Life in Korea VLOG 🌼 Incheon's Oldest Neighborhood | cafes, k-drama locations, and history

Hi guys! Last week I was lucky enough to tour a neighborhood in Incheon that has a ton of history. I was invited by Incheon Tourism Organization to learn about Gaehangro - a neighborhood that was really trendy in the 60s/70s and is being revived in the 2020s! There are people who have owned shops there as far back as the 50s but there are also brand new bars and restaurants opening in the old abandoned buildings, making it a really vibrant community. It's easily accessible by Seoul subway and I highly recommend this for a day trip. I'll definitely be back :) Sending love always~

Mentioned:
Gaehangro Beer - available all over Gaehangro!

OMG! This "hospital" Café is in For Life MV by Exo.... They have such good and beautiful photos and takes in there! My exol heart is just...

As expected, you did a great job of capturing the essence of the area.

You know what, I made up my mind. Next Korea trip (whenever that is, looking at the current situation) will be to explore parts of Korea that's not touristy at all. These neighbourhoods are so quaint, charming, old school, authentic. I it. I'm so desperately wanting to travel again.... sigh...aren't we all :( Thank you for the upload, Cari!

It’s so awesome to see people who are incredibly passionate about their communities. Also, look at how proud that beer guy was. I look forward to another video of this area when you head back. Another great video, Cari.
Enjoy your cookies :) ❤️🇨🇦☺️

We should appreciate Cari for capturing such places and making us fall for them through the screen 💜💜💜💜

Love the idea of reviving an old area like this. Must require a lot of effort, vision, and passion.

[KristaWasHere]

Don’t we just all love an old town turned into a modern and hip community but still centered on culture and history and nostalgia 🤍 thanks Cari for tagging us along!

Best channel to watch during on my quarantine!

[lanimartinez]

Traveling vicariously via Cari and really loved today’s tour of this up and coming area of Incheon. Looks like good vibes and can’t wait to see it when we visit Seoul. Thank you 🙏🏼

[nowornever]

Aaah I miss Korea. Your videos capture the essence of Korea so well...busy yet peaceful, modern yet traditional, skyscrapers and mountains. Through it all, your character and personality shine thru. Nice videography and soundtracks.

[rachelsaelid]

Wow, what a cool project, I love how they are keeping the history of the old neighborhood. I also loved all the photos of the owners and their shops. 💕

[anyaguinzbourg]

I love to see old neighbourhoods being brought back to life! 💜

[rheamehrotra]

is it just me watching & re-watching all of Cari's videos because she's so good at it. She truly deserves much more recognition for her work..words won't suffice the way we discover Korea from Cari's eyes. I bow down to you queen. Love & virtual hugs from India. 🌿🧿💟

[zinzinoah]

I know this video is going to be BOMB! Thank you Cari!

[sweet_blues]

The coolest video from now on this place is on my list, I need to visit it !!!

[thepeasantfarmer]

I love that all these old buildings and spaces are being made new and becoming the coolest places and not being torn down and replaced. 🥰

[nyahkuzmicka]

I'm not sure how because I've never been to any of these places, but somehow all of your videos just feel like memories and it's such a lovely feeling to watch them! It's this strange mix of nostalgia like vibes, how friendly you are, and a great choice in music that just hits just right, so thank you so much for creating such wonderful content

[martinacardenas]

after knowing the effort u make to find music for your videos, i can tell u that they are a crucial part of it. i know a lot of bloggers like u who use the lofi music and i it, i can’t watch their videos at all. all this to say i really appreciate how much thought goes into this, it really doesn’t go unnoticed
