Checking out Cafes in Jeju, Jeju, South Korea

Koreans sure love cafes. Each day I was with my two Korean friends, we went to different cafes to hang out and enjoy the view while sipping a nice warm cup of coffee or a cold glass of fresh orange juice.

The first cafe my friends took me to was Cafe Bomnal, a coffee shop by the sea that they said was famous because it was where the Korean drama series "Warm and Cozy" was shot. Cafe Bomnal has four resident corgis and many interesting spots and details to admire and take photos of. The cafe overlooks the sea with sitting areas inside (to take shelter in on cold days) and outside (to enjoy the breeze on warm days).

Directions by bus: From Jeju Intercity Bus Terminal, take bus 202 to 한담동 Handamdong bus stop (50 minutes) and walk about 5 minutes to Cafe Bomnal.

We also had a look-see at Cafe Aewol Monsant, another cafe just a few steps from Cafe Bomnal. The dining area is surrounded by glass for an unobstructed view of the sea. It was full when we visited, with most of the cafe goers staying inside to keep warm that cold spring day. ...... (follow the instructions below for accessing the rest of this article).
