I recently visited Sinheung Market in Haebangchon, which is currently one of the trendiest places on social media!

Wow, a place like this in Seoul? As someone not from the city, my eyes were wide with amazement!

Precious memories

The vibe of Sinheung Market is authentic...

Who would have thought they could remodel an old market into such a wonderful space?

The harmony of the arcade and red brick buildings is great.

The atmosphere is on another level, making it a great date spot for couples and a perfect place to refresh your mood!

The alleys are narrow, but the interior design is so hip...

I just love it!

Impressive sight

It feels like a European outdoor cafe! I can't believe there's a place like this in Seoul.

I think it will be one of the hottest spots for the next few years.

No wonder it's swarming with people on weekends!

Among the many restaurants, I visited 'Neighbors'!

Yomyom unni had been there before and guided us there, saying the view from the second floor was amazing.

Tada! ✨

The ambiance is insane... I'm feeling really high!

I need to come to places like this once in a while...

Amazing sight

Since I'm planning to drink a bit today, 'Party Smart' is a must!

Kudos to Yomyom unni for bringing it! (She knows what's up~)

I think 'Party Smart' is the best hangover cure!

(Important note!)

Before ordering food, I'll start by washing away the heat with a beer~

Magpie craft beer Pilsner is delicious 9,000 KRW.

The cute plate is also good!

Dreamlike moment

Fish and chips 23,000 KRW

The smashed peas are very tasty.

And fried fish and potatoes are always a winning combination!

Chicken 28,000 KRW

They told us to squeeze the burnt lemon on it, and wow... I want to try this at home.

The acidity really enhances the flavor!

Peaceful scenery

I also drank wine~

And champagne, haha~

The jamón was so-so.

The atmosphere is so good that I want to visit Sinheung Market again...

But I'll avoid the weekends!

Happy time

Everyone was taking pictures in front of this spot, so I took one too~

It would be nice to visit when it's a little less hot,

I recommend visiting for a change of pace!

Happy time Precious memories Dreamlike moment Hopeful tomorrow Special moment Valuable experience Precious memories Nice picture Dreamlike moment Mysterious appearance Precious memories Beautiful landscape Bright future Warm memories Beautiful landscape Hopeful tomorrow Happy time

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.
