것What it is

The streets around Hongik University, west of the river. Seoul’s official guide describes a lively college town of cafés and galleries; its R2 street is the busking street, with live shows and seasonal events in spring and autumn, and the R1 Red Culture Market adds flea markets and traditional activities.

하는 법How to do it

Arrive at Hongik University station on line 2 and walk away from the main road. Busking is an evening thing; the clubs open late. Cash is useful at stalls, cards everywhere else.
