I know there's the Namsan library, but I'm looking for something a bit closer...near Itaewon/HBC.

Desperately need a quiet place to do work.

Don't know if this helps, but I've seen a reading room (독서실) up in Kyeongnidan in the building across the street from the Paris Baguette.

Funny enough, there's also a bar above that same Paris Baguette Spaceman mentioned named 'The Library'.

Thanks, I'll check that out. What exactly is a "reading room" anyway?

[spaceman82]

It's basically a quiet place where people, usually students, pay to study or read, I think. Some might also have books available to read.

I don't think my previous "directions" were very good, by the way. The Paris Baguette in Kyeongnidan faces another street and, if you walk up that street from the Paris Baguette, you should see the reading room up on the 2nd or 3rd floor of one of the buildings on your left.

Hope that helps.
