Hip Restaurant Tour of Euljiro Printing Alley _ Seoul Solo Travel

Euljiro Printing Alley, which has 600 years of history, is an alley where people and machines alternately hear each other through narrow alleys. Printing masters have been silently watching this alley for a long time. Old women who have kept this alley for decades also add value of time to it. I went to Euljiro Printing Alley where owners who live in the alley and run shoe stores, restaurants, and coffee shops with their own philosophies and various people work together. Euljiro Printing Alley started with the Jujaso Government Office, which used to cast type and print books during the Joseon Dynasty. During the Japanese occupation in 1910, movie theaters such as Gyeongseong Theater and Jungang Hall were opened in Euljiro, and printing shops that took pictures of film leaflets continued to operate. In the 1980s, the number of campaign prints surged, enjoying the heyday of printing alley. As many things became digital, the stores that guarded the printing alley disappeared one by one and changed, but this alley is still protected by printing craftsmen with a keen sense. In addition, you can see the warmth of analog and the value of the past in the old houses around you who have shared history. Filmed: Friday, February 23, 2024, 6:50PM KST Weather: Cloudy ?
