Looking for a unique experience in Seoul? Let me, Wani, your travel influencer, introduce you to Eunpyeong Hanok Village and the stunning cafe, 1 In 1 Jan.

While Jeonju might be the first Hanok Village that comes to mind, Eunpyeong Hanok Village in Seoul offers easy access from the metropolitan area.

Escape the city bustle and discover the charm of Eunpyeong Hanok Village, coupled with breathtaking Bukhansan Mountain views at 1 In 1 Jan cafe.

Eunpyeong Hanok Village, located in Jingwan-dong, Eunpyeong-gu, is a modern hanok village offering picturesque views of Bukhansan Mountain. It's a serene escape within the city.

Peaceful scene

You'll be surprised to find such natural beauty within Seoul. The charming alleys and the warmth of everyday life create a healing atmosphere simply by walking around.

Happy time

At the tail end of summer, crape myrtle and trumpet creeper blossoms still add vibrancy to the alleys, creating photo opportunities against the traditional walls.

Precious memory

The village is well-planned, offering picture-perfect compositions from every angle. With Bukhansan Mountain as a backdrop, it feels even more special.

Fantastic scene

The beautiful weather enhanced the view, with the eaves of the hanoks seeming to touch the clear autumn sky.

Valuable experience

Unlike typical one-story hanoks, many here have two stories, adding to their elegance. Besides residential homes, you'll find cafes, art galleries, and event spaces, making exploration even more enjoyable.

Precious memory

Eunpyeong Hanok Village isn't very large, making it perfect for a quick stroll, followed by a relaxing break at a cafe or restaurant.

Warm memory

I had hoped to visit Jingwansa Temple, located near Eunpyeong Hanok Village, but time didn't allow. I'll be sure to go next time.

Special moment

Thanks to K-culture's popularity, I saw many foreigners dressed in beautiful hanboks, taking photos throughout the village.

Splendid scene

Remember to be respectful as people live here. Capture your own memorable photos and enjoy the incredible natural beauty with views of Bukhansan Mountain.

Interesting image

While Starbucks is another popular spot for Bukhansan views, I decided to visit 1 In 1 Jan cafe, which is located close to the Hanok Village.

Amazing sight

1 In 1 Jan is the cafe, while 1 In 1 Sang is the restaurant. Both share the same building.

Bright future

The cafe, 1 In 1 Jan, occupies the 1st and 2nd floors, with a no-kids zone on the 3rd floor. The restaurant, 1 In 1 Sang, is located on the 4th and 5th floors, and a rooftop garden on the 6th floor.

Fantastic scene

Although it's a 5-story building, the cafe space itself isn't very large, so expect a wait during weekends.

Fantastic scene

I originally wanted to sit on the 2nd floor, but it was full. I settled for a spot on the 1st floor and went to explore the 6th-floor rooftop garden.

Warm memory

The view of the Hanok Village and Bukhansan Mountain from the top floor was truly breathtaking. I saw groups of foreigners in hanboks busily taking photos, and I understood in that moment how beautiful these traditional houses must look to them.

Attractive photo

There are only about 4 tables on the rooftop garden. It was a bit too hot that day, so I plan to return in the fall.

Dreamlike moment

I can only imagine how beautiful it will be when the Bukhansan foliage turns colors. I'm seriously considering visiting again soon!

Hopeful tomorrow

The view from the 2nd-floor tables is also lovely, and I was hoping for a seat to open up, but it was a weekend, so I was grateful for the 1st-floor spot.

Warm memory

I also saw the 1 In 1 Sang restaurant on the 3rd floor as I was coming down. There are only a few tables, and people were waiting in line.

Dreamlike moment

1 In 1 Jan offers roasting coffee using beans from Fritz Coffee Company. Their signature drinks are Einspänner, Brown Flat, and Almond Cream Latte. They also have a variety of non-coffee options, ades, and teas, along with traditional desserts like sweet red bean rice cakes, banana rice cakes, and tricolored dumplings – perfect with tea.

Interesting image

A small traditional tray is placed on top of the regular table, where you can enjoy your drinks and desserts.

Happy time

Since it's a hanok village cafe, I ordered an Omija (magnolia berry) ade for a refreshing drink.

Dreamlike moment

Eunpyeong Hanok Village offers a different atmosphere from Bukchon Hanok Village, with its Bukhansan views and elegantly constructed two-story hanoks.

Touching scene

Jingwansa Temple and Jingwansa Valley are nearby and worth a visit. 1 In 1 Jan cafe, with its artistic views of Bukhansan Mountain, certainly lives up to its reputation.

Special moment

How about a hanok village stroll and cafe visit this fall?

Peaceful scene

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.
