If you also like slow travel, this place is really not to be missed! Suyansanbang (수연산방) is a Hanok coffee shop hidden in Seongbuk-dong. It was formerly the former residence of novelist Lee Tae-joon in the 1930s. The entire building is well preserved, and it feels like time has stopped once you step inside.
Although the price is high, the moment you put it in your mouth, you will understand why everyone is willing to visit again.
We recommend that you walk here from Exit 5 of Seoul National University Station on Subway Line 4. You can also feel the artistic atmosphere of Seongbuk-dong along the way. This is a place where you can really calm down, and it is also the most impressive stop during my trip to Seoul. If you also love literature, like Korean houses, and want to slow down, Shouyansanfang is definitely worth a visit.
