Wall of Love Ssamziegil Insadong Seoul South Korea
Tuesday, April 21, 2015
ChaMike writes undying love at the Wall of Love Ssamziegil Insadong.
After playing dress up as Korean locals in Bukchon Hanok Village Mike and I walked our way to Insadong. I've been to Insadong before but like in Gyeongbokgung Palace I never had the time to appreciate the place. I was also curious with the Wall of Love that is quite famous for couples here.
Insadong is an art and antique district that focuses on Korean crafts, galleries, traditional restaurants, tea houses and cafes. You can also spot different souvenir items, knickknacks and trinkets you can take home.
How to go to Insadong
Anguk Station (Seoul Subway Line 3) exit #6. Because we were just in Bukchon, ChaMike walked from exit 2 to exit 6 and then followed the crowd going to a bustling street that is Insadong.

More personalized couples items were sold at the building like this personalized desk clock where you can put a photo of you and your partner (cheesy ba kamo?) Price ranges depending on the size. Now I regret that I did not buy one! boo. I should have bought one and put the best Seoul-mate photo of ChaMike. Oh well. There are also other couples items that we saw like a personalized couples ring where you can put messages in the ring and wooden sculptured photo for souvenir.

But for an ultimate- major kakesohan, Ssamziegil has what they call Wall of Love where you and your partner can confess your undying love through a love message tag and post it on the wall in a little alley at the roof top of the building.

And of course I talked Mike into doing it. Mike wasn't as excited as I am (completely understandable - hahaha) so I was the one who bought the message tag for 5,000 won (P200).

| back part- if Mike's my strength, I am his weakness (kainis noh?) |
 |
| Thinking of where to put it |
 |
| We found a spot! |
 |
| Tadah! Message tag on :) |
 |
| Our message tag is in the middle of the long alley (left side if coming from the entrance) in case I come back |
After posting the ChaMike message tag we decided to leave Insadong and off we went back to Myeongdong to go to a Dog Cafe (this time it was Mike's request)
