What travelers are saying
- Cristina4 contributionsAn enormous bookshop, the Starfield Library, organized on two floors: the structure collects thousands of international books and magazines.
Enjoy the spectacular architectural details, fine floors, refined furnishings.
The welcoming and informal atmosphere is perfect for lulling visitors into their reading.
A temple of culture!Written August 28, 2023This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

This was so much fun and the lady was super kind and nice !
A great worthy stop at Seocho to be immersed in Korean culture 🥰Written November 14, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

I’m particularly impressed with the Airline check in available there though it’s restricted in terms of airlines served. The Underground Starfield Mall is impressive and offers a wide range of shopping opportunities. There’s a good library located within the Mall. The Bongeunsa Temple is located just opposite the Mall. There’s also the “Gangnam Style Hand” that offers a great photo opportunity. It’s definitely worth a visitWritten November 27, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

Do note that this is only a FREE 10-minute indoor experience, bring your own cameras/selfie sticks! There are about two backdrops (see my photo). Approach other tourists for help to take full-body shots for you and get to meet new people too!Written December 29, 2017This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC.

There is a cafeteria which serves inexpensive meals (around 4000-7000 won). The compound was also green and calming.Written November 6, 2019This review is the subjective opinion of a Tripadvisor member and not of Tripadvisor LLC. Tripadvisor performs checks on reviews.
