Cafe culture in Korea *.*

Cafe culture in Korea.



If you visit Korea , I'm sure that you will be astonished by too many cafe .
There are as many as 3000 major brand coffee house in Korea !!(Caffe bene, Hollys coffee, Tom n Toms, The coffeebeans, Angelinus, Starbucks ...)
Plus, there are countless small cafe.

You may not be surprised but The south Korea's area is just half of California's.
It seems that someone crumpled tons of cafe and put into small area.

I don't know how to express this :(
I think Korea has the most numerous coffee house per area in the world and also has the most developed cafe culture.

-This is Caffe bene . It is ranked No.1 cafe in Korea for its number. It has about 660 franchises.



Korean people go to cafe just for drinking coffee.
We could rest, study, work and chat with other people for a long time in a coffee house.
Coffee house provides the place that people stay.
There are new word 'Coffice' and 'Cafebrary' that is conbined coffee+office and cafe+ library .
As a university student , I often stay at cafe to do my homework, chat with my friends.
Whenever I hang around with my friends and don't know where to go or what to do , we just go to a cafe.
You could use coffee house for your place as much as you want with small amount of money in Korea.




These days Korean people visit unusal cafe.
All of these cafe have their own special stuffs.
Recently I visited an special unique cafe . There are tons of memos in that cafe, so I wrote my memo and hung it with string.
The cafe has 100days mail box so that customers write postcard and put it into that box , then the cafe send their postcards 100 days later.

- this is my boyfriend's memo.

-This is the picture of my boyfriend . He was writing postcard to me waiting our drinks.
I'll be received 100 days later.
