Line Friends Flagship Store, Itaewon
[Travel in December 2015]
Previously, I have blogged the Line Flagship Store at Sinsa, and I’m really sure, this one at Itaewon is even worth the visit! ๐ There’s a total of 3 flagship store in Seoul right now, and, the one in Itaewon make you speechless and wish that you have bring more cash to buy everything back! ๐ A building of total 3 storey high, with a concept cafe at the top level is a must visit too. A place to have a drink before impulsive purchase :p
and guess who, is waiting for us at the doorstep? ๐
its just level 1 and, there’s so much things to buy!!!
I think we probably spent 30mins (at least) at level 1 just plainly taking photos haha :p
Proceed to level 2 now ๐ woohooo!~
Level 2 is full of clothings + home living! How i wish i can bring them back too!
I want the Lamp! I want the Bear! I want the Quilt! Aiya, I want to bring all home! :/
Level 3, the cafe! ๐
Naughty Brown ate Sally Macarons :p
Dont you want to have everything!?

#we actually waited for quite awhile, before the person went off!!!

Omg so colourful and bright! I didn’t get a chance to visit any of the Line flagship stores when I went to Seoul last year, can’t wait for my next trip and gonna check this place out.
Hi Elle,
Yeah, its very cute here, do visit the one in Itaewon! ๐
hi,
will you recommend the store at Sinsa or Itaewon?
I think the Itaewon is much more worth seeing! ๐
and also, which one is easier to locate and more seating?
The one at Itaewon is alot bigger, whether the cafe size or the shop size. Itaewon’s have even more merchandises too. Actually both are very very easy to spot. But as compare, Itaewon is much more nearer to the subway station than the one at Sinsa ๐
Hi, can you recommend the cafe’s food/drinks specialty? hehe and the ones you’ve order…hehe
Hi Hi!! I ordered a Milk Tea, which comes with a glass bottle that I eventually took back home too! :p
We ordered the macaroons as well, and a swiss roll! ๐
I have had disappoint experience with frindstore at Itaewon. I purchased line stuff for 165,000 won, pay by cash and then got tax free 9,900 won. The customer service advised me to get refund at their own machine. I said to her that I want to get cash for my refund. I didn’t know why, She asked me for my card, and did something with my card. I got 9,900 won cash but then later on, my card has charged by AUD 11.56 which is equal with 9,900 won. I can’t do dispute process because I am already in Australia and I don’t know how to contact line store Itaewon. The dispute process required me to contact the merchandise company before start to make a dispute
I am very disappoint with it.
Hi! I am sorry that you have a upset experience with Line Friend store.
I am not sure regards to the tax refund in Line Store.
But, from my past experience with tax refund in Korea is that you need to claim your tax refund at Airport –
Simple procedure: Scan Receipt before Immigration and Claim after Immigrations.
I did claimed cash at boutique before and its a little complicated so I never did that again (I thought its a little troublesome) Claim Tax Refund Cash procedure is as mentioned like your case. First there’s some procedure with your Credit Card, and they will handle you cash, and you still need to go through the scan/chop at airport for your tax refund. Without doing so, the merchant will get back your tax refund via your Credit Card. It’s a type of protection to them as they need to ensure you get all the procedure right.
Hope you understand the Korea’s tax refund method next time.
As for contacting Itaewon Flagship store, I have no idea how to as well.
