TONG-IN

Antique shop

This four-storey store specializes in antiques. It is the oldest store devoted to traditional arts. It's one of the best-known shops on Insa-dong Street, and it's easy to see why, as it's packed with interesting things. In fact, it's as much a store as an exhibition gallery. You'll find very well-made souvenirs at a good price (always a good thing). Even if you don't want to buy anything, a visit isn't a waste of time, as the store is really quite charming.

GALLERY PARK YOUNG SOOK (ATELIER SEOUL)

Tableware and china store

In this small ceramics shop, you can find celadons and other typical Korean pottery. There are traditional porcelains and others with a touch of modernity. Note that the shop has a small aura in the street because Queen Elizabeth II stopped there during her official trip in 1999 (photos are there to remind it). The artist Park Young Sook also has a shop in New York, which is a sign of his fame!
