Itaewon Books

이태원북스

Seoul's oldest English-language secondhand bookstore, trading since 1973.

Its founder had been hunting and selling English books since the 1960s before opening this Itaewon shop, now run by his daughter. The shelves range from fiction, poetry and philosophy to old magazines — a spread worthy of a big bookstore — and it is designated a Seoul Future Heritage.
