Itaewon and Sinheung Market in May 2026

I took a lap around the Itaewon area. If you have eaten bread, you have to exercise, right? First I swung by nearby Sinheung Market, then headed down into Itaewon.

It is up on a hill, yet it is packed with people. I guess they all made the climb because they are young.

There used to be nothing here, but now there are benches and an observation deck. I think this is a good idea. Lots of foreign visitors come through here, so setting up things like this properly is what makes people enjoy the place, no?
