명동. 사람도 많고 음식점도 많고 건물도 많습니다. 개인적으로 ‘명동’ 하면 외국인 친구들이 여행 왔을 때 가이드를 했던 곳입니다. 심지어 돈도 없고 너무 힘이 들어서 무기력에 빠질 때마다 혼자 자주 찾곤 했던 곳입니다. 그래서 여기저기 기억이 많이 남아 있습니다. 크리스마스, 연말, 길거리음식 등 거리 위 추억도 정말 많이 있고요.
오늘은 서울 중구 한복판 위치한 명동 소개하고자 합니다. 앞서 신세계백화점 롯데백화점 본점 소개했습니다. 이번에는 일상의 명동, 크리스마스 연말 이슈는 겸사겸사한 일반인이 평소에 다녔던 명동 소개하겠습니다.
너무 힘들고 무기력해서 자주 찾던 동네
처음 명동 접한 건, 어릴적 드라마 야인시대 보면서 알게 되었습니다. 그리고 실제로 명동 찾게 된 것은 대학생 시절부터 였던 걸로 기억합니다.
당시 돈도 없고, 갖은 고생은 다 하면서 보내다가, 언젠가부터 탈수현상 겪듯 완전히 번아웃, 탈진 했었습니다.
막상 방바닥에 붙어서 아무것도 못 하게 될 때, 어디를 나가려니 돈이 들고, 조금이나마 쉽게 갈 수 있는 곳이 어딜까 싶어서 택한 곳이 일요일 명동 이었어요.
명동 하면 명동성당, 일요일 명동성당 미사 보고 서울시청 도서관 넘어가서 자기계발도 했었죠. 마음이 심란할 때는 시청 주변을 걷기도 했습니다.
그렇게 명동과의 인연이 시작되었습니다. 항공사 직장에 들어가서 쳇바퀴 같은 일상 보내던 시절에는, 종종 명동 나들이 겸 혼밥 하러 자주 왔었습니다.
외국인 친구들이 가보고 싶다 해서 자주 찾던 동네
중국인 친구, 조카랑 함께 놀러 와서 우연히 명동 여행 가이드
대학교 4학년 일 때부터 항공사 재직 당시, 학업적인 환경과 직업적 환경 덕분에 외국인 친구를 두루두루 만날 수 있었습니다.
한 번은, 중국 상해 출신 친구가 있었는데 조카랑 같이 놀러와서 명동 여행 가이드 했던 적이 있습니다. 가이드 라고 했지만 당시에는 길 안내, 가벼운 의사소통 수준이었습니다.
K-POP 대세 인기 따라 여기 저기 많이 보여주고, 가고 싶다고 미리 보고 온 장소를 같이 가주는 수준에서 많은 시간을 보냈습니다.
일본인 친구, 결혼식 들렸다가 가볍게 밥 먹으러 함께 명동 먹방
기억이 납니다. 오랜만에 연락 온 일본인 친구 지인의 결혼식이 한국에서 열렸어요. 지방 도시에서 있던 찰나 함께 결혼식 참석하고 서울 명동 근처로 올라왔어요.
저 포함 3명이 있었는데 마침 저녁을 못 먹었던 터라, 명동 어느 치킨집에서 치킨 먹고 헤어졌던 기억이 있습니다.
또한, 다른 날에는 ‘한국 여행’ 처음인 일본인 친구 역시, 명동 얘기를 해서 ‘진짜 명동이 유명한 동네구나’ 싶던 적이 몇 번 있습니다.
