#fallingseason Jamsil's Seokchon Lake is a beautiful sight any time of day, especially at night when the soft ripples of the water cross over the surface under the moonlight. It's a unique spot to visit with friends or while on a date, and you have the option to choose from a moon boat or a UFO boat. The rental fee may vary between each boat, but you're sure to enjoy your time out on the lake waters. Make this boat ride your next stop on your weekend outing.

#FlowerViewing This is Seokchon Lake located in Songpa-gu, Seoul. The entire park was in full bloom with cherry blossoms, so no matter where you looked, there were cherry blossoms, and there were a lot of people! It felt like a cherry blossom festival with people walking, running, and taking pictures, and Lotte World was right next door, so it looked like it would be nice to see the cherry blossoms and ride the rides! This year's cherry blossom season is over, but I recommend you go next year!

#Christmas #HotPlace #SeoulTravel #DateCourse #LifeShotPlace #JamsilDate A story about a guy who brought a camera but didn't bring a memory card and only took pictures with his phone🤗 I went to see Magic Castle at 8 PM, but there were so many people, and there were about 3 groups in the stair pillar photo zone! If you want to send the blue pillar behind the person, lean your body further to the lower left and take the picture - The more you zoom in, the more you can capture the Magic Castle, so I recommend zooming in 2-3 times! ✨ Please note that it's difficult to take pictures of the stair pillar when the lights start to turn on!! I was satisfied with just taking a selfie next to the stair pillar, so I'll try to make memories in various ways🫶 I think I should go early to take a picture without the tree branches under the stair pillar🥹 (I couldn't go 30 minutes before the light-up on a weekday evening because it was full..) ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ ❝ #LotteWorld ❞ ✨ [ How to take a picture of Magic Castle without going into Lotte World ] 📍 Seokchon Lake (Seoho) Lotte World Cloud Bridge, lower left 1️⃣6️⃣7️⃣ Photo zone before going down the stairs 2️⃣3️⃣4️⃣ Photo zone on the stair pillar 5️⃣ Photo zone to take a picture of the entire Magic Castle after going down the stairs 🌟 Light-up 20:40 (for 5 minutes) 🏰 Christmas lights 18:00 - 21:00 (Snow falls frequently for 30 seconds) 🗓️ ~ Until 2022.12.31 〰️It's cold, so make sure to bring a hot pack and dress warmly💛 ㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡㅡ####

Kart Rider, a new ride at Lotte World! I was happy to ride this game because it was something I often played when I was young. I recommend it to children and adults who want to go on a trip down memory lane😊 There are many photo zones here and there, so it was great! It's a ride where you can drive yourself like a bumper car, but the speed isn't that fast. You just drive along a set course and return to where you started. The ride time is about 3 minutes! This ride is operated by advance reservation, so I recommend making a reservation in advance before going to ride other rides👍 #AmusementPark #LotteWorld #LotteWorldRides #JamsilLotteWorld

# Hotspot After 8 years, the lovely rubber duck🐥💛 has returned! The hottest spot in Seoul right now is Seokchon Lake in Jamsil. The adorable Rubber Duck Lee has appeared on the lake after an 8-year hiatus!!!! You must see it now because its overwhelming cuteness is truly mind-blowing. Plus, there's a stamp rally event in every corner of Lotte World Mall, so you can also find hidden Rubber Ducks and receive gifts 🧡. Who's going to see the Rubber Duck this weekend?🙋🏻‍♀️ 📍Seokchon Lake in Jamsil ◽️ Viewing available until October 31st.

📍 Yongshin Art, 68 Samjeon-ro 10-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul I'd like to introduce you to Hyeongje Jjamppong, a Chinese restaurant in Songpa-gu that is famous for its delicious Jjamppong. It is located behind Seokchon Lake, so it is easily accessible from Jamsil or Songridan-gil! It uses spinach noodles, so it feels a little healthier, and the interior of the restaurant is small, with only 5-6 tables, so it is always full during meal times. The dumplings served as a service were hot and delicious, and the Jjajang, Jjamppong, and Kkanpunggi were all delicious. It is already famous among the locals, so there are many people who come to eat in comfortable attire! It is a restaurant where you have to wait during peak times. The owners are really kind, and the atmosphere of the restaurant is very cozy, so I think I will visit often in the future~ If you are near Songridan-gil or Seokchon Lake, be sure to visit! #JamsilRestaurant #RestaurantRecommendation #ChineseRestaurant

You should always go see the cherry blossoms at Seokchon Lake in spring!💕 It looks like such a beautiful place! But there are so many people.. There are a lot of people even if you go on a weekday, and there are a lot of people even if you go early in the morning… But if you have a chance, be sure to visit #HotPlace

From octopus sashimi to octopus pancake! I recommend a restaurant where you can taste various seafood~ Hannamdaegyo Bridge🐙 18-11 Olympic-ro 32-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul This place has a great atmosphere because it feels like an Euljiro no-po! On top of that, it feels like it's filled with fresh ingredients, so you can't go wrong! #PleaseWinter #YearEndTravel #Restaurant #Winter #SeoulTravel #JamsilTravel #RestaurantTour #SeoulRestaurant #PleaseWinter #HotPlace

Lotte World is always mentioned by many people looking for a Christmas photo zone! Lotte World Castle can be seen from Seokchon Lake, so I also visited there. The purpose of my visit was to see the light-up show at Lotte World Castle, but Lotte World Castle itself, which was dark and filled with a Christmas atmosphere, was so pretty! Also, there are so many people during the show that it’s hard to take pictures, so if you want to take pictures first, I recommend visiting when it’s not crowded! The light-up show at Lotte World starts at 8:30 and lasts for about 5 minutes! If you don’t want to miss a good spot, I recommend going 30 minutes early and waiting! #JamsilTravel #ChristmasAtmosphere #HotPlace #PleaseWinter

