If you are in need of something to read and have no clue how to decipher the Korean Language then What The Book in Itaewon is the place for you.
Located across the street and down the block from Helios Night Club, What The Book offers everything from Science Fiction and Fantasty to Contemporary and Historical novels and Biographies of every type imaginable.
The place is small, but they cram a lot of books into the every nook and cranny. The prices are high though, even for the used books, so be prepared to pay, for example, double for a paperback that you would buy back home.
And if magazines are your thing then they have you covered as well. They also can order any book you don’t have, so don’t fret if your favorite bedtime reading material isn’t stocked on the shelves.
