  • Today we're exploring the alleys of Insadong. We check out the hidden traditional Korean tea houses and also visit modern cafes that overlook the main street. Perfect for those who love to people watch. Hope you come with an empty stomach because there are so many kinds of bingsoo (Korean shaved ice) to try! And bring a book or a lover to go with your cup of tea :)

    "You know, people watching can be fun, but people watching other people who are people watching... *that's even more fun*" :DD I died

    this is why I love Korea. in little corners of these alleys you can find a new place which is beautiful where you can relax and enjoy the self time, if you are alone or some good company. it must be so wonderful to do that. and I am actually grateful for you showing all these to us.

    The rock at the old tea house is a millstone; it probably had a long working life grinding rice flour before it retired to be a table. :)

    Hi Mina
    I enjoy watching you introducing us to all the wonderful looking Korean foods. I am visiting Seoul this coming May and intend to try as many different foods during my stay. The stone table you sat at in this video was a "millstone" which was used over a hundred years ago to grind grain into flour. The grooves cut into the stone allowed the grain to pass between the two stones as they rotated thus crushing the grains into progressively finer particles. A lot of history in that table.

    Kiki is as cute as a button. Love your latest adventure into the streets - and especially the quaint side streets of Korea, i.e. Insadong! Is Insadong more expensive than Itaewon? I love the traditional look of the places you visited a year ago in Insadong! I'm definitely a tea drinker. Thanks for another delicious episode, Prof.!

    Hello, I watch your videos every once in awhile. I find your voice to be so calming and nice. I had some questions about places to visit in Korea. I've been here for about 8 months but haven't done much exploration and only have about 4 months left. I was wondering if you had any special places that you would recommend. For examples amusement parks (I'm planning on going to Lotte world soon), beaches, cafes (dog, maid, or unusual), etc.
    Some insight about me. I'm 20 years old so I don't have much experience drinking and clubbing. I really enjoy dessert places. I enjoy hiking, shopping, and I'm trying to get out more. My friends and I were hoping to get massages here. Do you have any recommendations. Also, could you provide a hotel or some place to stay near the recommendations.
    Thank you, keep up the great videos!!!!

      Usually, if there's a raised wooden floor in the entrance, then you are supposed to leave your shoes before you step up. You may be able to tell based on other people's shoes being left there, cubby holes for shoes being present, or even just a sign.

    @tvtoms 7 ปีที่แล้ว

    Maybe someone else mentioned this in the comments already, but the rock table you were sitting at around 10:00 with engraved lines appears to be an old mill stone. Maybe not, but it sure looks like one with the grooves to allow the flour or other ground material to flow out to the edge.
