Hi everyone! I'm Yawen from Taiwan. I'm currently planning a mini beauty getaway to Seoul, but honestly, I'm a bit unsure about which district to stay in. I've heard that Gangnam and Apgujeong have a lot of beauty-related shops and clinics, but I wanted to ask those who have been there: what do you think of these areas? Are they really as convenient as rumored?
Also, has anyone stayed there before? Would you recommend staying directly in Gangnam, or is it okay to stay elsewhere and take the subway? I'm looking for a place with convenient transportation, and cafes and restaurants nearby, so I can relax near the clinic during the day and have places to stroll in the evening. I'm still researching my budget, so I would be incredibly grateful if anyone could share some general information!
Can anyone share their favorite districts with me? Or are there any things I should pay attention to? Looking forward to everyone's advice!

To Yawen! I just went to Seoul last month too, and honestly, while Gangnam is definitely convenient, I thought it would be nice to travel a bit by subway. At night, there were so many cafes and restaurants, and it was fun to just walk around. Oh, but it's a good idea to plan your travel time with plenty of buffer!
Yewin! I've been thinking about traveling to Seoul too. The more I hear about how many beauty supply stores and self-care spots are in the area, the more I want to try it out 😊 I'm eagerly waiting for friends who have been there to share their experiences!
