No Experience Required

You step out from a subway mouth into a city that balances palace gates and glass towers within a single skyline. Morning light finds Gyeongbokgung’s painted eaves glowing against a backdrop of high-rises; later, a stream of footsteps follows Cheonggyecheon as office workers and visitors drift past public art. The day moves from quiet hanok alleys in Bukchon to the riotous colors and smells of Gwangjang Market, with a staged pop-culture interlude at HiKR Ground.
