Let alone the smell of books, the atmosphere that libraries and book cafes provide is indeed unique, and definitely something that could spice up your reading experience. Hf will now introduce some Indie bookshops in Seoul that are popular but not widely-known.

虽然数码化的产物占据我们大部份的生活,但相信有不少人仍然喜欢把纸本捧在手上的那份独特感。在图书馆内看书是有一种不能被电脑或kindle所能取代的感觉。除了书本所发出的书卷气味外,图书馆和Book Café的氛围也是独一无二的。现在就让Hf为你介绍在首尔的一些很受欢迎却不是广为人知的独立书店,下次到首尔旅遊又有新地方可去了!

The biggest event is a flea market called “Unlimited Edition” which is held once a year and goes on for two days. In this festival, independent books, journals, CDs and stationary products are displayed and can be bought on site. The market is open for interaction, though. Buyers can get to interview independent artists. Moreover, the bookshop itself is a huge attraction for many; you can enjoy ad-hoc events such as lectures, small staged performances, talk shows, documentary film sessions with cats.

全年最大的活动就是一年两天的「Unlimited Edition」跳蚤市集,你可以在市集中看到独立的书本、杂誌、CD或文具,看到喜欢後就可以到网站上购买。市集的目的是让不同人士进行交流,买家可以藉此跟艺术家交谈。再者,书店本身就已经有很多吸引人的地方,例如你可以参与很多特设的活动,如讲座、小型舞台表演、脱口秀,还可以和店内的猫猫一起观看不同的记录片。
