Have fun."

"I walked into the store at the front and found a lot of cute bookmarks, but then the cash register was not working so the employee took us to the back where there were more crafts. I was actually having a hard time finding souvenirs during my trip to Korea. However, I liked this place had everything, some things maybe out of others’ budgets and other things at reasonable pricing. They have many handmade or locally made things here - accessories, home goods, hand mirrors with mother of pearl, lots of bags and scarves, etc. The staff are also very attentive and nice."
