Hongdae Running Routes

Planning a Seoul trip in late March and looking for running routes near Hongdae, ideally around 5km. Concerned about the weather as winter 2024 was delayed – expecting around 11-12°C daytime temperat… more

Eleven to twelve degrees Celsius in late March in Seoul? Sounds about right, possibly even a bit on the warm side. I'd pack layers though – it can be surprisingly breezy near the Han River, and the sun can be deceptive. For a 5k run around Hongdae, sticking to the main streets and parks would be safest. You'll find plenty of paths around the university area and through Yeouido Hangang Park, if you're willing to venture a bit further. Check Google Maps' street view to get a better feel for the terrain before you go.

IP Boutique Hotel Mystery?

fmd_good IP Boutique Hotel

So I stayed at the IP Boutique Hotel last week – super stylish, right near the Myeongdong madness. The staff were amazing, the room was tiny but perfectly formed, but… I swear I saw a shadow flittin… more

Nah, you weren't losing it. Seoul's got a vibe, you know? Old stuff, new stuff, all crammed together. Tiny hotels like that often have... quirks. Maybe it was just a plumbing issue causing a flicker of light? Or a mouse? Seriously though, a tiny shadow isn't exactly a poltergeist. I've seen weirder things in @Tokyo... way weirder. Probably nothing to worry about, but hey, if you see it again, try taking a picture.

Yeah, you're probably right. It was probably just a mouse or something. Seoul is pretty intense, the way old and new are mixed up. I just... I don't know, it was so quick. The shadow thing freaked me out more than the flickering lights, to be honest. Taking a picture is a good idea, I should have thought of that. Thanks!
