Song Joong-ki and Song Hye-kyo’s wedding new home is here — Seoul’s exotic Itaewon

By MOOK Scenic Spots House, compiled and reported

Itaewon is situated right in the center of Yongsan District, north of the Han River, and is close to Seoul Station and Myeongdong. Due to its proximity to former U.S. military bases, the streets and atmosphere have an exotic flair. In addition to many trendy boutiques that sell carefully curated imported goods, you can also find well-known cafes, Korean local cuisine, and street food stalls in Itaewon.

Here, you can also enjoy a wide range of global dishes. The diverse food streets behind Hamilton Hotel resemble a world food expo, offering cuisines from Korea, New York, London, Thailand, India, China, Pakistan, Greece, Italy, France, Mexico, Australia, and more. Beyond savoring international flavors, you can especially feel a relaxed, welcoming, and worldly vibe like a global village.
