Fast Food
Fast food in Seoul goes beyond the international chains that line main streets. Korean fried chicken brands, burger joints using Korean beef, and kimbap shops that operate at the speed of fast food have created a parallel fast-food culture that is distinctly local. Food courts in subway stations and department basements serve hot meals with the speed and consistency of fast food but often with the quality of a sit-down restaurant.
Seongbuk-gu
Seongbuk-gu is home to Bukchon's quieter neighbour and Seoul's most literary neighbourhood, with independent bookshops and traditional restaurants tucked between old residential alleys. Ssangmun-dong's street food markets and the traditional teahouses of Samcheong-dong are highlights of this culturally rich but less-touristed district.
