Book Cafe in Gangnam

1. So, you have homework and a noisy little brother who watches TV at full volume, a mother who yells at him, and a father whose stomach rebels loudly against the dinner he has eaten. Time to go to the cafe! You wander around in search of a suitable place, but everywhere there is either music playing or schoolchildren having fun.

2. Well, if you are in Korea, then the problem is solved! Special cafes for classes. Many of them are organized like libraries, and you can't chat there, but you can drink coffee if you pass out over a book.

3. Tip: There are book cafes that aren't... they're just regular cafes with bookshelves. You can talk there, but it's still much quieter than in ordinary places.

Fish pedicure in Gangnam

4. Namu Guneul - here they will pour you more coffee when the ordered one is over, as well as treat you with bread and cookies. But that's not what this place is known for! In special pools, small cute fish live here, which ... pounce on your feet as soon as you put them in the water!

5. They eat dead skin cells better than any peel! Funny feeling.

Hello Kitty Cafe chain

6. This Japanese character is very popular throughout Asia. There is a whole chain of Hello Kitty cafes in Korea and this is perhaps the cutest way to drink coffee and eat cake.

7. If you love pink, you need to go here. If you don't like it, give yourself a pink therapy!

8. If you are Zico, then you are probably already sitting here and eating another cat cake.

Photocafe in Incheon

9. At the heart of every Korean there is a photographer. So why not satisfy the human passion for films and lenses and make themed photo cafes?

10. Cafe'ra is located in Incheon. There are interesting pictures hanging on the walls, but this is not the most interesting.

11. If you came with your camera and ordered a drink, then you will be allowed to use the lenses that are in the cafe and shoot something inside the building.

Charlie Brown Cafe in Seoul

12. This is a chain of cafes, whose establishments can be found in almost any city in Korea. Have a cup of coffee with Snoopy and his friends.

13. If you don't like Hello Kitty, but love cute characters, Charlie Brow is what you need.

14. Cozy interiors, delicious cakes and cocktails, friendly staff… what could be better?

15. There is even a Charlie Brown Cafe branch in the Seoul subway at one of the stations. So if your friends are late for a meeting, you can wait for them at a table overlooking the platform.

dog cafe

16. Most people in Korea do not live alone. Therefore, to get a dog, you need to get the consent of all relatives. And this is where several problems arise. Firstly, in Korean apartments, as a rule, there is not much space for an animal to fit there. Secondly, you have a grumpy grandmother who always doesn’t like everything and who claims that the dog will gnaw on her things on dark nights.

17. There is a way out! Dog cafes that can be found in many cities in Korea. You buy a drink for yourself, a treat for your dog, and you can have as much fun as you like.

cat cafe

18. There are many cat and dog cafes in Korea where animal lovers can relax while drinking tea and listening to the rumbling of a fluffy ball at their side.

19. We all know that the world is divided into those who love dogs and those who prefer cats. We talked about the dog cafe, it's the turn for an alternative option! Cat cafes are not only very cute, but also ... very clean. All cats are healthy and clean and are periodically checked by a veterinarian. Coming to the cafe, do not forget to take off your shoes and put on slippers!

Cafe with ... sheep

20. Suppose you don't like cats or dogs. Koreans have a solution - sheep.

21. Just imagine: the center of a developed metropolis, bustling life around, people running around on business and suddenly ... soft, soft sheep that you can feed with treats bought here.

Camping Cafe in Hongdae
