당최 외관부터 안들어가고는 못배기는 곳이었다. 이런 정감가는 책방 정말 오랜만이었다. 내부는 더 매력적이었다. 출처 모를 다양한 분야의 책들로 가득했다. 📚 구경만으로 즐거웠고 나는 금세 구매할 마음과 함께 마음에 드는 책을 두권이나 골랐다. 동시에 나는 이곳에 또 오게될 것을 다짐했다. 책 판매도 가능하다고 하셨다. 앙.. 진짜.. 이런 책방의 주인분이라니 낭만 넘치는 멋진 노년기라고 생각이 들었다. 담에 올 때는 헌책을 가져와서 새로운 헌책으로 데려가야지! 너무 행복해..🐌

There's an owner who's been running this bookstore for 30 years, and you can really tell how much they care about it. They're also so kind, which I loved. You get a discount if you spend over 20,000 won. They didn't have many books for my major, but they did have books by Kyung Hee University professors, and my friend found a good selection and was happy with what they bought. The store is a little small, but if you look around, you can usually find at least one book you want.
