Myeong-dong is
Seoul’s shopping mecca and is a must-see for tourists, but it is not just a
shopping destination; Myeong-dong is also a hub of commerce, banking and
culture with a daytime population of 1.5-2 million. For shoppers there is a
mixture of street stalls and retail outlets selling everything from high
fashion to casual attire, as well as many Korean cosmetics stores offering
high-quality products at competitive prices.
Myeong-dong is very popular with international visitors and
fills with Japanese and Chinese tourists during the holiday period known as
“Golden Week” which takes place in spring and is called golden week due to the
week-long holiday period that takes place in Japan and China. Part of
Myeong-dong’s popularity stems from relatively affordable prices here,
especially compared to the other shopping meccas of Apgujeong-dong and
Cheongdam-dong.
