The nation\u2019s capital city is a bright example of vibrant economy with fast-paced growth, ranking steadily high among the most liveable cities in the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The imposing Han River connects the two halves of Seoul: at its north, Gangbuk-gu (\u2018gu\u2019 meaning district), still drenched in old-times vibes, with its traditional houses and open markets; and at its southern side, the world-renowned, luxurious and modern Gangnam-gu district. Vibrating with restless energy all day long, Seoul is also the perfect place to deep dive into local flavour: Korean food is a guaranteed memorable experience, ranging from traditional barbecue culture to cold noodles, touching on iconic sweets and street treats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>And when it comes to mixology, Seoul has indeed risen among the top cocktail destinations in the world, showcasing exquisite technique paired with a bustling going-out culture and extraordinary venues, be they strikingly big bars or tiny, underground spots hidden to the general crowd\u2019s eyes. Campari Academy just launched in Seoul, so we roamed around the city with an exceptional guide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">B<strong>ig picture<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"783\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-1024x783.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1743\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-1024x783.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-300x229.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-768x587.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-1536x1175.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/Laki-Yoo-headshot-2048x1567.jpg 2048w\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Laki Yoo<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>Laki Yoo is one of the most pioneering and respected bar personalities in South Korea. Having helped to establish Seoul\u2019s cocktail reputation, these days he\u2019s staying sharp with his bar Keepers&#8217; in Gangnam-gu. A delegate for <a href=\"https:\/\/iba-world.com\/south-korea\/\"><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/iba-world.com\/south-korea\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Korea Bartender Guild<\/a>, Yoo is also the mind behind <a href=\"http:\/\/www.barmade.co.kr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Barmade<\/a>, the best-selling bar equipment shop in the country, and runs the spirits import establishment Plus One Group. He\u2019s an all-around drinks advocate, devoting his career to represent Korea on the international drinks stage, and is considered to be one of the undisputed mentors of the bartending community. You couldn\u2019t ask for a better guide to understand what you need to know before arriving in Seoul for a taste of true, local offerings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cSince a license is not required to open a bar in Korea, it is really easy to start your own business,\u201d Yoo tells us. This means anyone can launch a venue, and what\u2019s more, there\u2019s no mandatory closing time, so whether they\u2019re a bar or a restaurant, they can choose their own closing time. You can, therefore, find many 24\/7 parlours \u2013 \u201cmaybe too many in my opinion\u2026,\u201d laments Yoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Seoul\u2019s nightlife spans all over the city, so whatever your mood is, you\u2019ll be able to find a spot accordingly, whether you are up for five-star hotel bars, secluded and intimate neighbourhood spots, or thumping high-volume settings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The drinks<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1744\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_722049718-2048x1365.jpg 2048w\" \/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n<p>For an incomparable local tasting experience, \u2018sool\u2019is the keyword to know. It indicates a whole array of Korean alcoholic drinks, a few of them still true to what you could find more than a millennium ago. There is one for every drinker\u2019s palate, but none more beloved than soju: \u201cSoju is definitely the main beverage attraction,\u201d Yoo explains. \u201cBeing the number-one consumed beverage in the country, it is available everywhere, and we have so many varieties of it, ranging from traditional to fermented makgeolli and cheongju; once you get here you can\u2019t leave without trying somaek [a cocktail mixing soju and beer]<em>, <\/em>the soju bomb!\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It is quite common to pair local beverages with the extraordinary Korean-typical food: this is known as \u2018anju\u2019. \u201cItis our specific word to indicate having some food while drinking: one sip and one bite,\u201d explains Yoo. \u201cI suggest you check out some delicious pairings: Korean pork barbecue with traditional soju; paejon [shallot fritter] with makgeolli, and sashimi with any traditional beverage.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While the smell of street food kiosks fills your lungs, you can get lost among majestic main roads and tiny alleys, all of them crowded with quality bars to visit and an incredible atmosphere: try out the picturesque Seochon (also known as West Village as it is west of Gyeongbok Palace), or drive down to the opposite end of the river to roam the narrow streets of Apgujeong-dong, where buzzing watering holes can be found in basements. \u201cDrinking and bar hopping are experiences that cannot be missed here,\u201d Yoo says, although at the other end of the spectrum, he also points out that the hilly region that includes the Bukhansan National Park is quite the setting for quiet walks and hikes too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The food<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"683\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1748\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-1024x683.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-768x513.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-1536x1025.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/shutterstock_720467104-1-2048x1367.jpg 2048w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Korean food is a huge part of local going-out culture, Laki says: \u201cDon\u2019t miss the superior quality of our seafood, and indulge on our \u2018bunsik\u2019, traditional small bites such as tempura, odeng and \u2018tteokbokki\u2019[fermented rice cakes].\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Food in Seoul is easily accessible pretty much anywhere, and iconic fermented foods such as kimchi, while popular everywhere in the world, are rarely comparable to the ones one can find here. \u201cThey are among the things I miss the most when I\u2019m away,\u201d says Yoo.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Once palate and eyes are satisfied, a visiting bartender cannot miss the opportunity to hit the local markets, such as the traditional Gwangjang in Jongno-gu, or the Namdaemun Market in Namchang-dong, where you can find glassware, kitchen utensils and local ingredients. &#8220;Seoul accounts for 20 million citizens, including suburbs and nearby cities in the metropolitan area,&#8221; explains Yoo, \u201cand it\u2019s extremely well organised when it comes to supplies or groceries. A few delivery apps allow you to have what you want, as little as one single orange, at your door within 20 minutes. So, for you to properly grasp our ingredients, our culture, the essence of our daily trade, a visit to a market is definitely necessary.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-gallery has-nested-images columns-default is-cropped wp-block-gallery-1 is-layout-flex wp-block-gallery-is-layout-flex\">\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1761\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1761\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8555-scaled.jpg 1920w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1766\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1766\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-1536x2048.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/IMG_8577-4-scaled.jpg 1920w\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"768\" height=\"1024\" data-id=\"1760\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 480px) 100vw, (max-width: 768px) 100vw, (max-width: 1024px) 90vw, (max-width: 1440px) 80vw, 700px\" src=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4-768x1024.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1760\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4-768x1024.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4-1152x1536.jpg 1152w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4-375x500.jpg 375w, https:\/\/www.campariacademy.com\/de-de\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/13\/2023\/03\/4e504c16-66d9-462c-a3a7-59b81413bdca-4.jpg 1536w\" \/><\/figure>\n<figcaption class=\"blocks-gallery-caption wp-element-caption\">Exploring Gwangjang Market and the surrounding area<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-css-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The big list<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-9d6595d7 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>BARS<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Pine&amp;Co<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Zest<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Le Chamber<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alice<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mixology<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>NIGHTCLUBS\/LATE-NIGHT<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Times<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Orgasm Valley<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Vita<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Hyper Seoul<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Bellevue Lounge<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<p><strong>RESTAURANTS &amp;
