Hongik University
Hongik University is no longer just a university; it has become a representative of the entire surrounding commercial area, filled with Seoul's avant-garde and youthful atmosphere. After nightfall, performers of singing, playing instruments, and street dancing begin to perform on the streets, using the streets as their stage, often attracting crowds of spectators. Popular performers need to be thrown into the crowd to be seen. Additionally, at night, street food stalls are set up, offering a variety of down-to-earth, inexpensive, and delicious Korean snacks such as chicken skewers, grilled cheese, and spicy rice cakes, enough to satisfy anyone's appetite.
Itaewon
Itaewon Commercial Street is known as the 'Little United Nations'. Due to its proximity to Seoul's embassy district, it exudes a strong exotic atmosphere. You can often see foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes, and the area is filled with Western restaurants and creative cuisine shops, offering a variety of international delicacies. When night falls, the entire street becomes particularly charming under the neon lights. The lavishly decorated bars make Itaewon a popular gathering place and a hotspot for the nightlife of trendy locals. It is common to see long queues in front of the bars.
Myeong-dong
For those who love shopping and strolling, Myeong-dong is already a very familiar place. It is a perfect shopping paradise with numerous brand stores, Korean cosmetics, department stores, and restaurants. Even if the shops close, you might not be able to finish exploring. When night falls, if you still have energy, you can climb N Seoul Tower to enjoy the city's dazzling night view. If you want to relax, you can wear a sheep horn hat with your girlfriends or friends and enjoy a relaxing time in a Korean-style sauna, tasting black smoked eggs and sweet rice wine. Just like the locals, you can spend the night in the sauna, relieving fatigue and relaxing your mind.
