How Did I Get There: Walk using Naver Map
Daeo Bookstore is the oldest bookstore in Seoul and its antique roof stands out among the buildings surround it.
There's a restroom in the cafe with other areas decked out like as though it was someone's home.
The bookstore have been visited by celebrities such as RM from BTS and IU. (Photo credits to them)
The spot where RM was at is a popular spot among the fans (including myself). While I was there, I saw a fellow ARMY tearing up just because she was at the same spot. #imserious
A lot of the antiques are well-maintained and clean, making it a pleasant spot for your photoshoot. If you are planning to head there alone, fret not as there is a basket of tripods and monopods that is free for all to use. (refer to photo below on the right side)
Unfortunately, the bookstore only offers drinks and no other food are available. But they do give free dalgona candy as a service.
After a while, the ARMY and another group of customer left so I was the only one there.
Although there were no light snacks to consume while chilling there, the bookstore offers several souvenirs ranging from bookmarks, canvas bags and other stationeries.
That's all I have for this place.
