If you wanting to shop, this is the place to go. An absolutely massive shopping area with sooooo many stalls to shop in. One block has a certain group of clothes and the next has another. Prices are very competitive and there is a plethora of restaurants on another block to choose from. If you came to Korea to shop, this is the place to go. If you are looking for something specific it's probably best to ask directions as you could walk around all day and not see what you are looking for!
Very nice selection of various yarns and notions. The fabric stores seem to be open whenever they choose to be lol. On Saturday seems like most things wrap up by 4-5.
The 5th floor of the entire complex (buildings A,B,C etc) are occupied by stall holders catering for crafters, mostly beading and jewellery related. But do go if you are interested in bag making, accessories, knotting or such. I did not venture into the lover levels, but I know there are at least two for fabrics and one for upholstery and curtain materials. Notions, buttons, sewing paraphernalia…. It’s all there at such reasonable prices! Fabulous.
