Daehakro Hyehwa Station area is called Daehakro, which is a center of cultural life in Seoul with its many small theaters and interesting restaurants. It is only six subway station away from Suyu (our station) My opinion, this place is better than Hongdae, which is about 30-minutes away (by subway or bus) from the Studio. According to Hi Seoul Website, "Daehak-ro has some 100 theatres of all sizes staging various performances throughout the year, and it is oftentimes referred to as the Broadway of Asia. The outdoor theatre in Marronnier Park and Pungnyu Square are full of the passion of youth expressed in street performances and the drawing of portraits. This dynamic neighborhood is the very origin of the Korean Wave culture." http://english.seoul.go.kr/cav/att/Daehakro.php Here is the Youtube video about Daehak-ro http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HX2_XyUG_5g&noredirect=1 Dongdaemun Dongdaemun is very close with only four-five subway stations away, (either Dongdemun Station or Dongdaemun History and Culture Park station). This is the market place open until 5 am in the morning mostly selling clothing, but accessories and other essentials in your life. | ![]() ![]() ![]() |
