Hi everyone! So I'm finally booking a trip to Seoul for some treatments and I'm totally overthinking where to base myself lol. I keep hearing about Gangnam and Apgujeong being the hot spots for aesthetics, but honestly I'm not sure what the actual vibe difference is between them, or if there are other areas I should be looking at?

I'm planning to stay for maybe 10 days and want to do a few different things, so I'm wondering — where do you guys usually stay when you go for beauty treatments? Are the neighborhoods walkable? Is it annoying to get around between clinics? I'd love to hear what felt convenient for you.

Also curious if anyone has favorite areas for just hanging out between appointments — like good cafes, shopping, that kind of thing. I don't want to spend my whole trip in waiting rooms 😅 Any recommendations from people who've actually been there?
