There are many office workers around Seolleung. What office workers really need is caffeine.

Right next ot Seolleung, there is an old coffee shop called 'Coffee Bokkneon Jip(coffee roasting house)' that conquered Samseong-dong.

It's been seven years already since I got to know this coffee shop. It was originally only half of its store before, but it has expanded with a lot of support. Currently, there is another store in Yangjae in addition to the first store here.

This is what the interior looks like. It was a popular place, so the small coffee shop was crowded especially during lunchtime. At that time, it was not easy to occupy seats because there were only few tables, but now it's quite large, so there were seats even though it was the peak hours. Of course it was right after lunchtime, so there were take-out customers in line.

The reason why this place is loved more is the price. I can't believe the price of hand drip coffee is so beautiful. It's usually 7,000 won in other coffee shops, and it's only around 4,000 won here.I think it's possible because they roast coffee by themselves. As it's a store that is confident in coffee, most of their menu are coffee drinks.

They also sell coffee beans.

Another pleasure of coffee shop is the interior. This place is full of analog sensibilities. The atmosphere is almost the same as when I fist visited here, so it feels like an old friend.

The owner, who is know for her kindness, is busy preparing my coffee. She's always smiling and sweet even though she's busy with no time to go to the bathroom. The kindness of the owner is as famous as her coffee.

It's fun to find small changes while it's not changing much. Big speakers and furniture are the same as before, but small frames and pictures are new.

Soon my coffee is served. It's in a plastic cup because most of the office workers take out and return to the office.

It's cafe latte and Yegachev ice hand drip. The cafe latte has a strong shot of espresso that is well balanced against milk. And the hand drip coffee has some acidity, just like fresh beans do. Usually, Yegachev is not heavy in flavor, but its quite strong here. Maybe she made it on purpose to maintain the flavor of the coffee until the ice melts. In fact, even though the ice melted and the milk was mixed, its flavor was still there.

If you don't usually enjoy strong coffee, you'd better order a lighter one.

There is is scary sign next to the entrance. It's a bit of a humor.

If you visit Seolleung, make sure to visit this 'Coffee Bokkneon Jip' The impeccable coffee, music, and analog sensibility will welcome you.
