Index Shop - Between Seongsu and Konkuk University

[Sensuous Bookstore]

Enter the Common Ground building and go up to the 3rd floor to find the bookstore index shop. I came here thinking it was a book cafe, but it was a space that sold books and coffee. The reason why it is not a book cafe is because you have to buy a book, not a drink, to sit and read a book that has been printed. You don't have to buy the book, but if you want to read it without buying it, you can stand and read it. Instead, you can stand and read a book without ordering a drink. Personally, I was unfamiliar with Kyobo Bookstores and book cafes, so I was unfamiliar with this concept of bookstores.

Space is sensuous. As soon as you enter, you will forget that the exterior of this place was a blue container. The light and the white tone of the interior harmonize, giving you peace of mind. I also felt that there were different types of books. It may be the case only at the time I visited, but most of them were standing and reading books, but since there is no desk that can stand on their own, I naturally stand in front of the library and read, and it is regrettable that the structure creates an environment where it is difficult for other people to choose a book. Is this bookstore concept more profitable than a book cafe? I think I'll visit to read a book when my legs don't hurt.
