[Travel in March 2024] Since our visit to Yongma Falls Park (용마폭포공원) didn’t quite go as planned (hello, dry waterfall vibes 😅), I wasn’t ready to give up on chasing waterfalls just yet! We made a spontaneous detour to Pokpo Café — a super cute spot where the main highlight isn’t just the coffee, but…
[Travel in March 2024] Suguksa Temple might be small and tucked away in the quiet corners of Eunpyeong, but it’s truly one of a kind — it’s said to be the only golden temple in Korea! ✨ With its stunning gold exterior glowing against the backdrop of lush mountains, the temple stands out beautifully, especially…
[Travel in March 2024] Seoul Children’s Grand Park is a huge family-friendly park in Seoul that offers a mix of nature, animals, and fun activities! 🌳🎠 Located in Gwangjin-gu, this park is perfect for a relaxing stroll, and the best part—it’s totally free to enter! There’s a small zoo, plenty of walking trails, and during…
[Travel in March 2024] If you’re a fan of Chinese cuisine, you’ve probably heard of Chef Lee Yeon-bok (이연복), the legendary chef who refined Menbosha (멘보샤) and made it a household name in Korea. Originally a Hong Kong-style dish, Menbosha is a deep-fried shrimp toast that became incredibly popular after Chef Lee showcased his version…
[Travel in March 2024] It’s natural to look forward to seeing cherry blossoms during a trip in March or April—it’s the perfect season with great weather (though still a bit chilly). But this year (2024) was tougher, with a significant delay. We didn’t catch any cherry blossoms at Sinchon at all—it was completely bare, haha.…
[Travel in March 2024] Just arrived from Jeju, checked into our hotel, and then headed to Myeongdong to grab our barangs. My cousin and I probably enjoyed Olive Young a little too much—we somehow ended up buying something every time we dropped by! For dinner, we split up to do our own thing. I originally…
[Travel in March 2024] It’s Shumin’s birthday today, and we have a full day planned. We started with our favorite quick drink at Twosome Place, then headed to Myeongdong for an early lunch at Shumin’s favorite, Myeongdong Kyoja (명동교자). Our day includes visits to several cafes, like 동백양과점 (Dong Baek) and SOHA SALT POND, along…
[Travel in March 2024] I actually bought about this place in 2014. 10 years later, I thought I should update the food photos haha! When visiting Korea for the first time, it’s common for most people to go to MDKJ, a famous restaurant in the country. Nowadays, they have several outlets in Myeongdong. The original…
[Travel in March 2024] I didn’t initially plan to visit this cafe because it’s quite overhyped and not very new. It’s already all over the web and needs no introduction, haha. But since it was on my way, I thought, why not grab a cup of hot milk tea? I really wanted a warm drink,…
[Travel in March 2024] I’ve had my doubts about the Salted Bread trend in Korea. It seems like every café and bakery offers it, even major chains like Paris Baguette. But are they actually as good as they’re hyped up to be? Is it worth waiting in line for them? the famous store, where they…
