About

It is a street that was naturally formed in the 1960s when US soldiers leaving Korea put out the furniture they used. In a unique atmosphere where East and West, past and present coexist, about 100 shops boast their own individuality. It is full of colorful items ranging from antique furniture from all over Europe to props with oriental beauty, rare vintage lighting, and tableware, making it fun to look around.

Beyond simple shopping, it provides the joy of looking around a museum on the street, and it is a place where you can discover your own special items as if you were on a treasure hunt. It is an attractive space that conveys an analog sensibility by keeping its place for a long time in the fast-changing Itaewon.
