Hongik University, the freedom of youth



When you think of Hongik University, what can you think of?
The energy and passion from students?
Yes, Hongik university has many interesting places that has unique atmosphere.
So, I recommend you to visit some famous places in Hongdae to explore new world!



First, sang-sang ma dang(상상마당) is very good place to start.
This artistically designed building mostly work as gallery and auditorium.
The unique thing about here is you can find brand-new artists' work.

Especially those who are interested in art would love here.
Also, they sell designed stationary in reasonable price so it work as great gift as well.




After exploring the rising artists' work, you may feel hungry.
There is absolutely great Korean restaurant right across the street.
It is called 나물먹는곰 in Korean.

Many people refer Korean food as traditional image with healthy ingredients.
However, you will be surprised by the restaurant's interior design.
It is modern and stylish so everyone would love it.



The most famous menu is Bibimbab.
You can choose between hot paper paste and soy sauce.
They have a wide selection of wine and if you order Bibimbab at lunch,
You can enjoy full meal in a reduced cost.



After finishing your meal,
I recommend you to walk around Hongdae playground.



This playground use in a variety of purpose that many students sell goods
such as hand-made accessories, t-shirts, stationeries and so on.

Also, at night, you can listen music from the music band.




For the last course, you can enjoy coffee or beer at café Aa.
This cafe is run by furniture designer that has exotic decorations.

Especially, Aa’s raspberry cupcake is absolutely gorgeous!





I made the Hongdea tour course with my favorite places.
If you have foreigner friends,
they would fall in love with Korea after visiting these wonderful places.




And here is recipe for Bibimbab in case you want to try to make your own Bibimbab!
