Why everyone talks about Seongsu

Once an area of shoe factories and warehouses, Seongsu-dong is now full of red-brick cafés, design shops and galleries. It is often called the Brooklyn of Seoul.

Popup store heaven

Fashion, beauty and entertainment brands open short-term popup stores here almost every week. Many offer free samples, photo zones and limited-edition goods, so check social media before you go.

Getting there

Take Seoul Subway Line 2 to Seongsu Station or Ttukseom Station. Seoul Forest park is next door and is perfect for a gentle walk during recovery.