여러 날 여기저기 들린 명동 맛집, 친구들이 돌아간 후에도 별도로 몇 번 간 적이 있습니다.
서울 중구 명동 길거리, 그 거리 위에서
생각해보면 혼자서 명동 방문한 적도 꽤 있고, 자의 아닌 타의에 의해, 외국인 친구들에 의해 명동 여행 하게 된 적도 꽤 있습니다.
그만큼 명동, (꼭 크리스마스 연말 아니어도) 이 곳은 예나지금이나 잊혀지지 않는 도시 입니다.
모두가 힘들던 코로나, 나의 명동 추억도 잠시 쉬어가다
우리는 힘들었어요. 다들 기억하실 거예요. 온 도시가 멈추어버린 시기를 말이죠. 당시 사회적 거리두기 되도록 고립된 생활 지향 원칙의 라이프스타일이 모든 걸 바꿨습니다.
명동 거리 , 그 시기가 제가 명동에 대한 공백기를 가진 거의 유일하지 않나 싶습니다. 우연히 그 동네를 지날 일이 있어서 사진 남겼습니다.
네, 그 당시 명동거리 는 이렇게 한산했습니다. 지금으로서는, 얼마 지나지 않은 것 같은데 상상하기 힘들죠? 명동의 모든 거리가 거의 이랬는데, 이런 모습은 저도 처음 봤습니다.
명동거리 에서 여러 추억이 많은 저로서는 낯선 이질감 느껴지는 거리의 모습, 그동안 나의 추억도 역사 속으로 사라지는 기분이 들었습니다.
다시 회복한 명동 길거리, 순환버스 타고 반가운 얼굴로 마주하다
코로나 시기로 모두가 멈춘 그 날들이 지나고, 올해 여름 초저녁 쯤 서울 노랑풍선 시티투어 버스 타고, 활력 있는 명동거리 를 다시 보게 되었습니다.
명동을 자주 가보신 분들은 여기가 어디인지 한 눈에 알아 보시지 않았나요? 네, 롯데백화점 본점 맞은편, 명동 거리 초입 입니다.
빠르게 달리는 노랑풍선 시티투어 버스 타고 스쳐지나가듯이 본 장면이라, 이 때는 자세히 찍지는 못 했지만, 그럼에도 코로나 시기랑 많이 다른 모습인 건 알 수 있었습니다.
시간이 흐르고 어느새 연말, 사람 많고 감성 있는 명동 크리스마스
노랑풍선 시티투어 버스 탔던 날 이후, 명동에 갈 일이 몇 번 더 있었고 (거의 사진을 남기지 못 했습니다), 거의 자유 여행객 모드로 명동여행 나선 건 올해 12월 이었습니다.
옛날 생각도 많이 나고, 외국인 친구와 함께 했던 명동에 대한 기억이 되살아나고, 이제는 ‘술’ 마시면 해장이 반드시 필요한 30대 초중반 나이 아저씨가 되어버렸지만. 여전히 명동은 명동 이었습니다.
그래서 명동거리, 크리스마스 연말 분위기 사진으로 몇 장을 담아봤습니다. 서울 여행 오시는 분이라면 참고 해도 좋을 것 같습니다.
명동의 길거리음식 빼놓을 수 없죠? 거리, 골목 등 여러 곳에 ‘명동먹거리’ 있습니다.

