We bought our souvenirs at here, but from what I studied about, Nam Dae Mun is the place where you can get souvenirs at a cheaper price as compared to the shops in Insadong. Too bad, we didn’t visit Nam Dae Mun, what a waste~ But, missing some tourist spots motivated me to save money and visit the country again.
How to Get There?
Go to Anguk Station (Subway Line 3), Exit 6.
Go 100m straight, then turn left, and you will see this big brush in front of you.
The moment you see the big brush, just take out your smartphone and check in yourself at Insadong.

Street views of Insadong
Main street view
Some small valley along the main street.
A random shop in Insadong, the signboard gave me a vintage/old time feel.
There are a lots of random, eyes capturing creative things on the street which makes us amazed.

Samziegil
Ssamziegil, located in the middle street of Insadong, is a design gallery
that exhibits and sells the art of nationally recognized artists.
It is a 4 storey building, that was designed by connecting its charming alleys
in the form of a spiral-like stairway.

The Ssamziegil building.
I would say, Koreans are artistic. If I simply conteng on the wall, police will catch me for doing vandalism.
But, in Seoul, bringing marker pens out and leave their words/drawings on the wall is their culture.

This is how they plant a tree in a concrete building.
Scribble words and painting on the pillar.
Even at the staircase.

A closer view of the paintings.
More scribbled words.
A corner in the building.
If this is only a wall full with those graffiti, I will say messy and irritating.
But with the decorations around, OMG, it is so artistic hor~

And, we saw a pair of old couple and took a picture with them.
The old uncle is so cute in his Cheogori and Paji.
Elderly in Korea are so energetic and healthy that they can travel on their own.
