The city organization closest to Europe in Korea is definitely Euljiro. Joseon, this place was called ‘Gurigae’. This place, which was renamed ‘Hwanggeumjeong’ during the Japanese colonial period and given another upright name ‘Eulji-ro (named after General Eulji Mundeok) after liberation, is lined with buildings that are as young as 50 years old and as long as 100 years old. It is in the center of Seoul. This old urban fabric is filled with modern spaces, and like Europe, part of the interior and exterior of the old space is preserved and the style is maintained through repairs.

It's like visiting a friend's house, a collector who loves music and art. Euljiro #Lost and Found . A high-quality music selection that can only be enjoyed at a dark bar late at night is here at brunch time on Sunday. 80-90's funk & disco mood! 💃🏻. It's fun to check the Sunday brunch menu that changes every week. The menu lineup is simple, but the generous servings make it even more reassuring. . I like how I am here. That's good. 120% moody taste. A moody that didn't inspire hip-jiro because he didn't like the kitsch Euljiro sensibility that was born out of nowhere. This should be enough for steamed hipjiro. Gak to go to Damju again. 🖤 . ▫️Wednesday-Saturday evening bar, Sunday brunch / Close to parking ▫️Chungmuro 4-gil 5 2nd floor

A dessert bingsu with visuals reminiscent of a work of art, featuring dragon fruit🍧. Cafe Catalog, located directly across the street from the exhibition hall of Space Catalog, introduced a new visual dessert bingsu using the metal tray in the shape of stairs made by OTC after the exhibition of the furniture design studio OTC ended on July 23. The bingsu consists of milk ice sprinkled with raspberry puree, topped with dragon fruit cubes, alongside vanilla ice cream, half a dragon fruit, and condensed milk, offering an unparalleled visual dessert experience. The combination of ingredients such as dragon fruit and ice cream was excellent, and it tasted as good as it looked.✨ Although the exhibition has ended, you can still see OTC's lighting and tray at Cafe Catalog. From July 29 to August 18, artist Cha Seul Ah's 'PET' exhibition will take place at Space Catalog, so visit the cafe too :) Raspberry Dragon Fruit Bingsu 22,000 won.

Eulji-ro, a city that retains Seoul's past, is listed in Curation No. 1, but there are still many buildings that are over 100 years old without realizing it. At the same time, they are really old spaces that are still in business. Among them, the old space owner said goodbye to the space, and the remaining spaces share their lives with another owner as they do now. This is the Euljiro branch of Cafe Allmost Home. The second floor is full of afterimages of residential spaces in Seoul from the past. A unique experience to enjoy modern programs in a space of the past. That is the charm of this place. - A space that will not disappear in the future? - Many cafes have been created and disappeared since 2014. In Seoul, Busan, Daegu and Daejeon, cafes with various appearances have emerged, and in 20 years, absurdly great spaces have been created through the program called cafes. - In the meantime, the coffee industry may have increased the size of the market, but the public's view of the space has increased significantly in 20 compared to 2014. Now, people who say they've been to a few cafes can tell how much preparation they've made just by taking the first step, placing an order and receiving coffee. - Now, spaces that seem to disappear no longer appear often. - It is a space made by renovating an old factory in Euljiro into a cafe, but now it is implemented with a clear meaning of what needs to be left and what needs to be fixed. There are a lot of spaces where the context of regeneration is architecturally well resolved by applying a reinforcement structure instead of using a wooden structure as decoration. - In the midst of this trend, #EuljiDarak has kept the forgotten clothes and culture of the old factory partly and partly with the space. It is so kind that it explains in what context it was intended to revive this space. Also, the signature menu called #Daldali Coffee is very similar to that of Dabang Coffee, so that coffee can also match the land of Euljiro. And at the same time, they serve dalgona together. - How do we interpret the past in the present? - What to keep and what to throw away? - Actually, it's a very difficult option. - But, like the coolness you feel while drinking coffee in a coffee shop with plenty of ice on a hot summer day, this place has opened up the space wisely and clearly. - The first floor is a coffee shop [All Most Home], and the second floor is a showroom containing the story of Kolon Sports. - On the way, I recommend this space in the attic of Eulji to take a glimpse of what our grandmothers, grandfathers, mothers and fathers were like. - As always, the menu is attached. 🙏🏻

