[3.2/5.0] Pascucci Yongsan Samgakji Branch Restroom (feat. Parking) in Korea

이미지
I visited the Pascucci Yongsan Samgakji branch.  The staff is friendly, and the coffee is delicious. Among coffee franchises, Pascucci has the best taste. The trays are also cute. It was even better when I went on a weekday afternoon. It's also nice that you get one hour of free parking when you drink coffee. If everything is good, there's one more thing: the restroom should be good. What about the Pascucci Yongsan Samgakji branch restroom? INFO Located outside the establishment Toilet paper available | Locked (key required) | Separate restrooms for men and women Atmosphere It's plain. Compared to the interior of Pascucci, it felt colder. It seems like the restroom is shared with the building. Accessibility It's far. You have to go out of the store, cross a mountain, and then cross the water to arrive. My leg was hurting, so I asked my companions to go instead. You have to carry a Tangguri doll with a keycard attached. Size A total of 7 people (5 toilets, 2 sinks) can u...

[2.8/5.0] Sang-gye 'Jay Hair' Restroom in Korea

이미지
  I visited Jay Hair in Sanggye. It's located on the second floor of a run-down building. When you open the door, you're greeted with a space that contrasts with the atmosphere of the building. It's cozy and warm, and especially when getting a haircut, it's a heavenly experience. Above all, their hairdressing skills are excellent. The couple who run the salon are both talented. Despite living far away, I make time to go because I'm always satisfied. It may be difficult to make a reservation, but I plan to continue going in the future. I'm getting a perm after a long time. I took off my coat and put on a gown, so let's go to the restroom. What about the Sanggye Jay Hair restroom? INFO Located outside the establishment Toilet paper available | Locked (password required) | Unisex Atmosphere It has a '1997 Classic Edition' interior. In 1997, there was the IMF crisis. Many companies went bankrupt, and the livelihoods of those who received salaries there b...

[3.7/5.0] '대학로' The Kitchen 750 Restroom in Korea

이미지
  I visited The Kitchen 750 on University Road. It wasn't my original plan to go there. I had another place to go by car, but suddenly my car broke down. I had to cancel my schedule, and since it was inconvenient to go due to parking issues, I ended up going to University Road. It's a bit too much information, isn't it? Too Much I, as they say. The price was not too expensive, and the taste was not too overwhelming, making it a perfect place. The pasta with a tomato-based sauce was better than the Bolognese. Let's talk about the restroom. What about The Kitchen 750 restroom? INFO Located inside the establishment Toilet paper available | Unisex Atmosphere It has a simple and economical vibe. Even though there were no standout features, the appropriate black accents gave it a clean feel. The oddly placed hat-shaped lights served as a quirky element in this 20% lacking restroom. Accessibility Looking next to the front desk, you can see the sign. It was easy to find. It was...

[1.1/5.0] Unnamed Terrible Restroom

이미지
I used to drink a lot in the past. Saying it like this makes it seem like a distant past, but it's not really. Recently, I've been focusing on recovering as my body feels uncomfortable. There are many days when I crave a drink, but I endure it. It's inevitable. Someday, I will be able to drink alcohol to my heart's content again. Then, I'll be able to visit more restrooms. I don't remember exactly when, but I remember a restroom I visited on a day when alcohol was flowing through my veins. I only have one photo from that time, so it's difficult to provide a detailed review, but even with that, there's much to learn. It was a one-stall restroom. There was no sink. When I opened the door, there was garbage piled on both sides of the toilet, and a sour and pungent smell pierced through my lungs. It felt like entering through the belly of a monster, squeezing through its organs. When I sat on the toilet and looked up, the angle in that photo was exactly what...

[3.7/5.0] Seongbukdong House, a Popular Handmade Noodle Restaurant - Restroom Review

이미지
  I visited Seongbukdong House, a restaurant known for its handmade noodles. The broth, which has a rich beef bone soup base like seolleongtang, is delicious. Whenever I crave for kalguksu (handmade noodles) and want to eat something hearty, I come here. ​ As time goes by, the broth seems to become lighter, but it still tastes great. The side dishes, such as kimchi and kkakdugi (cubed radish kimchi), are also delicious. ​ After enjoying the meal, let's check out the restroom. ​ ​ How is the restroom at Seongbukdong House? INFO Located on the 1st and 2nd floors of the establishment. Toilet paper available | Unlocked | Gender-neutral ​ ​ ​ Atmosphere The restroom has a homey feel to it. However, the black-painted door and shelves give it a more commercial vibe. I suspect that someone with a sense of aesthetics, either the owner's family or someone in the vicinity, painted it. ​ Accessibility Once you enter the restaurant, the restroom is visible right away, next to the cashier. I...

