The sweltering heat might be behind us, but the humidity still makes you sweat, right? It's hard to be anywhere without air conditioning these days!

I'm planning to explore indoor date spots until the summer is truly over.

Today, I went on an indoor date to… Photoshot Pixx near Hongdae! I found it while walking along the food street from Hapjeong Station.

The Hapjeong-Sangsu area is full of amazing restaurants. It would be perfect to grab a delicious meal, enjoy your date, and then stop by Pixx to take some photos on your way back to the station.

After all, photos are what remain! Of course, we take pictures with our phones, but I don't end up looking at them as often. I tend to cherish the 인생네컷 (life four-cut) photos from self-photo studios like this one for a long time.

I especially appreciate places that are aesthetically pleasing, and this self-photo studio has such a beautiful, warm wood tone!

There are many 인생네컷 and Photoism studios around, but Photoshot Pixx feels more special.

They seem to offer a variety of photo styles! I decided to go inside. There was a photo booth on the first floor, but since it was already occupied, I only took a quick look. It was a wood-themed self-photo studio.

Being impatient, I started searching for another booth. Luckily, there were several booths in the basement! I followed the sign and headed downstairs.

I saw signs for "Triple Cube" and "Dark Wood Cube" – I was intrigued!

Just a heads up, there isn't a handrail on the right side when you go down the stairs, so be a little careful. The first booth I encountered was this one! The basement had mirrors and props, all neatly arranged. There was a good variety of sunglasses too! After some deliberation, I chose this pair. This particular space is called "Cube" and seems perfect for taking full-body shots. Usually, self-photo studios only capture your face and upper body, and I sometimes want to take different kinds of photos.

This felt completely different, which I loved!

My first pick was the Triple Cube! Even the posters on the first floor looked unique. I took a lot of photos in the Triple Cube.

There were other cubes as well! Next, I took photos in the Mini Cube. I wanted to try sitting down since I had already taken some standing shots. This is a picture of the interior, which is so clean! They seem to be truly passionate about wood.

They also have a collaboration with the fragrance brand VINT. If you're a fan, they offer discount coupons, so be sure to grab one!

Before heading home, I made sure I had all my belongings!

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.