Chapter 1 of 《The Usefulness of Use》 presented by 8 writers and designers
⠀
-Exhibition Introduction -
The eight artists and designers presented in Chapter 1 of 'Useful for Use' share the fact that they work with everyday items that have a specific purpose as a medium. They use the process of giving use to a work as the main narrative that builds it, while defining the meaning of use in a variety of ways. Various aspects are unfolding in the exhibition hall, such as reversing the purpose of using a painting hanging on the wall as the top of the desk, or resetting the standard of use by using materials far from convenient as the formative language of the work. In this process, we tried to visualize the relationship between beauty and use by exhibiting in a curatorial method of placing chairs on an exhibition stand or hanging tables in the form of installations.
⠀
The process of naming their creations as works and bringing them to the exhibition is an attempt to create a discourse about the relationship between use and beauty to be defined in art. In the process of being formed, we want to convey the various aspects of 'practicable works', paying attention to the relationship between the artist's concept of work and the use they gave to their work.

Where is Korea in Europe? As a space artist, this is by far the closest urban organization to Europe in Korea. It starts with a story that no one knew but of a neighborhood that everyone likes. - In Joseon, this place was called 'Gurigae'. The name was changed to 'Golden Pavilion' during the Japanese colonial period, and after liberation, it was given another upright name, and there are many buildings that are as short as 50 years old and as long as 100 years old. It is located in the heart of Seoul, and most people do not know about it. - Europe's great cities Paris, London, Barcelona and Venice all live their lives in the style of those times. Tourists come to Europe to enjoy the appreciation of its past styles. A 100-year-old restaurant, a 100-year-old hotel. The value is really great. It is because of the will and efforts of countless people to preserve and use food for over 100 years. So now people live it highly. As of the second half of 2010, Korea is also working hard to find ways to preserve and preserve the past style and maintain life. - This is not a place where one building proves its worth. The impression that the urban organization attached to the road shows harmonious harmony is still practically in use today. Some of the past acts are being kept as they are, and new acts are using this space with a little change. - New programs such as cafes, artists' studios, restaurants, pubs, wine bars, art shops, and galleries maintain the same legacy as old shops such as lighting, ceramics, sewing machines, tools, and electronics. They energize and the Seoul Metropolitan Government recognizes their value, and is trying to provide wonderful spaces at a huge cost. Even now, people still come here. On Friday nights, the old pub on the street is bustling. On weekends off, the new spaces hidden in this urban organization are lively with the noise of visitors. Even on weekdays, those who visit these new spaces overshadow the dead 2010. - It is not a phenomenon achieved by one space. How do you know the value of this place, keep the style, and use the new space? It is the result of the many people who have pondered on this issue and have been cultivating it one by one with their own answers. And public institutions are also contributing to the efforts of Seoul citizens. - Most of us enjoyed this place at least once or more. In modern times, it is said that it is a representative urban organization that shows Real Korean Hip. It even has fonts. In fact, we all knew the value of this urban organization that was hidden in our lives. It could just be that he remained unconscious and was not aware of it. - I hope that this trend will remain deeply entrenched in the perceptions of the owners of this era, and in 2050, this will become Korea's Europe. - This is Eulji-ro, a road named after the Goguryeo general during the Three Kingdoms period. - Symbol of Eulji-ro 1968 Sewoon Shopping Center, by Kim Su-geun _ Presently Hello-Sewoon