★Most foods are not snacks enjoyed in Korea.
(Excluding some items such as kimbap, tteokbokki, japchae, egg bread, etc.)
★Some are Korean. But I don't think Koreans sell it.
★World snack stores are very expensive. I was surprised. It's convenient, but be sure to compare it to convenience stores.
Most Koreans don't buy or eat on this street.
It's worth considering if you're really hungry, but it's expensive.

I recommend making this one of your FIRST stops, as you’ll find the English speaking person easing you into the transition of learning about traveling in Korea.

명동관광정보센터 추천하는 이유는 이렇습니다. 어디든 마찬가지지만 여행은 주관적인 요소가 있습니다.
그래서 공식적으로 인정하는 여행 명소 정보는 공신력 있는 기관에서 도움을 청하는 것도 방법이에요.
명동을 자주 가보신 분들조차 모르시는 곳일 거라 생각합니다. 사실 명동에는 ‘명동관광정보센터’ 기관이 마련되어 있습니다.
인스타그램 : @ticmyeongdong
‘명동관광정보센터’ 운영시간은 매일 09:00 ~ 18:00 (오전 9시 ~ 오후 6시) 입니다.
문의전화 : 02-778-0333
명동이 처음이라면 바로 여기, 명동관광안내소
명동관광정보센터 찾는 분들은 사전에 명동여행 준비를 하시는 분이 많으실 거예요. 그런데 만약, ‘나는 이미 명동에 와버렸다’ 하면 어떻게 할까요?
걱정하지 마세요. 명동관광안내소 역시 있습니다. 제가 여기를 추천하는 이유는, 사실 명동을 처음 와보시는 입장에서 명동길거리 지리에 대해 모를 수밖에 없어요.
그리고 명동의 거리는 꽤나 복잡합니다. 물론 지도앱으로 스스로 보고 찾아가도 상관없지만, ‘사람’에게 직접적으로 도움 받으면 더 좋겠죠? 명동관광안내소 방문해야 하는 이유입니다.

명동여행, 명동 개방화장실 화장실 가고 싶을 때는 어떻게?
길거리 돌아다니다가 갑자기 화장실 가고 싶을 때가 있을 수 있잖아요? 거의 모든 여행이 그렇죠. 화장실 한번 가고 싶은데 또 비싼 돈 주고 어디 가기는 좀 그렇고 말이죠.
그럴 때는 개방화장실 이용하는 방법도 있습니다. 저는 되도록 명동성당 있는 개방화장실, 또는 지하철 화장실 이용을 권하지만 그래도 혹시 모르니 개방화장실 정보 정리하였습니다.
서울중앙우체국 1층 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 소공로 70 (평일 주말 구분없이 24시간)
명동역 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 퇴계로 126 명동역 4호선 (정시 05:00 ~ 01:00)
명동파출소 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 명동길 30 명동 파출소 (평일 주말 구분없이 24시간)
YWCA 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 명동1가 1-5 (정시)
한전 서울지역본부 1층 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 남대문로 92 (평일 09:00 ~ 18:00)
을지로입구역 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 남대문로1가 89 (정시 영업시작~종료)
1898플러스 개방화장실 : 서울 중구 명동길 80 (명동성당 아래)
명동 물품보관 서비스 이용 가능한 곳, 물품보관함
아무래도 여행하다 보면 무시하지 못 하는 게, 내 손에 들린 가방이나 물건입니다. 아무리 가벼워도 계속 들고 다녀보면 무게감이 많이 느껴지는 게 사실이죠?
그래서 의외로 명동 물품보관, 물품보관함 찾는 분들이 계실 것 같아요. 아쉽게도 명동을 둘러싼 명동역, 그리고 을지로입구역 지하철에는 물품보관함이 없습니다.
제가 어떻게 도움을 드릴 수 있을까 생각하다가, 광고 아니지만, 좀 찾아보니까 물품보관 서비스 관련 앱 추천하려고 합니다.
‘럭스테이 (LugStay)’ 앱이 있습니다. 안드로이드, 앱스토어 모두 다운로드 및 설치 가능합니다. 해당 앱으로 물품보관 서비스 가능한 곳을 쉽게 찾을 수 있습니다. 이 앱을 참고 부탁드립니다.
명동 거리 가볼만한곳 간략 정리 , 아이와 함께 갈만한 곳 모음 – 크리스마스 연말 준비 참고
명동은 관광지의 모습만 있는 것은 아닙니다. 아이와 함께 갈 수 있을 정도로 좋은 가볼만한곳 정보를 간략히 정리하였습니다.
너무나도 갈 곳이 많지만 축약하고, 줄여 또 줄여서 몇 곳만 적어봤습니다.

