Hello, I'm Damian.

Thank you for visiting my blog!

Before we get into the review, let me ask you a question:

Do you like cats?

To be honest, I prefer dogs over cats, but my younger sister's eyes light up whenever she sees a cat.

I visited Hongdae on a rare day off,

and decided to go on an outing with my younger sister.

We usually enjoy going to the zoo together,

so we visited an indoor animal park located in downtown Hongdae.

I was so satisfied after visiting with my sister,

that I wanted to share it with you all.

The place I visited is an indoor animal park that's gaining popularity as a date spot near Hongdae Entrance Station.

That place is none other than 'Jumin Center,' a fun thing to do in Hongdae near Hongdae Entrance Station.

It's a pet-friendly venue.

It's a 5-minute walk from Sangsu Station

and a 10-minute walk from Hongdae Entrance Station.

It's easy to find if you come out of Sangsu Station Exit 1 and go straight, and it's located near Hongik Playground.

It's also close to Gyeongui Line Forest Road,

making it a great place to visit as a date course.

The store's operating hours are different on weekdays and weekends.

Please note that it is open until 10 PM on weekends.

*4

To get to 'Jumin Center', a fun thing to do in Hongdae near Hongdae Entrance Station,

take the elevator to the 3rd floor.

Before entering, you must change into indoor shoes.

There was also a space to store belongings.

Also, the admission fee is 15,000 won per person,

and drinks can be ordered separately for 3,500 won per drink.

Since it's a store where you can use local consumption vouchers,

You can also pay with government subsidies.

Please note that two dogs in the store are greeting visitors.

*5

My sister loves animals,

and she wants to raise a cat, so

we visited the cat room first.

It's time to get closer to the cats.

Many of them were sleeping because it was a lazy afternoon.


The cats had different characteristics,

and I saw cats with familiar appearances.

Unlike dogs, cats rarely approach first,

so please keep in mind that you should not play pranks on them.

At 'Jumin Center', a fun thing to do in Hongdae near Hongdae Entrance Station,

If you are visiting with children, please remember to always pay attention to them to prevent accidents.

Next, I went to see one of the animals I want to raise the most:

Sugar gliders and geckos.

Unlike the cat room, you must ask the staff to enter the other animal rooms.

This is because they may escape from the room, and problems may occur if they come into contact with other animals.

Beautiful Scenery

The sugar gliders ran around with cute expressions on their faces,

and the geckos also felt lovely.

Amazing sight

Not only that, but I was also able to have a unique experience by touching and putting a snake around my neck.

In this way, 'Jumin Center', a fun thing to do in Hongdae near Hongdae Entrance Station, was a great place to enjoy a unique date.

*7

'Jumin Center', a fun thing to do in Hongdae near Hongdae Entrance Station, seems to be very helpful in stabilizing children's emotions.

Through interaction with animals, they can feel understanding and emotions about living things,

and naturally learn how to cherish them.

Even though I'm an adult, there were many animal characteristics that I didn't know,

so I couldn't help but think that I was glad I went to the indoor animal park.

Bright future

or want a space to go with your children, I highly recommend it.

Thank you for reading the review until the end.

This has been Damian.

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.
