Seongsu-dong 2025.1.4. (Sun)
Seoul Seongsu-dong
[Seongsu Yul]
My son Jae-won had an early appointment,
so
after giving him breakfast,
I told my husband,
“Let’s go on a trip to Seoul too.”
“Where?”
he asked.
I replied,
“Is it as sweet as honey?”
Haha.
Newly Opened
Seongsu Yul Cafe


Opens at 10 AM
🎶
On Instagram,
I saw a post introducing a listening room
on the 3rd floor of the cafe,
and that during the soft opening,
you could get 30 minutes of free listening
with cafe use.
(The event has now ended.)
[Floor Guide]

After a delicious lunch
at Neungdong Minari
(15-minute wait)
We revisited Blue Elephant
to browse glasses for a bit,
then
visited Seongsu Yul
for coffee.

The entrance
was already impressive.
However,
from the outside,
it has a red brick exterior
and no sign,
so I thought
people might not know it’s a cafe.

Still,
there’s a bread poster
that could serve as a hint.

The interior
exudes a chic black vibe.

A single tree visible
through the floor-to-ceiling window.

To the left,
the bakery showcase.




The eclairs’
visuals were
amazing ♡
[Packaging Boxes]


In units of 3

Plain

Dubai Choco Salt Bread

Red Bean Paste Butter Salt Bread
They are not the typical
shape of salt bread.
(Pastry)

Vanilla/Matcha Flan

Coffee Beans/Drip Coffee

I ordered
one Vanilla Flan,
an Americano (nutty flavor),
and a decaf cafe latte.


The space has different levels.
In person…
it’s a bit darker
and the atmosphere is quiet,
giving a calm feeling.
[2nd Floor]

A long, L-shaped black sofa.

A duplex structure
connected from the 1st floor.

Chandelier.
[Self-Bar]

Neatly set up.

Inside,
a semi-transparent panel wall.
[Secret Room]

Seats 6 people.
There are theater-style crimson curtains,
so you can close them
when it’s in use.

The coffee and dessert I ordered.
My husband
raved about the Americano
multiple times, saying it was
sooooo delicious ♡
Over 100% satisfied.
Uses Guatemalan beans with a nutty flavor,
blended with two others
(medium-dark roast).

Decaf Cafe Latte
has a rich body
and a dark roast.
Slight acidity
at the end.
No nutty flavor,
so I was 92% satisfied.

Vanilla Flan
Near Hongdae Sangsu Station,
there’s a famous
‘Flan Specialty Shop’,
and the visuals were completely different
from that place.
(Egg tart shape)

Cut into 3 large pieces.
Inside,
it’s filled with moist custard vanilla cream.
Crispy outside, moist inside.
The outside is flaky
with visible layers,
and the vanilla cream
is a bit sweet.
It’s torched on top,
preserving the vanilla aroma.
I wanted to try other desserts too.
Good ♡



[Mute Space]
From the outside,
it looks like a long chimney.
Moving from the 2nd floor to the balcony
connects directly to it.


Entry is allowed for one team at a time.
Indirect lighting creates
a mystical feel.

On our Seongsu-dong outing,
my husband, looking young~~
in his hoodie,
took a proof shot ♡
Haha.**

A chimney structure
with an open ceiling.

Opposite the Mute Space,
even in winter,
there’s a lush green
bamboo photo zone.
[3rd Floor]
Listening Room

from the 2nd-floor cafe.

Playlist.

[Ticket Purchase]

[Music Space]

Dolby Sound System.

At your table,

you want to listen to.

[My Husband’s Song Request]
Josh Groban’s
“You Raise Me Up.”
Lyrics appear on screen.
Good ♡
My husband was moved
by the atmosphere and teared up.**

It’s a mini theater-style structure,
modern and classic.
First of all,
the sound and audio quality
were
so, so good.
♡^^♡
[My Song Request]
Jeonramhoe’s Kim Dong-ryul’s
“Sketch of Memories.”
My absolute favorite ♡
Listen to it! ♡
It brings back memories
of my 20s.
In Busan’s Nampo-dong,
at the Mua
music listening room,
I spent years of my youth.
It reminded me of those times,
so I called my best friend
who accompanied me then,
after I got home.
The environment here
is even better than Mua,
and the audio equipment
is also excellent.
I told her we should definitely go together next time.
[4th Floor]

Duplex structure.
[Rooftop]

Living room & bar kitchen.
A luxurious living room feel ♡


Since there were no other guests,
I could take photos freely.
The vibe is so good ♡


The cafe’s interior
is to my taste ♡

It looked like a beacon tower,
so I looked at it with curiosity. Haha.**

The rooftop outdoor area
is cozy.
Seongsu Yul Cafe…
It’s located about
a 7 to 10-minute walk
from the main street.
It was a wonderful cafe
that I would recommend
to friends and acquaintances.
To my neighbors,
if you like delicious coffee, bread,
and music,
please visit~~ ♡
Wishing you good health today too ♡
