Is this liberation village? Casablanca, Storage Book & Film, Sofiti

Yongsan-gu, Seoul, Korea

Liberation Village, an exotic building with old buildings and old signs. If you walk a little further on this unfamiliar and familiar street, you will be waiting for Seoul in the 1960s, with a building on a steep hill. In the spring when the rain falls, I left for the pleasure of the Liberation Village.
Liberation Village, the name of the overseas Koreans who returned to their homeland in 1945 and the displaced people. No matter how you listen, this strange neighborhood is emerging as a hot street. Introducing the hot place of Haebangchon, where you can enjoy the charms different from Itaewon and Gyeongridangil, already filled with the smell of 2000s.
Is this liberation village? Morocco? Casablanca
In small spaces, people are gathering together. It's mostly foreigners too. Even the orderer is a charming foreigner with bushy beards, so it's easy to wonder if it's overseas. If you look back and outside, this is a liberation village.
Casablanca can always see foreigners loyal
Casablanca, run by two brothers from Morocco, has a taste of Moroccan that is so good that Daniel Tudor, author of 'A Country Who Lost Miracles, Lost Joy', said, 'It's much better than Itaewon's expensive food.' . Most of the ingredients and condiments used for the large and thick sandwiches for the price are real exhaust through their hands. We hope that foreigners can taste their hometown at an affordable price.

The simple yet generous ingredients in the savory, hot baguette are a good example of Morocco's intense and addictive exotic flavor. Shrimp sandwiches with Moroccan sauce and Harry's Hot Sauce are the most popular dishes! The Moroccan Chicken Sandwich, with its curry-flavored chicken and vegetables, is also available.

In addition, soup made from lentil beans, which are said to be good for health, and `` Makuda '', a potato croquette that is also enjoyed as a street food in Morocco, is also an unusual menu.

If you want a limited edition book, 'Storage Book & Film'
If exotic restaurants tempt you at the beginning of the liberation village, the world of those who are quietly living their lives without signboards over the steep hillsides raises questions. Among them, 'Storage Book & Film', which is located near the three-way intersection of emerging churches, is an independent bookstore that started with the sale of film cameras and has now expanded to the distribution of independent publications.
The shop is simple but there are a lot of treasures to see.
In addition to independent publications, the camera is based on various kinds of photo books. Independent magazine 'Walkjin' is a collection of photographs published by bookstore owners. Season 1, the last greeting with 22 episodes, consisted of 45-60 photographs of a city captured by one person. Is filling. If you want to participate, you can knock on the bookstore door.

In addition, there are various lectures related to publishing such as InDesign, book binding, and calligraphy. In particular, the four-week photo book making and independent publishing courses are solid enough to be consistently found by people.

Soapy genie where soap becomes work
In the past, there are various types of studios that look like hidden paintings between the alleys. Two years ago, when you open the door of the soap studio Sopizini, you will be greeted by the fragrances that make your sense of smell happy and the colors of the eyes strong.
Cutely decorated studio is cozy
The master's job is an English teacher. Soap making, a long-time hobby, became another happiness that can't be removed from life after five years since it started selling in flea markets. Not only the fragrance and color, but also the potency of each soap, her efforts go all the way to shine even more.
Emotional handmade soaps that can only be found in Sopigini
Like the British handmade cosmetics brand, Rush, we hope to become Korea's leading handmade soap brand beyond Haebangchon.

It is a warm spring day to hold hands with your loved ones. How about leaving your first outing with a liberation village where your senses as well as your eyes, nose and mouth are happy?
