CU vs GS25 vs 7-Eleven vs Emart24: Which Korean Convenience Store Is Best?

Image
You're walking through Seoul. On one corner: CU. Across the street: GS25. Five minutes later: 7-Eleven. Then you spot Emart24. And if this is your first trip to Korea, one question is almost inevitable: Which Korean convenience store should I actually try? QUICK ANSWER Don't search Seoul for one universal “best” convenience store. CU, GS25, 7-Eleven and Emart24 all cover the basics, but their product lines, promotions, store concepts and individual branches can differ. For a first-time traveler, the better strategy is simple: try the convenient branch near you, then visit another major chain later and compare for yourself.

What to Eat at Gwangjang Market: Best Foods for First-Time Visitors

Image
You finally arrive at Gwangjang Market in Seoul. Pancakes are sizzling in oil. Tiny gimbap rolls are stacked on plates. Bowls of bright-red tteokbokki bubble beside steaming fish-cake skewers. And every few steps, someone is eating something that looks better than what you just ordered. So what should you actually eat at Gwangjang Market? FIRST-TIMER ANSWER Start with bindaetteok, mini gimbap and yukhoe. Those three give you three very different sides of Gwangjang Market: crispy mung-bean pancake, simple bite-sized gimbap and Korean beef tartare. If you don't eat raw beef, replace yukhoe with tteokbokki, eomuk or mandu . And most importantly: share your food. Gwangjang Market is much better when you taste several dishes instead of filling up at your first stall. 🥞 #1 First-Timer Pick Bindaetteok 🍙 Easy to Share Mini Gimbap 🥩 Adventurous Pick Yukhoe Remember this combination: 🥞 Bindaetteok + 🍙 Mini...
