    Unfortunately Milky Bee has shutdown. When we tried to find it in May 2016 it had closed down due to the site being redeveloped.

    Hi,
    I was wondering do you guys know ‘Ice Factory’ popsicles? Do you know where can I buy them in Seoul?

    Thanks.

    Milky Bee still exists in Myeongdong. On Google maps it would be at the southeast corner of Myeongdong-gil and Myeongdong 10-gil (to the left of Citibank on the map). At the location there is a Olive Young (ground floor) and No. 1 Steakhouse at the northeast corner.
