I often get asked what to see in Korea, where to go, what to eat, and so on. Many prefer non-touristy or unusual places. If you search for "top places to visit in Seoul" on Google or other search engines, you'll get royal palaces, shopping streets, museums, and so on. These are the most popular and touristy spots. But I want to share another spot. I want to tell you about a bookstore and give you 9 reasons why you should visit it :) When you mention a bookstore to people, many think, "That's boring, it's just a place to buy books." In reality, bookstores in Korea are more than just places with books. There are many bookstores. The most popular bookstore chain in Korea is Kyobo. They are in almost every district and they are usually quite large. But I want to tell you about another bookstore - Arc N Book. It's in the heart of modern Seoul, in Lotteworld Mall. The store is much smaller than Kyobo stores, but that doesn't make it any less
We're having a hot, rainy summer here in Korea, and due to the high humidity, it's very difficult to be outdoors where there is no any air conditioner. So today, I'd like to tell you a bit about summer in Korea. In this weather, Koreans eat hot, spicy food. It's believed that this helps endure the unbearable summer weather more easily. Perhaps they're onto something. After all, once you finish a hot soup, you'll sweat out all the water in your body and then you forget about the unbearable weather. Speaking of food, here's an interesting fact: Koreans can eat boiling soup without any problems! I don't know how they manage not to burn their mouths and everything else. But it's a fact. Unfortunately or fortunately, I don't have that skill. I tried to find some photos of boiling soup in my gallery but since I can't eat the soup when it is boiling I don't have such pics haha Source: Korean food And I wasn't kidding about
