Whenever we consider South Korea, 3 things likely ring a bell: cosmetics, Television programs, and food. Be that as it may, there is something else to find out about the rich culture of this spot. So many, that it generally has an amazement up its sleeves that leaves us with our mouths open, needing to take a non-stop trip there to experience those encounters face to face.

2D café

The artistic, monochrome design was inspired by Korea’s hit TV show, W by Lee Jong-suk and Han Hyo-joo, in which the characters clash between “two worlds”—the real world and a fantasy world inside a webtoon. The design of Cafe Yeonnam-dong 239-20 creates a 2D optical illusion, which makes customers feel as though they’ve crossed dimensions into a comic book illustration. When visitors step through the door, they’re greeted with black and white comic strip furniture, walls, and floors. Even the mugs, dishes, and cutlery look like flat line drawings.

Cat crossing signage I'm Seoul

Cat crossing signage in Seoul is another unique thing that you would find in Korea. This can be one thing that you would generally not find in any other country, but I'm still not quite sure how often would you find cat crossing at the cat crossing signal. But still interesting isn't it?

 ’’If you see random objects lined up outside a train station, don’t kick them away.’’

Now this is another rule in Korea that is quite normal. If you see objects lined up outside a train station you would not want to kick it. That generally means that the person to whom the objects belongs, is in the queue even though he is not present and nobody can break into the line.

"South Korea puts traffic lights on the ground so that people who are looking at their phones can still see the light.”

Now this is really considerate of the Korean government, South Korea puts traffic lights on the ground so that people who are looking at their phones can still see the lights and don’t ignore them in order to reduce accidents.

“This building has ’F’ for the fourth floor instead of the number 4, as 4 is considered bad luck.”

Now this is something superstitious, apparently Korea considers '4' as a unlucky number. So they try to avoid it any point, at that level, that Korea doesn't even use '4' number to indicate 4 floor and uses 'F' as a alphabet instead.

 “My sausage here in Korea comes with pictures and the words ’thank you,’ ’cheer up,’ and ’delicious, right?’ written on it.”

Isn't Korea the sweetest country? If you still think not, have a look at this one. Korea serves sausage with pictures and the words states 'thank you', 'cheer up' and 'delicious' that's really pleasant and subtle from South Korea.
