[2025 Seoul Attraction] Travel Guide for Haebangchon (Updated Apr)

When I visited Haebangchon Market, I was struck by its unique atmosphere where tradition and modernity harmoniously coexist. As I walked along the market alleys, I noticed a mix of old shops and newly opened, characterful stores. The quaint market vibe combined with trendy cafes and eateries gave Haebangchon its distinctive charm. In particular, the food I tasted at the small eateries within the market was heartwarming. The homemade dishes, though not flashy, were rich in flavor. There were also small craft beer pubs and vintage shops scattered around, offering visitors a special experience. Walking through the alleys, I encountered murals and art pieces, adding to the fun of exploring the market. Despite its lively atmosphere, Haebangchon Market exuded a sense of relaxation and comfort. It was a place where the old and new coexisted, allowing for diverse cultural experiences and interactions with people. It had a unique charm that couldn't be felt in other parts of Seoul, making it a market I would love to visit again.

Seoul's new hotspot "Liberation Village" 🌷In addition to the familiar Seongsu-dong, Ikseon-dong, etc., there is also a new place in South Korea this year called Liberation Village. Jiefang Village is basically near Nanshan, on a slope, so it is very close to Nanshan Tower! All transportation is convenient by taking a bus or having a car, because it is really a super steep road🤣 There are several photo locations and attractions here 💖 1️⃣The first one is Sky Staircase 108, which is an attraction with a historical background to commemorate the war heroes. There is an elevator that looks like a small tram. The view from the elevator to the fourth floor is very beautiful! The nearby houses are also very beautiful~🌷 📍후암동 108계단 해방촌 Seoul Liberation Village Sky Staircase 108 2️⃣You can see the overpass location of Nanshan Tower up close, because it is at the foot of Nanshan Tower! 📍Bus stop: 용암초등학교입구.이태원주공아파트 (버스정류장) 03148 Walk up the mountain for about 1 minute and you will see the overpass. Note that you need to take the underground passage to Jiefang Village. 3️⃣ Jiefang Village Emerging Market - This is a small covered outdoor market with many Korean restaurants. These restaurants are all unique and have outdoor seats. Koreans like to drink and take photos in these charming outdoor seats. However, it is not recommended for foreigners to come here because there are not many restaurants and few seats. There is no need to wait for 1-2 hours on holidays. avoid. In addition, there are not many tourists here, so we need to provide a Korean phone number in order to stay on standby. We went to several restaurants this time and they told us that we cannot stay on standby without a phone number🤣 Of course, some will be more friendly and let us leave an Instagram 📍해방촌 신흥시장 In addition, because this is a residential area, there are actually no shopping spots nearby, only a few restaurants and cafes~ If you want to take pictures, Nanshan Tower is highly recommended📸But if you want to eat here, it may be a bit difficult~ #globaltravel #seoul #seoulattractions #seoultravel

#SeoulTravel I visited Haebangchon during my trip to Seoul, and it was such an amazing and special experience! 🎨✨ Haebangchon is a place where you can feel a unique atmosphere and art that you can't feel in Itaewon-dong and Gyeongridan-gil. Namsan Tower, which can be seen in every alley, is art! As the commercial district of Haebangchon grew, many merchants gathered and created a lively atmosphere. 🛍️ As a result of Yongsan-gu's mural cultural project in 2012, Haebangchon was transformed into an art village with beautiful murals. In particular, the commercial district of Haebangchon Ogeori expanded even more as rooftop restaurants, cafes, and bars became popular. 🍽️🍹 You can enjoy a meal while taking in the beautiful scenery of the city from the rooftop, and Haebangchon Ogeori in particular gave me a great experience because it has a great view of downtown Seoul. And cafes and shops with unique atmospheres that were hard to find in Itaewon-dong gathered in Haebangchon, transforming it into an artistic neighborhood full of unique culture. 📚🎨 Haebangchon is a really special place. The combination of art and culture makes it an even more wonderful experience. I want to visit again next time! 🌆👌 #HaebangchonTrip #ArtAndCulture #SeoulTrip

#SeoulTravel Hello, this is Mingla :) I really like Haebangchon, a hot place these days!

#SeoulTravel Haebangchon with its sunset was really beautiful. 🌄 As the sun slowly set with the scent of the village, the sky turned golden and orange, inviting us into a fantastic world. 🌆 The peace and beauty I felt here was really great! 😍 The Namsan Tower in the background was really cool! This moment, which is difficult to express in photos and videos, must be captured with my own eyes. 📸 Experiencing the sunset in Haebangchon was a meaningful memory for me. 🧡 I want to come to Haebangchon with its sunset again next time! 🌅 📍Yongsan-dong 2-ga, Yongsan-gu, Seoul

#SeoulTower Let me introduce you to Haebangchon Wine Bar! Chakyung is a wine bar with a large window that offers a view of the city of Seoul, and a direct view of Namsan Tower through the right window🍷 I recommend making a reservation for a table in advance, and since the atmosphere is beautiful both during the day and at night, I recommend entering at 4 or 4:30 and staying until the sunset🙌 Above all, the raw beef and spicy pollack roe buckwheat pasta are really, really delicious, so you should definitely try them!!

