Old Town (Gangbuk, "North of the River"): By and large, the hilly neighbourhoods here have retained an ‘old city’ charm and seem almost to be frozen in time. Bukchon Hanok Village near Samcheong-dong is the most popular of these neighbourhoods and a favoured location for shooting K dramas / movies. The shopping streets and outdoor markets north of the river really lend themselves to the old city charm. We recommend: Samcheong-dong, Hannam-dong, Yongsan, Seoul Forest (Seongsu-dong) New Town (Gangnam, "South of the River"): Newer southern landscape of Seoul, stretching chiefly from Gangnam Station to Samsung Station. Gangnam is the home of K-beauty, shopping, trendy nightlife and high-end restaurants. We recommend: Cheongdam-dong, Garosu-gil, Apgujeong Rodeo
