    Thanks for a great video! I´ve been to Seoul several times but only with work but in March I´ll be visiting again and this time I´ll have some holiday as well and these tips are perfect. Just one question regarding Hoho Sikdang restaurant, when I try to search it in google maps it only gives me the address of "35 Daehak-ro 9-gil, Myeongnyun 4(sa)ga, Jongno-gu" which is different from what you specify above and in another area, do you know if there are two restaurants with the same name?

    • @MariesKawaiiWorld
      @MariesKawaiiWorld  Před 5 lety +1

      Hi! That is great you have some time for a holiday. I believe there are 2 locations for Hoho Sikdang. that is the other location.
