Hongdae is the most vibrant and youthful neighborhood in Seoul. Clubs, live performances, independent cafes, and street fashion are all concentrated in one place. What kind of neighborhood is it? A cultural district developed around Hongik University. During the day it’s cafes and brunch, while at night it transforms into a completely different atmosphere with clubs and live bars. Yeonnam-dong is a quiet alley neighborhood next to Hongdae with many sensual cafes and restaurants. The Gyeongui Line Forest Path (Central Park) is great for taking a walk.
