I visited Berlin ten years ago, when I was passionate about pure art, because I heard it was home to many creative artists and had great techno music. Back then, information was hard to come by, so I didn't know what to expect. But this trip revealed a wealth of hidden charms. Berlin is a city unpolished yet beautiful with a rough, free spirit. I'm sharing seven Berlin design spots that impressed me during this trip. Bauhaus Shop, Knesebeckstraße 1, 10623. A legend of industrial design that continues […]

A cocktail that splendidly swirls the tongue even alone, a surprising style that reminds me of the hands of the people who make the alcohol […]

From the entrance to the food, it seems that those who are serious about taste can’t help but taste everything they touch. Many places reinterpret common menus in their own way or introduce creative new recipes, making weekend mealtimes something to look forward to. Sunny days, rainy days, and the atmosphere […]
My husband and I change our residences every two years because we want to experience the diverse and exciting world. There's a huge difference between passing through and actually living there. Just having a fixed end has changed the density of time. Now, it feels more like a long journey than living in a neighborhood. Until last week, we lived in Yeonnam-dong. It felt strange to live with a partner in a place I'd lived alone in college. I'd taken it for granted, but I hadn't noticed it before. […]
