[KOREA] 익선동 IKSEONDONG, JEWEL IN THE CITY CENTER

Sometimes i wondering why Korea always offers something new and hype even this country can be said SMALL. Like this post, i quite confused, why suddenly this area become super hype out of nowhere ( or just me? ㅋㅋ). As you know, usually Jung-gu area pretty traditional cafe street famous with Samcheongdong or Insadong but for me IT MUCH PRETTIER THAN THOSEEE it like a small complex of hanok but fulls by cafe and restaurant. I doubt nobody hates this ♡ so here in this post, i will share with you some my beginner shots and some hype recommendations

WHAT I ORDERED
[Left] 식혜아이스크림

TASTE 8/10