Shinsegae Department Store main branch media facade
It is a compound term of media and facade, which refers to the exterior wall of a building, and refers to the projection of various content images on the exterior wall of a building.
This goes further than the method of producing images by attaching displays such as LEDs to the walls of buildings and uses the walls of the buildings for displays. (Doosan Encyclopedia)

Compared to other department stores, the space between stores is wider, which gives a sense of comfort when shopping, but it also gives a feeling of emptiness(?), and the structure of the store makes it somewhat frustrating(?), but it is a shopping mall with its own unique personality~

Lots of high end stores in one place which is great. Purchased from Hermes and Chanel at this location. Hermes had a decent selection of shoes and Chanel had the new 24C Chanel 22 mini in stock which I was so happy about! Great place to do some shopping for VAT refund. Note anything over $5k must get receipt on the second floor then get inspected at the airport for the refund. Felt some of the store staff was a bit snooty so can’t give 5 stars.

Also, there are also beautiful Christmas lights and a beautiful Christmas presentation on the LCD screen outside the mall.

The chance encounter with these celebrated artists transformed a regular shopping trip into a memorable and cherished moment. Such unique and special experiences contribute significantly to the overall richness of the shopping experience.
In summary, Lotte Department Store Main Branch in Myeongdong offers a diverse shopping experience, and meeting ITZY, a highly acclaimed K-pop group, added an extra layer of excitement and fulfillment.

If you're looking for luxury shopping, Lotte Myeongdong is probably the best use of your time and effort. It's connected to the train station underground, and you have a lot of hustle and bustle happening all at once.
Their food court, food avenue, at the basement, is super comprehensive and affordable. We got ourselves a kul-guksu noodle set for 8k KRW, and we couldn't finish it. Very fresh produce, like what you'll find at a Japanese Takashimaya.
Many big brands are also here, so once you're done eating, you can access all the many brands all at once. All, without needing to leave the mall.

Monet. It's a different painting style from Van Gogh, so it definitely has a different feel. People often say it feels like tarot cards. It is certain that you can see a variety of beautiful pictures with Alforce Mucha's unique drawing style.

This is a place that plays videos about Monet. 30,000 won was spent for two people, and the video and photo time ended in just under an hour. The video itself is beautiful and magnificent, but the cost-effectiveness is the worst.
If you have a lot of money, a lot of time, and want to have a unique experience, I recommend going.

The building is beautiful, no doubt. The interior ceiling and chandeliers are also nice. The museum is free, and you can walk right in. No food or drinks are allowed, and there are no waste bins for you to get rid of your trash before you enter. If you're like most people, you like money, however this museum is probably not for you. But if you like money, in the sense that you like the theory behind it, the etymology of the word, the economics of currency in international trade, then you might find it interesting.
Much of what you'll learn here, you can find on Wikipedia. However, how often will you visit a Wikipedia page on that subject? Perusing the exhibits is far more enjoyable and provides a different context for learning and retaining that knowledge.

Though I only experienced the exterior of the Bank of Korea Money Museum during my visit in February, the museum's historical significance and purpose resonated strongly. The architectural elegance of the building hinted at the wealth of knowledge it holds within its walls. Learning about its history and significance added depth to my understanding of South Korea's economic evolution. While unable to explore the museum's interior, the mere presence of this institution symbolized the country's financial heritage. For enthusiasts of economics or history, a deeper exploration inside would likely offer a fascinating insight into the nation's monetary history and its role on the global stage
Nice place to visit but
Gift shop still in progress to open.
Next time I will come again, hopefully can buy sourvineor for myself.

This place opened in 200. This year 2023, the Museum commemorates the 50th anniversary of the Bank of Korea. There are plenty of rooms with well-presented interactive games which makes this museum a place where you can take your children, they will not be bored. it's free entrance. Have a cafe shop at the first floor.

Nanta Show is really a must-see drama when visiting Seoul. It is full of color, fragrance, and you can enjoy it with audiences from all over the world without knowing Korean. The actors on the stage perform very entertainingly and interact with the audience from time to time. It is recommended to buy tickets in advance, there are three shows a day. About 90 minutes.