I visited Nop's Steak House, which was perfect in terms of atmosphere, taste, and price! If you go during the day, you can see the Seokchon Lake view, and if you go at night, you can see the beautiful night viewㅠㅠ The steak is good quality, soft, and delicious, so I highly recommend it! The interior is spacious and there are a lot of seats, so it would be great for year-end gatherings and family gatherings👍 #GourmetExploration #SeoulTravel #JamsilGourmet #Steak

It's March again, and the cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Tired of going to Japan? Why not visit South Korea next door to capture the beauty of cherry blossoms? 📍 Getting there: Take the subway to each attraction. 🌟 Highlights: ✅ Gyeongbokgung Palace: The largest royal palace in South Korea and the main palace of the last dynasty on the Korean Peninsula. The cherry blossom trees under the red bricks and green tiles present a unique beauty, making it easy for even amateur photographers to take stunning photos. ✅ N Seoul Tower: The N Seoul Tower, often featured in Korean dramas, is a fantastic photo spot! The romantic atmosphere of the N Seoul Tower against the backdrop of cherry blossoms makes it a perfect date spot this spring. ✅ Seoul Forest: Seoul Forest is a multi-functional leisure and entertainment center integrating culture, art, experiential learning, ecology, and wetlands. With cherry blossom petals scattered around, every corner seems to be tinged with pink. ✅ Seokchon Lake: A natural lake adjacent to Lotte World, Seokchon Lake is crowded with visitors during the cherry blossom season. You can take photos of the amusement park castle and cherry blossoms from a distance. ✅ Kyung Hee University Seoul Campus: If you want to take stunning cherry blossom photos, you must visit this campus. With classical teaching buildings as the background, the large swaths of cherry blossoms are particularly brilliant. It is said that many celebrities study here! ✨ Tips: ✅ In addition to Gyeongbokgung Palace, Namsan Hanok Village is also a great place for taking photos. It is recommended that ladies rent Hanboks in advance. Cherry blossoms, ancient walls, Hanboks, and Korean style create a perfect backdrop for stunning photos that will light up your social media. ✅ If you don't want to go to the crowded N Seoul Tower, you can start your stroll from the Namsan Library. The entire walking path is lined with cherry blossoms. This is the area where cherry blossoms bloom the latest in Seoul, so if you arrive too late, you might miss them. ✅ Seoul Forest is just a few steps away from the famous entertainment company SM Entertainment, so you can stop by and try to spot your favorite K-pop idols. Seongsu-dong, known as the Brooklyn of Korea, is also nearby. ✅ Seokchon Lake holds a cherry blossom festival every year, featuring large-scale performances, traditional cultural performances, and concerts. This is a great opportunity to learn more about Korean culture. ✅ Another hidden gem for cherry blossom viewing is the Hwarangdae Subway Park. The park retains abandoned railways and small trains, which, adorned with cherry blossoms, create a romantic scene straight out of a Korean drama.

#OutdoorDate Even in the cold weather, ducks were leisurely floating around Seokchon Lake. It looked so peaceful to see them leisurely swimming in the unfrozen water. Maybe because it was winter, there weren't many tourists, so it was nice to take a quiet walk. Even in the cold air, the sunlight shining on the lake and the movement of the ducks added to the winter charm. It was a great place to enjoy the quiet atmosphere of the winter lake while walking slowly with a cup of warm coffee. 😊

One of the highlights of Seokchon Lake is its stunning views of Lotte Tower, the fifth tallest building in the world. As you stroll around the lake, you can catch glimpses of this impressive skyscraper towering above, reflecting in the calm waters of the lake. The contrast between the natural beauty of the lake and the modern architecture of Lotte Tower makes for a striking sight, especially at sunset when the tower lights up against the evening sky.

#SeoulTravel Growers, which has been featured in girl groups, actors, and Heart Signal! There are branches in Yeonhui-dong, Dogok, and Seokchon Lake, so it's a great place to visit by region, but Songridan-gil Seokchon Lake is a place that definitely comes to mind as a date course! No matter where you sit, every seat is a photo zone, and on weekdays, the outdoor terrace seats are really a must, not an option. ㅎㅅㅎ You should definitely make a reservation for dinner so you won't regret it.. The interior has a European feel, and each and every food is delicious, so it's my second home, so I haven't been to Yeonhui-dong, so I'll go to Yeonhui-dong next time 😙 . . 📍Growers Jamsil Seokchon Lake Branch 274 Seokchon Lake-ro, Songpa-gu, Seoul, 1st and 2nd floors #HotPlace #CafeRecommendation #Couples #RestaurantConquest

I visited Obebe Bakery, one of the top three bagel shops in Songpa, located near Jamsil Station. Thanks to the bright and flashy lights, it didn't feel like a bakery at first! It was only after seeing the bagels on the shelf next to the door that I realized it was a bagel specialty shop. As a bagel lover, I was overwhelmed and couldn't decide what to choose because everything looked so delicious. I ordered a blueberry bagel, a rice bagel, and an iced Americano. The blueberry bagel was impressive with jam spread on the outside. It was moderately sweet, not greasy, and chewy. The rice bagel was a plain bagel but had a nice, mild flavor. After finishing everything and drinking the iced Americano, it was a perfect finish! 📍Location: B2F-2F, 20 Songpadaero 46-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul 📍Parking: Songpa Women's Culture Center Parking Lot, 29 Songpadaero 42-gil, Songpa-gu, Seoul → 1,800 KRW for 60 minutes Yuseong Parking Lot, 30 Songpa-dong, Songpa-gu, Seoul → 1,000 KRW for 10 minutes 📍Operating Hours: Every day 08:00 ~ 20:00
