hey yall, i'm visiting with my girlfriend and we're staying in gangnam close to sinsa/apgu, we are runners and want to go run by the Han river. Google maps is failing us, could someone please… more
Running along the Han River near Gangnam is totally doable. Take the subway (likely Line 7 or Bundang Line depending on your exact location in Sinsa/Apgujeong) towards the Yeouido or Jamsil area. These areas have extensive river paths. Get off at a station near the river – check Naver Maps (Korean equivalent of Google Maps; it's much better for navigating Seoul) for the closest station to the specific path you want to use. The paths are generally well-maintained and paved, offering varying distances. You'll find lots of other runners and walkers, so it's safe and has a good atmosphere. Just be aware of bike paths and pedestrians, and maybe check the weather forecast before heading out. It's a great idea – enjoy the views!

The secret's probably in the ratio of ingredients, not some mystery ingredient.