A landmark on Myeongdong Street.
At night, there are many food stalls and it's lively.

Huge market. Hairtail food alley is something unique. Most are selling fishes. Minumum cost was 10,000 won. Grilled mackerel was actually fried mackerel. Dried anchovy is a must item to buy. It was not salty at all and very fresh.
Highly recommended to go inside the building at level 2 for brooch and jewelleries.

Noodle alley is tasty and cheap. Space is tight but the restaurants are very welcoming. For dessert, stop at one of the street side donut shops for a fresh, warm donut twist lightly coated with sugar. Guard your purse or wallet with exceptional care, as this is an extremely crowded area frequented by tourists.
When shopping, prices for commodity items are almost always negotiable. To illustrate, the chopsticks shown had a starting price of 10,000 won (about $9) per package. The final price was 11,000 won for two packages...probably still overpaid. You may get a gruff "NO DISCOUNT" in response, but simply move on to the next stall which is likely selling the exact same item. (Actual results may vary, blah, blah, blah.)

This place is cool. The vendors are nice. Not pushy and very helpful. I found all items priced but I was given a discount so I’m sure you could haggle. There is so much to see inside and out. The aisles are tight inside but there things to buy on all four levels. I bought a baseball hat and some jewelry.

-Definitely worth a visit if you are here. There are two main streets that sells food and other stuffs like clothing shoes etc and even ginseng shops.
-If you are nearby and don't know where the main street is look out for a tourist guide wearing red color that is able to guide you in many different languages.
👎:
-There are not alot of places that has seating so you most likely need to stand and eat. Some coffee shops have outdoor seating but you need to purchase a drink before you can sit outside their shop.

It's a massage chair cafe. I used the 160-minute sleep course for 24,000 won. Coffee and drinks are included in the sleep course.
The massage was just so-so.
I don't know if the person guiding me was part-timer or the boss, but it wasn't that he wasn't friendly, but it seemed like he was forcing himself to hold back his frustration. However, he smiled and was really kind to the foreign guests.
I think it’s a place Koreans shouldn’t go to.

When I took an early morning flight, my body felt more tired than I expected.
Since I was not feeling well to begin with, I was unable to wait until my next appointment.
I was looking for a place where I could take a nap,
I arrived here.
There are many massage parlors in Myeong-dong, but the quality is low (I had a massage experience in Myeong-dong before), and I don't want to spend money and have a bad experience when I'm tired, including the staff's treatment. I decided to have a massage in a massage chair.
I think it was 50 minutes and 17,000w with one drink.
The result was a hit! ! !
It's a massage chair, so there are limits, but the quality is constant, for better or worse. It was cheap and refreshing, which was great!
Also, I thought this was a better value for money as there are massage chairs that massage a wide range of areas including hands, feet, head, back, shoulders and hips.
The fruit juice I chose after the massage also contained fruit pulp, which was surprisingly authentic and good!
I want to go again when I'm tired.

Lantern Festival ~ Christmas Eve 23
Because it had snowed, the floor was a bit slippery.
I think that Korea has once again joined the ranks of advanced countries as Seoul city officials come out and speak safely and citizens also watch the light festival in an orderly manner.
The sky was clear, and the moon in the night sky was shining brightly. I had a nice walk with my family. The night street in Gwanggyo was really pretty, and I had a great conversation with the kids at a historic place.

This is a beautiful stream running through downtown Seoul. There was a festival on in Seoul while we were there. The theme appeared to be around books and reading. Cushions placed every metre along the stream (2 together) with a basket with books and a lantern in between. Relaxing music was played by a DJ and the mood was setting for a very relaxing afternoon. Love it!

It is not only the official bishop's residence but also the oldest Western-style brick building in Korea. Located in Myeongdong, the most commercial street in Seoul, amidst masses of tourists enjoying shopping for cosmetics and street food, Catholic pilgrims from around the world visit this historical building, which has witnessed over 200 years of modern Korean history. The cathedral has its own history museum, which is free to visit and highly recommended.

