HONGDEA AREA
Hongdae
One of the favorite hangouts for the trendy youth in Seoul. The Hongdae area can best be summed up in one word: Underground. The area forms a large-sale commercial district bristling with artsy cafes and lie clubs where Indie bands play anything from rock n roll to alternative underground music as well as eating establishments, clothing and accessory shops lining both sides of the street. That stretches from Hongik University station to Hongik University and its vicinity. Aptly nicknamed Picasso Street, the young streets, the young streets experimental and vibrant artistic atmosphere draws young crowds from across Seoul.

Theater Sanulim
Korea Apartment
This little theater, comprised of two basement levels and three stories aboveground, was opened in 1985 and primarily stages performances by the theater troupe Sanulim. It is a favorite stage of some of Korea's most acclaimed actresses including Jeong-ja Park, Suk Son and Seok-hwa Yun. This acclaim is partly due to the perception in the theater world of Sanulim as a guardian of professional pride; it never stoops to mass-distributing invitations or to offer discount admission fees. Sanulim is also a platform for feminist and experimental theater as well.
