After a nice meal at the Korean restaurant, let's enjoy a walk at the Olympic Park. Walking up and down the hills, you can find a Lonely Tree standing alone on a wide meadow. Countless families, friends and couples are making a heartwarming memory by the tree taking their selfies. Hills surrounding a wide meadow, the sky over the hillside and the rooftop of high-rise buildings seem strikingly beautiful.



On the other side, you can hear a crowd sing-along. In the 88 Lawn Field, various festivals are held regardless of the season. Various indoor concerts are also held at the nearby KSPO DOME, and this place is crowded with mass fans visiting to enjoy K-POP concerts. If you love K-POP, this place is definitely worth visiting.



The final destination of the Seoul Heritage Tour is Seongnae-dong. It is where the so-called "Kang Full Comic Street" is located. The legendary webtoonist Kang Full was born and raised there. His representative webtoon characters are painted in murals on each street. Why don't you look for webtoon characters hiding in unexpected places through the alleys? It would be a more satisfying experience if you had ever enjoyed his masterpieces.



There is one more reason to recommend Seongnae-dong. This is because there is a nice drinking bar there to enjoy a glass of alcohol to end the day. It is recommended to order a cold beer or a glass of fragrant whiskey and wrap up the day with a pleasant conversation with a lover or friend who has been with you to Seongnae-dong. Of course, it's good to muse alone.

Editor's Comments: Taipan Moru, located in the middle of Kang Full Comic Street has moved a small bar that may be hiding in the corner of an alley in a quiet neighborhood in Japan. Cute Japanese-style props occupy the space appropriately, and the moderate interior creates a comfortable air. The signature menu is Classic Okonomiyaki. It is easy to eat since the menu is made of yam and eggs without using any flour dough. Various meat and vegetable toppings are in exquisite harmony with the sweet and salty teriyaki sauce. In addition, lets order Kani Misoyaki, the combination of fried abalone and vegetables with crab intestines sauce, or Beef Seafood Nabe which boasts deep taste, with a cool highball.

Representative Menu :

1. whiskey

2. cocktail

Editor's Comments: Balam is also located in the middle of Kang Full Comic Street. The simple exterior is monotonous, but on the other hand, stimulates strange curiosity. Inside Balam, a luxurious and comfortable drinking bar appears, contrary to expectations. The drinking bar has too many options to pick up a separate signature menu. Various whiskey and cocktail bottles filling the wall catch the eye. If you have a well-liked liquor, it won't be a problem, but if you don't, it's also good to get recommendations. Visit with a light heart like the wind, wrap up the day with your favorite drink and prepare for tomorrow.
