• The ramen-shop cluster in the side streets of Hongdae and Yeonnam-dong
• Cafés and snack spots lining the Gyeongui Line Forest Park in Yeonnam-dong

Tip

• Exit 9 leads to the main walking street and busking zones; Exit 3 leads the other way to Yeonnam-dong and the forest trail.
• People live right beside the forest trail, so keep picnics quiet at night. The park has been a designated no-drinking-nuisance zone since 2018, and rowdy drinking can be fined.
