There seem to be an abundance of coffee shops, LP music cafes, restaurants, clothing shops, bakeries, botiques, art galleries, 'tagged' walls, the park near the university, game rooms, etc. (in addition to all the bars and nightclubs). What are your favorites? Know of any off the beaten path places?

This guy lives near Hongdae and covers a lot of restaurants/cafes in the area:

Nearby in Sinchon is a cool bar that looks like you're inside a cow on mushrooms.

That bar sounds vaguely familiar. It wouldn't happen to be all white inside, would it?

I like the park, but I'm easily amused. Go at 2 a.m. when everyone is good and drunk and its like an outdoor norebang with live music.
