Seoul (Itaewon, Haebangchon, Noksapyeong) typically offers a wide variety of international restaurants within the area. Morocco cafe offers very nice and authentic Moroccan dishes such as Tajine, kebabs, mint tea etc for diners. This cafe is also a very good hang out place as it offers a veranda, which allows diners to dine outdoor while enjoying the atmosphere of the surroundings. This restaurant is opened for lunch till dinner at 10pm. For those longing for a light snack, there is also a bread shop across the road called Casablanca cafe, specialized in selling moroccan bread. #moroccan#seoul#haebangchon

#Hotspot As I walked along the alley in Huam-dong, I stumbled upon a trendy new café by chance. It's so close to Sookmyung Women's University Station that you can even walk there. This place has a strong sense of aesthetic, making it perfect for a romantic date or a peaceful retreat with your furry friend. What impressed me the most was how beautifully the café was photographed. Of course, the weather also played a part, but the ambiance itself is nothing short of remarkable. 🏷 Ovio • Open daily from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm #Huam-dongCafe #HaebangchonCafe #Ovio

A prettier road when you walk together, #Haebangchon With the liberation in 1945, people who returned from overseas, people who came to South Korea from the North, and people who fled due to the Korean War settled here, and it came to be called Haebangchon. The places inside have now changed into modern things (bars/cafes), but the overall appearance of the neighborhood still retains its old appearance, so it was a good place to walk comfortably while feeling the emotions of that time. 🕊 Take bus number 402 or 405 and get off at Huam Medicinal Water (03170) 🕊 Otherwise, you can enjoy hiking #HotPlace #Seoul #SeoulTravel #PlacesToVisitInSeoul #SeoulSuburbs #SeoulDate #Itaewon #ItaewonTravel #Travel #TravelDestinationRecommendation

📍97-5 Sinheung-ro, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, 2nd floor of Naeje This is a cafe with an exotic and Korean feel. As the name ‘Typewriter’ cafe suggests, there are typewriters and typewriter-shaped props on the counter. The typewriter on the counter has nice writings written on it, as shown in the photo, which makes you feel happy from the moment you order. Basically, one drink per person is the rule, and outside food is not allowed! I ordered a chocolate typewriter, and the coffee was really strong and the chocolate tasted good. The drink came out in a cup with my favorite picture on it, so it felt even more special :) Next time I go, I want to try the black sesame rice cake, which is made like a waffle! ‘Typewriter notebooks’ are placed all over the table. You can write a story on the first page of the notebook according to the theme written by the owner. It felt like a guestbook with an added layer of emotion. I didn’t write anything, but it was so nice to be able to read people’s stories! There were so many warm words. You can also choose other typewriter notebooks at the counter. I highly recommend reading them when you visit! It was also nice to sit and look at the sky through the large window. I visited during the day, but this place is actually known as a sunset restaurant! I recommend it if you want to see the sunset while visiting Haebangchon. #CafeRecommendation #SeoulTravel #Cafe #DateCourse #SunsetRestaurant #CafeWithAGoodView

Haebangchon is a place where you can really feel the unique sensibility! I think it's one of the places that's prettier at night than during the day. Today, I'll recommend a Haebangchon restaurant. 🍴Haebangchon Restaurant #Ukababsang -1 Sinheung-ro 12-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul - Closed on Mondays and Tuesdays • 16:00-22:00 This is a fusion Korean restaurant called 'Ukababsang' located in Haebangchon. It's famous for being on Lee Young-ja's list of delicious restaurants.ㅎㅎ Since it's a place that 'foodie' Lee Young-ja acknowledges, doesn't it make you trust it more!? There are more seats than you'd think, and the interior is pretty, so it's a place where you won't get bored while waiting. 'Ukababsang' is highly recommended for those who want to try various menus! There's a 'half menu', so you can order a little bit without worrying about the priceㅎㅎ I think this is a big advantage of Ukababsang! The signature menus are uni pasta, abalone risotto, anchovy garlic shoot pasta, and grilled salmon. I could feel that all the ingredients were fresh! Especially the abalone risotto was really delicious! You should definitely try it👍🤤 When I came out after dinner, it was already dark. The night view was really pretty! It's one of the great things about Haebangchonㅎㅎ In spring or fall, it would be great to enjoy a second round on the terrace! Haebangchon for a dinner date~~!! I highly recommend itㅎㅎ💯 #Seoul travel #Good atmosphere #Haebangchon restaurants #Haebangchon #Fusion Korean food #Insta hot place #Restaurant recommendation #Night view restaurants #Restaurant tour

My dears, the sunset and night view of Seoul are simply breathtaking! At sunset, the first choice is Jiefang Village in Itaewon. At Urban Cliff and Noop Cafe, you can watch the sun slowly set, and the afterglow of the sun shines on Namsan Mountain and the city buildings. The whole world is dyed in warm orange, which is so romantic that it makes people speechless. As night falls, the Seoul Tower becomes a great viewing spot. Take the cable car to the top of the tower and you can take in all the lights of Seoul. The bright lights and the starry sky complement each other, and the love locks add to the romance under the lights. The Moonlight Rainbow Fountain on Banpo Bridge is also not to be missed. The bridge lights and the water curtain show complement each other, weaving a gorgeous picture in the night sky. There is also Hannan Cave, which is gilded at dusk, and the Beiyue Octagonal Pavilion with its eaves flying under the moonlight, like a poetic night scene. The sunset and night view of Seoul are all great movies in any shot. Come and experience this ultimate romance💕. #Seoul Itinerary
