Zach ValentinerApril 25, 2017This was amazing. Good selection of street food, and a range of shops up and down the street. Close to Nanta, Namdaemun market, Deoksugung palace, and a few other places within walking distance.
Just Me .. @what_food23April 12, 2019I am very picky when it comes 2 street food.This street and alley ways have loads of choices.You can’t pass by without having to grab something along your way. Memories last forever.Enjoy every moment
Nana PunyeMay 19, 2016Look for the famous Sulbing cafe. Their selection of bingsu are awesome. After hours of shopping, take a break and try their cheese cake bingsu. The cafe is on a 2nd floor.
dc SevDecember 26, 2015This place is heaven for korean street food.. Gosh..! But they are a bit pricey (for me).. Xmple 1 pcs of korean yummy cheese croissant was 4000won.. Hikss but its yummy!
Naoki FerrioOctober 27, 2017Heaven of inexpensive Korean makeup. But i found out that cosmetics sold here was 2 times more expensive than those which located at malls, for example Nature Republic, Tony Moly and Holika2.
Lots of comestic shops! If you have plenty of time, do check out each one of them and you'll get home with a handful of freebies. No need to buy from their shops. Streetfoods are awesome too!- Girl Travel FactorOctober 25, 2019Love Myeongdong's busy street, shopping stores and food stalls specially at night! Will be going back here!
Kanin S.January 5, 2017Despite the fact that Myeongdong is famous for shopping. It is also a good place to grab authentic Korean street food. So replenish your energy after shopping with street food!
TingJanuary 24, 2016Tourist destination. Bustling stalls line the streets at night offering seasonal snacks and Korean streetfood. I like the juicy strawberry with redbean wrapped with Mochi. 2500W a piece.

Ernesto CañizaresJuly 7, 2013Line 2 subway stn.., Myeong-Dong is quite convenient going to the infamous N Tower. Take a cable car costing KW8k v.v. and hola you're there in a jiffy! Don't forget the bring "pentel" pen! 😁
Always packed with people, locals and tourists, most salespersons are able to speak Mandarin, if not being a Chinese. It actually feel weird when you go in a shop and they you with Mandarin instead.

Magdalena MrázkováOctober 27, 2017Shop till you drop has gotten to a whole new level - you are bombarded by store hunchmen who are trying to lure you into shops and persuade you by special offers to buy more than you’ll ever need
