Night Shopping in Dongdaemun

1/22/2014

There are some things that one needs to experience in life.
Night shopping in Dongdaemun is one of them.
Suck it up, stay up late and hit the roads of Dongdaemun at 11PM.
I promise you will see things that will make you shake your head in confusion.
For example, this guy lounging in the street.
Picture
Packages, packages and more packages.
People shop, dump their stuff on the street and go back for more.
Picture
It appears some 'package areas' have a system.
Picture
While others do not.
The crazy thing about all of this.
No one steals anything.
It is all safe just sitting there on the street.
Picture
How awesome is that?
Can you see my friends in the next picture?
Someone did some serious shopping.
Picture
While out night shopping you might see men's napping tights...
I should have bought some for Hubby...
Picture
You will be able to find hats galore...
Picture
You might even find a little ol' lady in a box.
Picture
Or a chair on the street in case you are feeling a bit tired....
Picture
And just in case you need it, a mobile stationary store.
Picture
Need your stuff delivered? 
No problem there are tons of deliver men waiting to be hired.
Picture
You will even find some tasty treats (and some not so tasty treats) on the streets of Dongademun!
Picture
2AM & we are finally DONE!
Picture
The yellow tents open around 10PM.
I think the malls around 10AM and close at 4AM.
Purse Haven opens at 1AM.
Most things stay open till 4AM.
To get there go to Dondaemun around the Milgore... you will see the yellow tents across the street.
Just explore! 
Don't be afraid to go in every building or down every alley.
There is no telling what you might find! 
Happy shopping!

Someday your children look back and remember what enriching childhood they had. You are world class parents. Wonderful.

    Hi, I'm Trish, the writer, creator and photographer of this blog.  I started this blog for 2 reasons, 1 - When I found out we were moving to Korea back in 2008 I was a little freaked out and started scouring the internet for information on Korea. At that time there wasn't much out there so I am doing my part in helping families across the world not be so freaked out when it comes time to move to Korea.  The 2nd reason I started this blog was to help stay connected to family members back in the states.  Today it is so much more that.
    I hope you enjoy our journey.

    Are you moving to Korea?  Do you have questions, concerns?  Are you freaking out?   Freak out no further -  click the button to ask a question.  I'll do my best to answer open and honestly.
    Moving to Korea?
