When I visited, there were beautiful blooming hydrangeas at the entrance — not sure if they’re still there, but it was such a lovely sight!

I also spotted one of my favorite flowers — allium — sitting pretty on top of the cake fridge. Love those little details ????

We took our buzzer and grabbed a seat on the second floor.
There was a large group on the first floor, so we went upstairs — it was very spacious and quiet~

Even on the stairway going up, there were beautiful flower pots and blooming plants ^^




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_4649.jpg



I’m really glad we decided to visit Collin near Hongdae Station~
I always thought “I should stop by sometime” whenever I passed by, and once I entered, it was so lovely ^^




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_4899.jpg



Collin is a flower café filled with plants and flowers, so the entire atmosphere was amazing~




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_5156.jpg



There are separate restrooms for men and women on the second floor.

We chose a table with a vase of beautiful hydrangeas.




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_5404.jpg



When our drinks were ready, we went downstairs to pick them up.
The Ice Cream Latte had actual ice cream on top — so sweet and delicious~




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_5658.jpg



They also sell Cotton Candy Latte, which is one of Collin’s signature drinks.
You can add cotton candy on top of any iced drink for an extra 2,000 KRW.

And right now, they’re also selling Iced Persimmon Bingsu!




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_5883.jpg



There are also tables on the second-floor terrace, but it was too hot, so we decided to sit inside haha.




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_6142.jpg



The tables are large, and there are spaces for groups — no wonder there were many large parties visiting~




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_6522.jpg



Just half a flight of stairs up from the second floor, there’s a separate space, too.

If you want a more private setting, I think that area would be perfect.

It honestly felt like being in a greenhouse.




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508637_6739.jpg



The glass windows let in lots of light with no barriers, so it had a great view —
though it was a little warm, it was definitely a photo zone for taking great pictures~^^




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508641_9778.jpg



The overall vibe of Collin is antique and cozy, and the flowers on every table make it a feel-good kind of café~




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508642_0028.jpg



At the entrance on the first floor, there’s also a flower fridge selling fresh flowers and even potted cacti!




90838b6038423a5a2650a522daa25f5b_1752508642_0287.jpg



Next time I visit Collin near Hongdae Station,
I’m curious to see what beautiful flowers will be on the tables ????


I’m definitely going back next time I’m in Hongdae~~~
Thanks to my sister for taking me to such a pretty café ????

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
