More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the bus into a neighborhood wired with beats — neon posters, merch stalls, and groups trading album recommendations. The guide, young and fluent in K‑culture shorthand, reads the crowd and steers the day: a museum of idol production, a street-market for fan goods, Seongsu’s creative alleys, and a closing table laden with chimaek (chicken and beer) where conversation keeps tempo.
