Have you heard?

Seoul Metro will be raising its fares in Q3 of 2023, which means it’s going to be slightly more expensive to travel via subway in Seoul starting in August or September.

But still, it’s going to be cheaper than cabbing around so… just saying.

And speaking of trains, it’s always easier to visit the shops near the stations, right?

I’ve received a really good response from my last post on newly opened cafes in South Korea last month so here’s another one for all you cafe-thirsty fans.

Oh, and yes, you can catch the post here if you’ve missed it:
