I went there knowing that the atmosphere was nice, but when I walked in, it was full of interior design that made me feel excited for the first time in a long time... Quiet and delicious coffee, desserts, books, and even the cute resident dog, I didn't regret anything, so I want to stay longer next time! I like picture books, and there are many types to read, and they are all worth reading, so it feels like I had a meaningful time🥹 The owner was very kind, and I had a great time thanks to him.

I can't believe I finally found out about this place. It was such a great place that I want to come often in the future. The atmosphere was great and the owner was really kind!! It's a place where you lose track of time and become immersed in the book..🤍 And the puppy is so, so, so cute😻

It is a small and beautiful picture book cafe located a 2-minute walk from Exit 4 of Sangsu Station. There are also novels, comic books, poetry collections, essays, and psychology books. It's a warm, beautifully decorated place, and the delicious, special drinks and desserts are impressive. Above all, the cute picture library icon is Happy ^^ I was completely healed. If you like music and books, this is a place to visit at Sangsu Station. Highly recommended!!!

I found this picture library while searching for a picture bookstore 🎨 I needed healing these days as I have a lot on my mind, but the calm music, soft lighting, and the owner's warm hospitality melted my body and mind and healed me. When I need healing, I want to stop by again with my precious people 🩷 The space is warm like the owner 🍰 The cake is sweet 🐶 The puppy is really cute

It's cozy and a great place to read a book🩷 I think it will be a hangout-like bookstore that you'll want to visit anytime. It was perfect healing with a calming sound, a study full of books and picture books, a cozy and comfortable atmosphere, and magnolia flower tea and raspberry hwinangsi😊🩷

While looking for a place to go during the Lunar New Year holiday, I came across a place called Picture Library. It's quiet, cozy, and a great place to organize your thoughts. The dog Happy is so cute, and the owner is so kind! The atmosphere is so nice and the music is soothing, so it's great to read a book. If it were close to my house, I would visit often. I have to come here often for healing!

A place that embraces complete warmth even on a cold day between the alleys. A place where you can find rest and recovery, look around the space, and reflect on yourself. A place where you open a book and enter another world, and then slowly return to the romantic reality. It is a picture study like a painting.

I went to the Sangsu Station Picture Library, which has a quiet and calm atmosphere. There seems to be a variety of Hongdae Book Cafes, but this place had an overwhelmingly nice atmosphere, which I really liked. The owner was friendly and the dog friend was so cute. There were so many different books that I didn't notice time passing because I was looking at them all one by one! If you are looking for a Hongdae book cafe, I highly recommend Sangsu Picture Library! It’s a study book cafe, so it’s really cozy and has the best atmosphere..❣️

My second study with my girlfriend. This is the bookstore chosen by my girlfriend, who majored in library and information science. I felt more comfortable because I changed into slippers after entering. Because it was built by remodeling a house, it feels cozy like home, and although the attic space was not used, it creates a special feeling. We made a reservation, but there seem to be a few walk-in visitors. Thanks to the calm music, the overall atmosphere remains stable. For those who are very sensitive to concentration, it would be a good idea to bring earphones or a headset. What is most impressive is the cute dog (Happy) who was quietly guarding the space. Although he is a little shy, he is very gentle and calm, so it does not spoil the atmosphere. Snacks were also provided to add a little enjoyment. (Beware of being too cute) Recommended for those who want to enjoy the atmosphere of space with a book!!!

I was looking for a cafe near Sangsu and came here because it looked so cozy and nice. It ended up being even cozier and warmer than I expected, so I’m leaving feeling refreshed 🥹💕 I think it’d be great to come alone next time and focus here, so I’ll probably be back!! The dog is adorable too,, 🐶🐶
