a museum morning into a Yongsan night
The National Museum is the country's best — give it the morning. The rest of the day is watching a neighborhood change: an old station quarter, once a red-light district, remaking itself block by block into design rooms and dining. A show at the Amorepacific museum is worth planning around. And the alleys inside Samgakji get loud once evening comes.

1. National Museum of Korea
Give it the morning — the third most-visited museum on the planet.
2. Bâton
The roastery team's brunch room — a late plate that earns the museum morning.
3. BATT TURR
Gelato after — a room with a designer's eye, and the scoops hold up to it.
The rest of the route is in the guide: why each stop, and how long between them, along with what to order at every one.
If the night wants more, Itaewon is two stops east on line 6 — but that one deserves its own evening.