[4.4 Rating] Yongsan IPark Mall Living Tower 7th Floor Food Court Restroom in Korea

이미지
  I visited the restroom at the Yongsan IPark Mall Living Tower 7th floor food court (Food Cinema). After enjoying a delicious meal, it's time to check out the restroom. It's a delightful mixed noodle dish. The restroom at the Yongsan IPark Mall Living Tower 7th floor food court is: Atmosphere: The walls, doors, partitions, and vertical areas are all black. The ceiling, floor, and sinks have ivory tones for contrast. If other restrooms are like drawings on white paper, this restroom feels like it started on black paper. There are golden lights on the mirrors and toilet bowls. It gave me a dreamy feeling, as if I were the protagonist in a film while washing my hands or using the toilet. Recently, black-themed restrooms have been somewhat common, but by effectively using gold and black (those who went mad with black for sure), it felt fresh and unique. It was an impressive restroom. Accessibility: Finding the restroom in the complex and intricate 7th floor food court wasn...

[3.0 Rating] Banghak-dong VIPS Premier Restroom in Korea

이미지
  I visited VIPS in Banghak-dong in Korea Sigh... Beer and wine are free. I didn't know that because it has been years since I last came. I was frustrated because I can't drink alcohol now. I vented my anger by furiously peeling a shrimp with my hands. After a long time, I encountered a wave of crustaceans and received their autographs. Alright. It's time to use the restroom. How about the restroom at VIPS in Banghak-dong? Atmosphere: It's a restroom with a plain interior. But should I call that a flower... Well, there was a vase, creating a somewhat delicate atmosphere. Accessibility: It's like a magical corridor that can't be found even though it's clearly in the hallway. Difficult to locate, just like the way to Hogwarts. Size: Allows a total of 6 individuals to use it simultaneously. Average size. Cleanliness: No noticeable odor, but water accumulates in various places. Convenience: There's antibacterial soap and a separate heating device. T...

[3.6] Dobong-dong Indoor Sports Center Restroom in Korea

이미지
  I visited the Dobong-dong Indoor Sports Center in Korea. I heard that the indoor swimming pool is clean as it is relatively new. Although I didn't have the intention to use it, I was curious about how a clean indoor swimming pool feels like. Places with a lot of water require extra hygiene management, so restroom cleanliness is as important as the swimming pool. Ah, the restroom. I can tell by looking at the restroom. How about the restroom at Dobong-dong Indoor Sports Center? Accessibility: Located right in front of the elevator. Appropriate. Size: Accommodates two individuals in the men's restroom. There may be a wait during peak times when swimming lessons end. Cleanliness: Relatively clean. The floor was not damp, and there were no unpleasant odors. Some pieces of discarded tissue were visible. Atmosphere: A plain interior like a public restroom. Convenience: It has a touchless automatic door. Many people prefer not to touch restroom doors when leaving after washing...

[3.9] Restroom at CGV Yong-san Branch in Korea

이미지
  I visited CGV Yong-san in Korea. CGV Yongsan seems to have successfully incorporated the movie theme into its overall interior design. There are many promotional displays and photo spots for newly released films, making it a space with attractions beyond just movies. Recently, they have set up camping tables and played teaser videos of upcoming films on a large screen in the tent-like area. It gave a warm feeling and was enjoyable. However, I feel a bit awkward now because I didn't take any pictures of those fantastic sets. I got too excited and only took pictures of the restroom!! Let's talk about the restroom at CGV Yongsan. Atmosphere: The cinematic mood from outside the restroom continues inside, which was nice. The wooden accents on the door of the cubicles and mirror frames gave a classic feel. However, I felt the floor was a bit off. The design was somewhat ambiguous and the color itself felt dirty, like actual stains, instead of complementing the design. Accessi...
