🇰🇷There is one more item in the current travel guide, which is to check in at the same attractions as celebrities. No matter which country the celebrity is from, whether it is an actor or a singer, the fans will always be attracted by these &quot;star effects&quot;; like the most popular Korean band BTS, I am also one of the fans. Before going to Seoul this time, I specially included this place in the list to fulfill my wish of checking in at the same place.
🏠Daegu Bookstore: Also translated as Daegu Bookstore/Dayu Bookstore, etc., this is the oldest second-hand bookstore in Korea near the West Village Hanok. It is not a tourist attraction. It is famous for being loved by many celebrities in the entertainment industry and appearing in various celebrity TV dramas, MVs, social networking sites, etc.; like us, we were attracted by the photos posted by BTS&#39;s captain Kim Namjoon. In addition, the Korean drama &quot;Shark&quot; and IU&#39;s album &quot;JACKET&quot; were also filmed here. It can be said that this is a popular place where many fans will come to check in.

🎬 Cafe: Second-hand books are no longer sold here, but it has been transformed into a very quaint cafe, which still retains the style of the past; after all, it is not a tourist attraction so there is no ticket, but it still requires consumption. Simply order a cup of coffee or a drink and you can sit inside for the whole day; to be honest, the coffee is also very good, and the rich aroma will float into the room, and a cute little cookie is also thoughtfully served; in addition to coffee, you can also order a pot of tea or a cup of hot chocolate, read a book here, and slowly wait for the sunset.
💁The lady boss is very friendly. She probably has seen too many fans come here to check in. She doesn&#39;t feel impatient at all. Instead, she will first ask you which star you followed, and then give you pointers: Oh, IU took the photo against this wall; Rapmon came twice, and sat here the first and second time... Very considerate and will never tire of telling every fan what it was like to meet the stars at that time, etc., and whether they want to take a group photo with you; 🎼The background music is all IU or BTS songs. You will meet many like-minded fans from all over the world who come to Seoul here, so the atmosphere here is also very good.
📷After all, it is a very old house with a strong sense of age, so taking pictures is also unique. There are different compartments inside. It used to be the residence of the owner&#39;s family, but now it has become a place to drink coffee; each room still retains the old layout, decoration, clothes, books, piano, etc. In addition to following the stars to check in, this is also a place with a lot of history and stories, so it attracts them to come here to find inspiration.

‼ ️Tips:
1⃣Be sure to take off your shoes when entering the house. There are mats inside the house where you can sit and rest;
2⃣There are clear instructions at the door that you cannot take photos with a camera inside, so please abide by the rules and just take photos with your mobile phone;
3⃣The second-hand books and old items inside are very precious, so be sure to handle them with care;
4⃣There are quite a lot of customers taking photos at the same locations. If you don&rsquo;t want to waste too much time, it is recommended to come on weekdays.

📍Location: 7-55, 서울 종로구 자하문로.
🚇Transportation: If you take the subway, take Exit 2 of Gyeongbokgung Station; we happened to arrange a trip to Gyeongbokgung Palace that day, and walked slowly following the navigation.
🕛Business hours: Closed on Mondays, open at 12 noon on other days.
