I live in Hongdae, Seoul (see what my apartment looks like over here), and my neighborhood has tons of cool things to do and see. Come here if you’re looking for a salsa club in Seoul, photography lessons or cute cafes in Seoul! Let me know what you think about my hood! π

.____. reading your blog makes me so.. jealous!! lovely place you got!! π
Yea, come hang out next time π
unfortunately, I couldn’t enjoy Hongdae as much as I wanted when I came to Seoul but I really liked it(I still had time to go to this famous white luxury noraebang π )!!’Hope to come again one day!!!^^
Hey, my girlfriend is looking to move into a place in Hongdae similar to what you have. Do you know of any trustworthy λΆλμ°’s around the area (ν©μ works too).
Also, when you went apartment hunting did you go by yourself or did you have a local accompany you? I’m Gyopo but my Korean makes me sound like a foreigner and my girlfriend isn’t Korean so… any tips? Time sensitive so, any tips would appreciated. Thanks!
sorry for the late response. I went to the real estate agencies by myself. I don’t believe any real estate agency would try to swindle you. They might be a bit pushy to get you to sign, but most will try their best to show you a place you like. If they don’t got it, they’ll tell you straight.
I think this post might be helpful:

We’ve been staying in Hongdae for a few days now. Such a nice place to stay in! I like the bars and restaurants here!
hope to visit you in hongdae one day…
Any recommendations for a bar with live music? Not a club? I was in Hongdae last weekend, but I couldn’t find anything like that. Got there around 10pm and there weren’t even any street performers. π¦
Nice blog dude…I’m also a gyopo who lives in hongdae lol
Where u usually chill? Come out to Zen bar sometime lolol
You live where the party’s at (; haha
Well, maybe shame on me but I didn’t know Hongdae before your video but it looks like a really nice place. For me, it’s a perfect explain let me explain why: I love music, and to sit in a cafe…read a book or to be on a computer ( like I used to do in each starbucks π ), to be in quiet place but I’m a city girl too and to see people hang out, to hang out with my friends.
I would like to come in Korea ( for soon ) and now I know that I can come to hongdae and I’ll like it^^ So thanks for your video!
Awesome!!! Gotta explore more into Hongdae in my next visit, probably in November this year. ^^V
I’m looking for that grimey, subculture shit that I’ve never experienced visiting my dad in Seoul every year. I want to see what the underground music and art scene is like. He’s always just nervous about my safety because he only had me 3 months out of the year. But now that I’m 20 I want to explore more. I’m a simple girl with simple tastes and I don’t like to spend a lot of money. Clearly I’m at the wrong blog but since you have a lot of ties to the Korean American community there I was wondering if you knew of any blogs you could refer me to. They’re pretty hard to find via Google.
Try chinchamag.co.uk. They might have what you’re looking for
hey i found your blog through seoulistic.com and it’s great! looking forward to more posts π i’ve been to Seoul twice and i love the Hongdae area too. I stayed there when i visited in fall this year and i will be staying there again when i go again in Mar next year. Look forward to exploring more interesting and less known parts of Hongdae!
I love your Blog. I’m going to Korea in April for 2 weeks. Just my little vacay π and also to see if I like it. I might accept this job offer there with yonsei
Can I just say, (without being creepy) you are very handsome! And I really enjoyed your video π oh! And also ill be coming to Korea in August to teach English, maybe ill run into you … not literally I hope lol:)
