Compiled from 5 blog posts read in fullSources →
A black-and-pink, gyaru-styled cafe on the third floor of 100-1 Yeonmujang-gil in Seongsu-dong, where most guests come to take photos. Ades are 12,000 won and frappés 13,000 won; the Hello Kitty tiramisu was listed at 10,500 won in July 2026 and 11,000 won in September. The menu is read off a QR code, and one post says it turns into a bar menu after 5 pm. We read 11 posts dated January 2025 to September 2026. Five are about this place, all actual visits posted between July and September 2026. The other six were picked up because of song titles or the phrase 'super shy'.

What sets it apart
- Each group can stay for up to 90 minutes. Three posts mention the limit; one tells readers to take their photos quickly, and another wanted to stay longer on the big sofa but couldn't.
- Two posts say they waited. One went on a Tuesday afternoon, waited about an hour, and had to stand outside in heat above 30°C. Another didn't know there would be a wait, ended up queuing at the door, and recommends joining the CatchTable waitlist ahead of time. A third arrived right at opening and found the place empty apart from them.
- One post says there is no indoor waiting area, which makes summer waits hard.
- Two posts found the drinks pricey. One said a 12,000-won drink wasn't worth it and to think of it as paying for the seat; the other said prices run a little above an ordinary cafe.
2 more
- It isn't a quiet place. One post says people at nearly every table were shooting photos or video, many with flash, and suggests choosing your time if you want a calm conversation.
- One post says you order from staff rather than a kiosk, and read the menu via a QR code.

Where it is
We could not find this shop’s own listing on Naver Map, so the link searches for its Korean name around this spot instead.
Getting inside
The address says third floor, but no post describes the floor or how they got up there; one only remarks on the decorated stairway.
We don't know whether there is an elevator, a step at the entrance, or wheelchair or stroller access. That doesn't mean there isn't any — nobody wrote about it.
Several posts mention the restroom as a photo spot, and one says the next person knocked on the door while she was inside. Nobody says whether it is inside the cafe or split by gender.
No one mentioned: Second floor · In a basement · Lift to the floor · Ramp at the door · Step at the entrance · Step-free access · Toilet inside · Accessible toilet · Separate restrooms. That is not the same as there being none — it means we could not confirm it. Worth calling ahead, and do tell us: we will put it here.

What we do not know
- 'Nine minutes on foot from Seongsu Station exit 3' is copied from a listing in one post; nobody describes the walk themselves. One post says you have to turn once off the side street, and another visitor came by taxi.
- The only opening hours we have are 'daily 12:00–23:00', copied from a listing in one post. We don't know about closing days. The same post says the cafe menu runs until 5 pm and the bar menu takes over after that.
- The tiramisu was 10,500 won in a July 2026 visit and 11,000 won in a September post. With one post each, we can't tell whether the price went up.
- The phone number 0507-1422-9100 appears only in a copied listing in one post. No one booked by phone; one post says you get in line through the CatchTable waitlist.