Once upon a time, it was said that rooftops would become trendy. Years have passed since then, and of course, Euljiro was not in mind. There was only a trend, without the anticipation of a social disaster like COVID-19. Back in the day, the mere opportunity to feel the wavering breeze of a good season, to get slightly tipsy with the warmth of the sun-soaked ground before sunset, and to blankly observe the end of the day under a sunset sky was a long-held fantasy for many. That fantasy made even the most ordinary food special through storytelling and transformed regular alcoholic beverages into something with potential. The breeze from high places brought an emotion beyond expectation, turning into a spectacular fantasy without the need for madness or over-immersion. Even if it meant waiting indefinitely, cramped spaces, and allocating what seems like endless time, people willingly engaged in it. Witnessing a linear waiting line as soon as one finishes a break time or entering a store only to find a friendly smile from the staff and a waiting list with at least three teams ready to roam the streets puts things into perspective. ‘To avoid waiting, one practically had to set off yesterday.’ A wait of an hour to a generous hundred minutes was the norm. The more worn-out ceilings and inconveniently low headspaces were not significant issues but rather, aspects easily laughed off. Social disasters have emphasized the importance of private spaces. Yet, whispers of desire for exclusivity spread quickly. The sight of people gathered at a spot seemingly untouched by any natural disaster, societal tragedy, or pandemic, momentarily quenching their thirst amidst the prolongation of COVID-19, adhering to preventive measures, and promising to maintain distance, reflects not just the Korean spirit of leisure but an obsession. Euljiro, famously known as Hipjiro, maintains its warm and steady state despite expectations of cooling down. Inside quiet alleys, where outside views predict inactivity, people fervently share experiences of unjust times, energetically spending time behind masks in the obscured scenes of Euljiro.

“Night and Day Emotional Bar” This sensibility… Would it be okay to come at night?✨ If I did, would I end up only drinking alcohol in Eulji-ro, deep in the mountains? The glare of becoming a cafe during the day and a wine bar at night was taking in the sunlight as it came during the day☀️ Last time I visited, it was night, so I only drank On the Rock, but when I came during the day, there would be a cafe and delicious French toast☕️ 's sensibility does not change day or night😌

Today, I'm introducing you to one of my favorite pubs these days, Euljiro Chai. Chai is a place that does not aim for a specific cuisine but offers a variety of menus that can show intuitive tastes that the chef likes. From gnocchi that almost everyone is looking for, to homemade charcuterie, you can enjoy a wide range of spectrums. Thus, it can be said that it is a perfect place for people who love alcohol. Not only gnocchi and lamb ribs are great here, but if you want to have a special experience in Chai, the best way to enjoy Chai is also to eat the recommended menu by the chefs. It is also advantageous that it can meet the needs of any type of alcohol, whether it be beer, spirits, traditional alcohol, sake, wine etc, no alcohol is missing. It was because the representative and the chef paid attention to the pairing, it showed a great combination with the food. As it is already popular, it is hard to reserve, so I recommend those who are interested to reserve early. If you go often, the chef often makes a hidden menu that is not on the menu. Thanks to it, I'm eating well.

Many things dance in one space in Chungmuro.
freshly brewed coffee,
Tiramisu with rum,
the chat we share.
In the mirror spinning in the center
It is reflected as if dancing in all directions.
It's like you don't want to disturb this quiet ballroom
the space we occupied
It is completely cut off from the barista's space.

Gyeongil-ok Pizzeria
Kyung Il-ok Pizzeria🍕
Gyeongilok Pizzeria, the only Italian pizza restaurant in Euljiro, has a unique atmosphere and a perfect match with the commercial district.
Chef Gyeong Il-ok learns pizza in Rome, Naples, and New York, and bakes the current pizza based on that experience.
The variety of pizzas and reasonable prices are the strengths of Kyung Il-ok Pizzeria, and since you run it by yourself, you can feel the chef's style on every table.
He is good at pasta, but ordering a lot of pizza is probably the best way to enjoy Gyeongilok Pizzeria.
