The Center of Every Delight for Korea's Elite Young Ladies
The University street, often called 'Front of Ewha Woman's Univ', which is situated in front of Ewha Woman's University, is known as women's street, where up to date fashion of clothes and that of hair style start. It is understood for the men as a street of remembrance because they have experience of first meeting and that of separating in a cafe or a saloon around this street.
'Front of Ewha Woman's University street' is localized on the left and right sides of the route in the direction of the university front gate. It's the short distance which is even less 1 km, that is, the distance between Ewha Woman's University front gate and metro station.
when one begins to enter the central street, one sees a variety of beauty saloon signboard. Most of stores are small and meticulous. And most of stores are footwear stores localized on the 1st floor and beauty saloons situated on 2nd and 3rd floor.
Most footwear stores in this street are so competitive that merchants exhibit peculiar style of footwear at the show window. Thus, it gives more pleasure to people looking at it. Besides, due to the sharp competition, the employees show kindness and render services to customers.
If someone wants to dress simply her hair, it is good to use the hairdressing sale ticket distributed on the street for the reduction of price.
If one finds the style of footwear for the full dress in central footwear shops, one finds the casual footwear such as sports shoes, in the shop situated in the small lane. If one enters the lane, it seems that one is really in the place for shopping. Merchants sell as main articles, clothes, hat, accessory and cosmetic in the shop situated in the lane.
Besides, there are 10 places of exotic cafe such as 'Engagement' where a diviner tell the destiny by physiognomy and birth day. One cannot find easily that kind of cafe on other streets in Seoul. If you want to have an experience of appreciating Korean women culture such as the senses of value in Korean society, propensity to consume and social condition, I recommend you to visit necessarily that street.
