Unfortunately I forgot to recharge my camera battery before I left the house, so I only got a couple pics of the very modern, very cute, and very well designed Jukjeon area. You can tell this area is a little newer, because even with the huge highrises and standard set of stores, an eye for aesthetics is being taken into consideration while it is being built. We went to a great little walking street lined with restaurants and local coffee shops. No Leaf and Bean and TomandToms here, each store was individual inside and out, and the place we went for the Bookleaves bookclub had a great menu.
Bookleaves Crew - Aren't they nice looking people?
Apples
Typical Korean cityscape.
We read The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society

That’s so neat you went to Jukjeon! My girlfriend and I lived there…well…in Ori last year, but we taught in Jukjeon and walked past all the places you photo’d on our meanderings home. Funny to see those silver apples again and the bridge by E-mart. Glad you made it over to that little odd corner of Bundang, tho’ there is a Tom N Tom’s and a Coffee Bean, both in Ori, tho’ there’s also the *BEST* Coffee in Korea at a place called Clara’s not far from Ori station that’s totally worth the trip next time you’re in at the end of the Bundang rails.
Cheers!
