Hongik University
Hongik University is no longer just a university - it has become the representation of the entire surrounding commercial district, filled with a trendy and youthful atmosphere. After dark, street performers entertain crowds with singing and dancing on makeshift stages set up on the streets, attracting large audiences. Popular performers often need to throw their acts amid the crowds to be seen. Additionally, street food vendors set up along the streets at night for cheap and delicious Korean snacks such as chicken skewers, grilled cheese, and stir-fried rice cakes, satisfying the taste buds of many.
Gangnam-gu, Seoul
The Gangnam district's commercial area, Laitaiin Street, is known as the "Small United Nations" due to its proximity to the embassy area of Seoul, which gives it a strong exotic atmosphere. It's not uncommon to see foreigners with blonde hair and blue eyes, and there are Western and creative restaurants everywhere where visitors can taste delicacies from various countries. After the night falls, the street becomes particularly charming under the neon lights, and the gorgeously decorated bars make Laitaiin a popular gathering place and a hot spot for the nightlife of trendy men and women, often with long queues in front of the bars.
Myeong-dong
For people who love shopping, Myeong-dong is already a very familiar place. It gathers major brand stores, Korean cosmetics, department stores, restaurants, etc., making it a perfect shopping paradise that might not be finished even after the stores close. After dark, if there is still energy, you can climb up the N Seoul Tower to enjoy the splendid night view of the city; if you want to relax, you can also wear a sheep horn hat with your girlfriends or friends to enjoy a relaxing time in the Korean-style sauna, taste black smoked eggs and sweet rice wine, and spend the night in the sauna like a local to soothe fatigue and relax your mind.
