It's a cafe built on the first floor of an old house that gives the sense of being transported back to the 1970s and 1980s when one steps inside. The tables and chairs are made from wood that appears to have aged well, and in a corner, a display of retro-concept tea sets, glasses, and candle holders catches the eye.
The signature drinks are Esuppänner and La La Land. Esupänner is a coffee drink with espresso, roasted grain powder (glutinous rice, barley rice, etc.), and topped with cream. La La Land is a lemon and grapefruit tea inspired by the movie "La La Land (2016)," boasting mysterious colors of purple and yellow.

Located on the slopes of Namsan Mountain, the Cheongdo Hanok School is an educational center for carpenters who specialize in hanok (traditional Korean architecture).

Hanok buildings hold cultural and historical values and the school has been gaining in popularity not only among carpenters, but also those who are interested in enjoying and upholding Korea's proud architectural history. The entrance of the school is marked with a large traditional "Neowa" (a house roofed with thick, unfinished shingles of pine) that immediately catches the eye.

The school provides three types of courses. There is a basic carpentry course to teach people how to make wooden objects and structures, a course to nurture professional carpenters, and a course to teach carpenters how to build Hanok. The school’s hands-on programs offer visitors a chance to make a traditional Korean window and to saw and plane wood. There are cultural programs for children as well. Children, along with their parents, can make rice cake by pounding rice with a large hammer, bake sweet potatoes, or join a seminar on traditional Korean houses. The cultural programs change with each season.
