This urban hanok village was created in 1920s and 1930s as a common people
residential complex. Unlike the hanok villages of Bukchon or Seochon, the houses
here tend to be smaller and humbler. Today’s Ikseon-dong is a quirky collection
of cafes, restaurants, and shops, mostly with retro aesthetics, and its popularity
spread like a wildfire following the newtro revival among the youths.
