For those that grew up in Korea anytime from 1960 to 1990, you can’t help but have a love and hate relationship with this store located right next to the main Ssamzigil entrance. A nostalgia shop of sorts, you can find all types of fun things to buy–cut-out paper dolls, candy and gum from the 1980s as well as other toys from that era. It’s not as cheap as the corner store that many of us remember, but that’s if you’re thinking 1960s prices. This is a unique shop in Seoul for those that want to buy things you can only buy in Korea.
