In Seoul’s Yeouido district, there is a flagship store of Hyundai Department Store called “The Hyundai Seoul.” Opened on February 26, 2021, it boasts a retail space of 27,000 square meters, making it the largest single-building department store in Seoul and the seventh largest in the nation.
“The Hyundai Seoul” is the 16th store introduced by Hyundai Department Store after the Pangyo branch in 2015. It is also a place where Chairman Jeong Ji-sun of Hyundai Department Store Group expressed his ambition to make “The Hyundai Seoul” the top landmark in South Korea and elevate the group’s status.
“The Hyundai Seoul B1: Tasty Seoul”
“The Hyundai Seoul” is divided into different concepts on each floor. As a department store, you can naturally find a dining district in “B1” and “6th floor.”

Of course, on the B1 floor, in addition to “Tasty Seoul,” there are independent dining spaces where you can enjoy a variety of luxury desserts such as bakeries, rice cake shops, and cakes all in one place.
