One of the unique aspects of Korean cafes is the ability to witness bakers and baristas hard at work in an open kitchen setup.

My Recommendations: I am not very sure how early you have to be here if you are in a very big group but during 3plus 4, the cafe are pretty occupied. I don’t know how people doesn’t work haha. at least 70% are koreans! I think their cronuts are pretty nice, give a try. For photo worthy, get their teddy bear series! They do have bear cube too!
HELLOSIHUI’S TIPS: Get a seat first before going everywhere to take photo! It’s really hard to get a seat.