📍PBNJ: PBNJ, 1st floor, 22 Sowol-ro 20-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul (A Western restaurant located 3 minutes away from the bus stop ‘Boseong Girls’ Middle and High School’) I found a pretty Western restaurant with a nice atmosphere in Haebangchon, which is a good place to visit these days when the sunset is pretty! Since there are only about 4 tables, reservations are required. Although it is small in size, it is quiet and cozy, so it was good for creating a hideout feeling. My friend and I ordered the Johnsonville Cream Pasta (14,000) and Chili Barley (15,000). The visuals were really amazing, so I had high expectations, but the taste was good, but I personally felt a little disappointed because the seasoning was strong. However, the quantity and overall balance were good, so it was delicious! I want to visit again next time:) #SeoulTravel #HaebangchonTravel #Western #PBNJ #PastaRestaurant

The international district of Seoul (Itaewon, Haebangchon, Noksapyeong) typically offers a wide variety of international restaurants within the area. Morocco cafe offers very nice and authentic Moroccan dishes such as Tajine, kebabs, mint tea etc for diners. This cafe is also a very good hang out place as it offers a veranda, which allows diners to dine outdoor while enjoying the atmosphere of the surroundings. This restaurant is opened for lunch till dinner at 10pm. For those longing for a light snack, there is also a bread shop across the road called Casablanca cafe, specialized in selling moroccan bread. #moroccan#seoul#haebangchon

#Hotspot As I walked along the alley in Huam-dong, I stumbled upon a trendy new café by chance. It's so close to Sookmyung Women's University Station that you can even walk there. This place has a strong sense of aesthetic, making it perfect for a romantic date or a peaceful retreat with your furry friend. What impressed me the most was how beautifully the café was photographed. Of course, the weather also played a part, but the ambiance itself is nothing short of remarkable. 🏷 Ovio • Open daily from 11:00 am to 9:00 pm #Huam-dongCafe #HaebangchonCafe #Ovio

📍 95 Sinheung-ro, Yongsan-gu, Seoul Pickle Pickle, a cafe located in Haebangchon, Yongsan, Seoul! The size of each floor of the store is not very large, but it is a cafe with multiple floors, so you don't have to worry about seating at all. Each floor has its own charm, but the rooftop boasts the best view, and the view of downtown Seoul from a high place is really great. The journey to find a cafe in Haebangchon is a bit tough, but the coffee is rich and delicious, and the dessert, croffle, is also delicious, so I recommend enjoying it with a great view➿🫶 #Cafe with a good view #Seoul #Yongsan #Haebangchon #Hot place #Cafe recommendation

A prettier road when you walk together, #Haebangchon With the liberation in 1945, people who returned from overseas, people who came to South Korea from the North, and people who fled due to the Korean War settled here, and it came to be called Haebangchon. The places inside have now changed into modern things (bars/cafes), but the overall appearance of the neighborhood still retains its old appearance, so it was a good place to walk comfortably while feeling the emotions of that time. 🕊 Take bus number 402 or 405 and get off at Huam Medicinal Water (03170) 🕊 Otherwise, you can enjoy hiking #HotPlace #Seoul #SeoulTravel #PlacesToVisitInSeoul #SeoulSuburbs #SeoulDate #Itaewon #ItaewonTravel #Travel #TravelDestinationRecommendation

I made a reservation in advance for the lunch course and visited. I felt it was a shame to eat it because each dish was kindly and in detail explained and it was a pretty work of art made with delicate hands. #springtrip #springout #restaurant #seoulrestaurant #haebangchonrestaurant #souldining

📍97-5 Sinheung-ro, Yongsan-gu, Seoul, 2nd floor of Naeje This is a cafe with an exotic and Korean feel. As the name ‘Typewriter’ cafe suggests, there are typewriters and typewriter-shaped props on the counter. The typewriter on the counter has nice writings written on it, as shown in the photo, which makes you feel happy from the moment you order. Basically, one drink per person is the rule, and outside food is not allowed! I ordered a chocolate typewriter, and the coffee was really strong and the chocolate tasted good. The drink came out in a cup with my favorite picture on it, so it felt even more special :) Next time I go, I want to try the black sesame rice cake, which is made like a waffle! ‘Typewriter notebooks’ are placed all over the table. You can write a story on the first page of the notebook according to the theme written by the owner. It felt like a guestbook with an added layer of emotion. I didn’t write anything, but it was so nice to be able to read people’s stories! There were so many warm words. You can also choose other typewriter notebooks at the counter. I highly recommend reading them when you visit! It was also nice to sit and look at the sky through the large window. I visited during the day, but this place is actually known as a sunset restaurant! I recommend it if you want to see the sunset while visiting Haebangchon. #CafeRecommendation #SeoulTravel #Cafe #DateCourse #SunsetRestaurant #CafeWithAGoodView