The most incredible ramen at a low price. Very simple menu, not over complicated with unnecessary choices. It is a hole in the wall place with adorable sticky notes all over the wall and ceiling left by customers. Mostly locals in here, and the owners are very sweet. The restaurant is named after the alley where this kind of ramen came from. Overall, a worthy choice. Affordable, yet complex in flavour profile and an enjoyable meal.

First time I went, I went around 8:30pm and it was closed. They close kinda early. The taste of the tteokbokki itself was unique, more garlicky than just spicy. There were real garlic bits. However, I was looking for the odeng, but there was none so that was a bit disappointing. I went upon Doobydobap's recommendation so I had high expectations. It was okay, not bad.

I can definitely say that the seasoning level of the tteokbokki here is different from other tteokbokki. The tteokbokki here is basically garlic tteokbokki, and the aroma and taste of garlic are well incorporated into the seasoning, so it is bound to be delicious to Koreans. When you take a bite of a well-seasoned rice cake, the first thing that comes to mind is the seasoning from famous stir-fried octopus restaurants (such as Lee Kang-sun's Silbi House or Seorin Octopus). The texture of the red pepper powder is still present in the sharply spicy seasoning, so it feels dry, but it feels like eating less spicy stir-fried octopus seasoning. It seems spicy, but it tastes sweet at the same time, making it highly addictive. The side menu here, gimbap, fried food, and dumplings, are ordinary, but must be ordered. Because you will feel strongly that you don’t want to leave any tteokbokki seasoning behind. A place you must visit before you die! (Next to Hadonggwan in Myeongdong)

Tteokbokki was pretty good! It's garlicky and different than your typical tteokbokki so it's worth a try. You need to order at least 2 servings if you want to pay with a credit card

I often eat tteokbokki as takeout, but it has a strong garlic taste.
It's rice cake and the sauce is very rich.
It's so delicious that I keep craving it.
I think there are about 10-12 rice cakes per serving.
The amount is neither too much nor too little

As a self-professed tteokbokki shop curator, this is probably the best tteokbokki I’ve ever eaten. It is much better than the night market carts by a long shot, and you’ll be lucky if they haven’t sold out by the late afternoon. Definitely get the holy trifecta of tteokbokki, oden & gimbap - you won’t regret it! The oden broth is spicy and savoury, much better than any others I’ve tasted in Seoul.

10.5.23 - needed a quick bite for the fam. Short like that moved fast. The ajummas were nice, fast, and, always smiling.
We got the bacon sandwich and the ham special for a total of 7400 KRW. The bread wasn't as toasted enough to have a slight crunch. The eggs are made to order. Overall it leaned toward the sweet side, but we prefer more savory.
Good for a try, but only going back if no other option.

tried this on September 23rd during a weekend morning. It’s crowded during the weekend. Early in the morning, the queue starts. tried the bulgogi special, and it is tasty. The sauce is delicious, making the toast flavorful. This is the only takeout kiosk on Myeongdong street. It’s better to try it on a weekday when there’s less crowd.
Service wise, below expectation to be honest.

Very nice place, if you get there before 10:30 A.M they have special morning dish. Its 2 pancakes with muffin, egg, butter, sausage burger, potato snack and soft drink. Very testy and its only 6,200 won. I really like it 🙏🏻😊
I will mention that until 10:30 A.M they don't have normal burger with beef or chicken.

I have visited many McDonald's stores in the world, I have not seen such a service, I ordered a Big Mac in the first place, and I felt that I was still hungry, so I ordered a chicken burger, and I was shocked that the chicken was so old that I felt a tickle in my mouth.
And when I asked a lady inside the kitchen that the chicken was too grilled and I couldn't chew it, and in addition to that it was old. Not only that she was rude because I am a foreigner, but she was even more rude to a Pakistani girl who I think is a Muslim when I asked her for a chicken sandwich without bacon. after i asked her three times that the chicken is too roasted, on the one hand, and old on the other, but she replied that it was chicken.
I informed the manager, and he told me that he would change the burger for me, and I waited about fifteen minutes only to change the burger, the taste of everything had changed and I didn't want to eat. I took pictures of it.

