historical tragedy was happened.
It was the end of Great South Gate's 600 years history.

I've never imagined it vanishing so easily.
It's too sad.




Here's the Cafe 'Coffeest' in Gwanghwamun (infront of Sungkok Museum) where you can enjoy the best taste and smell of coffee. Actually it depends on the person's taste...but I always recommand this coffee place whenever I met my friends. Even though some of them don't like to drink coffee, this place's good place to stay and talk.




There are not many tables so sometime we need to share the big table with other people.
If you don't mind, this will also quite good mood and you can play something-drawing/writing on guestbook or punching the animal shape hole on paper or printing stamps- while waiting your coffee to serve. Usually it takes 4-5minutes for each cup of coffee, because they serve the coffee with a whole process-grinding beans & dripping with care. Take your time and just sitting and enjoying a delicious smell of freshly-brewed coffee.












I bought 2 kind of coffee (grind coffee bean) in a paper bag,
I could smell good on my way home.





location     By Subway

> Kwanghwamun Station (the Subway Line no. 5 - the Purple Line )
Take Exit 7. Go straight towards Seodaemun to the Salvation Army Center Turn right and go 400 meters to Sungkok museum. You can see the cafe on your left.



You can find this Ho-tteok street shop easily,
because there's always a long~ waiting line for buying this!


finally, I got it!
(I've been there so many times, but this is my first try.)



It was crispier than the others and
ingredients also quite good~ (it might be...brown sugar, peanuts, walnuts and
some more. It could be a secret of their own so I was just guessing)




Actually...I forgot how much was it. -_-a
Is there anybody knows it..?
