SEOUL
Seoul is a dynamic mega-city in the midst of an architectural and cultural renaissance. Named 2010
World Design Capital, all eyes are on Seoul and all that it has to offer – emerging technologies, a booming
art scene, trendy districts and thriving youth culture. Its light speed transformation from historic city to
a glittering metropolis that successfully marries traditional Korean values with a high tech vision of the
future makes Seoul the place to visit in 2011.

HONGDAE
Considered a symbol of Korea’s youthfulness, the vibrant student Hongdae district is the centre of Seoul’s fashion, nightlife and live-
music scene. Home to Korea’s famous art school Hongik University, Hongdae is the go-to place for discovering the latest trends.
Quirky boutiques featuring fashion-forward collections, exciting vintage outlets (Divine Comedy, Joux Joux and Salon Yong) and artsy
cafes (including Giocat, a cat café!) will keep you occupied during the day, while the night time opens up to Hongdae’s many clubs,
bars and Karaoke rooms.

KoolHaas, this reservation-only museum in the Yongsan district of Seoul showcases established and emerging artists alongside
historical artefacts. The current exhibition, ‘Memories of the Future’ showcases the work of emerging Korean artist including Jackson

If you like nothing more than browsing through heaps of accessories and clothes whilst listening to the latest DJ sounds in a dynamic
after-hours setting, then the Bling & Plantoon Night Flea Market will definitely be your thing. Held in the trendy Platoon Kunsthale,
a dynamic space for subculture events in the upscale Cheongdam area on the 1st Saturday of every month, this collaborative
event between the venue and club culture magazine ‘Bling’ attracts hoards of super stylish bargain hunters. We particularly like the