Good place, good location within Myeongdong night market. Was my first experience having spicy chicken burger which is so Korean taste, and it's nice. Good option if you get hunger while shopping at Myeongdong street.

As mentioned in the previous comments, this subway store gives poor service, and no deep fried potatoes as advertised are provided even after 11 am. The employees lack patience. A better subway store near chungmuro station has a much better service and food.

Worst customer service ever
The lady at the counter probably doesn’t like her job 🙂 she was very rude and no patience. Very unfortunate to have found this place for a quick bite
(Had veggie delite )

요즘은 명동성당 전망 있는 카페 많이 가시는 것 같아요. 그런데 명동성당 자체는 육안으로 보고, 오히려 한적하고 규모가 큰 스타벅스 매장이 있습니다.

The cinema is located in a convenient location, especially for tourists who are staying on the near by hotels in Myeongdong. The screen and sound system are ok, but the seats are a bot worn. Still a good place to catch a movie.

Cozy, neat place. Had an event by Eathentic. Did not expected to find this little gem. Would be a cool place to hang out, have a cup of tea, and read a book or two.

Good service, the lady at the counter was very friendly even though I could not speak Korean. Has a Film library. If you're a film student, you're interested in knowing more about film or you just like exploring, this place is has a beautiful yet sadly underrated, under-discovered library space. Has a good selection of film-related books, many are in English and it has a good number of comfortable seating space to relax and read. Worth visiting.

Korea's most biggest cinema franchise CGV's branch nearby Myeongdong station. Neighboring 'CGV Myeongdong' about 200m. They have only 5 screens but since they schedule their timetable with the 'CGV Myeongdong' it's convinient to find a movie you want. A library specialized in movie called Cine Library is located inside.

A nice theatre. You have to be careful not to confuse it with Myeongdong Station theater though.

Perfectly located on the main st of Myundong with plenty to do and see before and after the movie. The theatre was very clean, comfortable seating and a local favorite.
Definitely worth the visit 👍🏻

It's complicated to get to (lots of escalators) but just take the elevator. Has massage chairs and nice waiting are, bathroom is ok. But leaving the theatre is kind of dodgy though...
Reasonable prices, clean amenities, and an excellent location. The screening quality is good, and they have access to the main blockbusters, foreign and Korean.
Downside in my experience this far is the sound didn't seem to have been adjusted for the smaller cinema size, so the volume seemed waaaay louder than I would have preferred.

Since I came on a Monday morning, there were no people and it was nice to watch a movie.
I went to see Gran Turismo.
It is connected to Lotte Department Store
I like it because it’s easy to shop.

앞으로 명동 여행, 여기를 오는 모든 분들에게
명동거리 위 많은 가게들이 있습니다. 그리고 위에서 살펴본 것처럼 가볼 곳 또한 정말 많아서, 날 잡고 오더라도 하루 안에 모든 걸 다 경험한다는 건 쉽지 않습니다.
명동길거리 위 가게들은 영업시간이 있습니다. 다른 말로 하면, 하루 중 언젠가는 문을 닫습니다. 하지만 명동거리는 24시간 입니다.
군산 결혼식 갔다가 서울 올라와서 늦은 시각 밥집으로 향하던 어느 날, 홀로 너무 힘들어서 내 삶에 사람 냄새라도 나기를 바라는 마음에 거리 위를 방황하던 어느 날.
무수히 많은 시간을 보낸 사람으로서 꼭 한번 가보시길 바랍니다. 서울에는 명동이 있습니다. 명동에는 사람이 있습니다. 사람은 추억을 가지고 갑니다.
