WHAT SEONGSU IS

Seongsu is an eastern Seoul neighborhood where former workshops and industrial buildings now sit beside cafés, fashion stores, beauty spaces and creative studios.

WHY PEOPLE GO THERE

The contrast between older industrial streets and polished new spaces gives the area a distinctive atmosphere, while frequent pop-ups create reasons to return.

HOW TO EXPLORE IT

Start around Seongsu Station or Seoul Forest and walk the side streets rather than following only one destination. Cafés, stores and temporary spaces are scattered throughout the area.
