Jongno, one of Seoul's major bustling districts, is home to numerous tall office buildings and headquarters of various large corporations, resulting in a high volume of office workers in the area.

In Jongno, there is a traditional Korean barbecue restaurant transformed from an old inn with a hanok interior. If you visit, it is recommended to dine at an outdoor table during sunset. The experience of grilling meat against the backdrop of a vividly colored sky and the serene atmosphere of the hanok is truly special, even in Seoul.

A variety of dishes are available, including gochujang marinated pork belly, minari jeon (minari pancakes), and jjagich (a mix of jjapagetti, eggs, and cheese). It is highly recommended to order the green onion kimchi, as it adds a savory flavor to the meat. Since this is a popular restaurant, it's advisable to check the wait time and make a reservation before visiting.

Gasan Digital Complex has a higher foot traffic than Gangnam Station during rush hours. Although it is home to numerous IT and content companies, making it one of the busiest areas for office workers in the country, there is a lack of green spaces for workers to take strolls. In response to this, a complex cultural space called Public Gasan has been established in Gasan.

Public Gasan features an innovative design that transforms the central space into a park, with 42% of the site area dedicated to greenery, creating a new healing space for office workers in Gasan.

Composed of buildings A through F, Public Gasan houses resident companies, dormitory-style officetels, and commercial facilities, allowing everything from lunch and coffee to exhibitions and strolls to take place in one convenient location, making it the perfect space for office workers.

There is a cafe in Digital Media City, a hub for IT companies and broadcasting stations, that offers spaces for laptop work as well as private rooms for quiet conversations. Located about a five-minute walk from DMC Station, the cafe features large windows on the second floor that offer a view of the trees outside. With a variety of seating options, from floor seating to tables for six, the cafe is filled with office workers during weekday lunch hours.

Unlike regular cafes, this place offers interactive content for guests to participate in. On the survey board, customers can write down their recommended music they would like to hear at the cafe. While waiting to pick up their coffee orders, they can also enjoy voting on content displayed on the boards, adding an element of fun.

If you're looking to enjoy a little healing time amidst the dense office buildings, this cafe is highly recommended.
