- Hi everyone! Sorry this video took so long to come out, I didn't even finish my entire list but I figured I'd never visit every single bookstore in Seoul so this short list is good for now :) Hope you've found some new places to explore or, like me, you just enjoy looking at some picturesque bookshelves sometimes lol. This weekend I'll be posting my 'favorite books of 2019' video so to all my book lovers - make sure your notification bell is on ;)

i wish there was a cari cakes for each country in the world.
Money 😅😅😅😅
Omg yes seriously
holy smokes bookstores in seoul are PRE-TTY!!!!!!!! thank you so much for sharing, my bookworm heart is content 💕
The first one is one of the filming location of hotel del luna. 😁
ohhhh!! how cool!
I've never been to Korea and I'm not going anytime soon but I still watched this video 💛 i love your videos so much!
bookstore inspo is the best inspo!! thank you always!!!
Unfortunately I can't read for fun right now as I have an exam coming up. But this got me in such a good mood to read the script.
I also noticed with dread that I haven't been to a mortar and brick bookstore in way too long. I get a lot of my books through online sellers, usually used though. No es bueno. Bookstores are wonderful, little gardens where books live.
My next trip to Seoul is going to be so much more expensive 😢😁
hahhaha sorry not sorry!
i love how ive been to all of these lol GREAT vid as always cari
I love the calm energy your videos give. Seoul Can be such a hectic city, but I also found it very calm in a weird way. I love how you’re able to do that in your videos and have that tranquil “aesthetic” vibe and the weird side with the tractor randomly appearing 💖
Thank you ☺️ and lmao yeah random tractors always coming into my vlogs 🤧
As a booklover and a library enthusiast 😂 this was soooo nice to Watch. Thank you cari!! and keep yourself warm in the cold weather😊
Ohhhh~ these places are so beautiful 😍 Definitely going to check some of em’ out!
I apologize in advance to your wallet 😅
All of these bookstores are amazing. Good recommendations 🤗
FINALLY A BOOK VIDEOOOO, ILYSM CARI!!
Oh my gosh! It's the bookstore on Hotel De Lunaa! 🥰🥰🥰🥰
Thanks for this video! It’s good to see bookstore are also aesthetically beautiful in seoul as well✨✨😍
Definitely adding these places to my list! The little rainbow on the stairs was so cute
I just noticed, oh well, we all know you're already beautiful but you are really getting more beautiful every day 🧡 Imagine pretty face in pretty places? Perfect~
I almost screamed when you showed that Bunnicula book! I totally forgot I read those books and I loved them as a kid. Also magic tree house, I was obssessed with reading every one
Great tour! The only notable omission, for me, was Post Poetics, which is rather similar to Book Society.
Catching up on your videos huhu. Cari i hope i get to see you this april aaahhhhhh
When you like the video even before starting to watch it... that's how much trust I have in Cari's videos. As expected I loved the video so I would like it twice if I could :)
I miss you already! I've just watched your Tokyo vlog and here i am rewatching one of my favourite video of yours 💕
cari: new video is up n-
me: *already throwing my phone away and grabbing my laptop to watch it*
can i just say how much i adore you, hi please? your videos give me the coziest of feelings!! i was also wondering, in the fuuuuuture could you maybe do some little tips on how to survive seoul in the spring? as i'll be travelling in the spring next year!! (unless you have already done this and i'm just blind lol) anyways, i literally adore you, keep doin your thang!!!!
gah thank you ahhh and here's one video but i really need to redo it hahahaha ruclips.net/video/fwG91lTGnts/видео.html
@@caricakes omg you are the best, thank you!!!! ahhhh no i'm sure this is perfect!!!
Mmmm I opened the video on my phone the moment I saw it and realized, must watch it in it's full glory on bigger screen. 🙂
Love this video so hard! Didn't know such good places were in Seoul ❤️
언제나 영상이 개성있고 편안해서 즐겁게 보고있어요ㅋ 감기 조심하시고 새해 복 많이 받으세요^^
😭🙏 감사합니다! 새해 복 많이많이 받으세용!
YES! As a major book lover, I’ve been waiting for this vlog! ♥️♥️
my favorite kind of people!!!
I was so excited for this video! I’m staying in sinchon right now to visit my sister. Can’t wait to visit some of these places with her!
I think a scene in When the Camelia Blooms was filmed in history books 👌👌 so cutee!!
I think so too!!
What I really LOVE about your videos:
• high quality 😍 recording
• the content 😌
Keep going gorgeous 🥰♥️
I knew you wouldn't go back to your place until you bought at least one book... 🤣 Very pretty bookstores and very pretty captured!
ok but i can literally spend an entire day in these places 😭🧡
RIGHT?!
I swear all the aesthetics that I crave for are found here in Seoul!
Ur feeding me with this comforting content 😍
That Arc n Book place...such fancy, much visuals.
YAAAAAS I LOVE IT WHEN YOUR BOOK VIDEOS !!!
Books, books, books, I'm so happy!!!! I love book stores. I get lost in book stores. Thank you for a great video. Stay happy, healthy, and safe. Blessed be
they're the best!!!
@@caricakes indeed
This was so lovely!! I'm a sucker for bookstores vlogs
Love the book content, all the book stores look so aesthetic and cozy!
If you ever plan on making more book related videos, I would love to know more about libraries in South Korea. As a librarian I'm always so fascinated about other countries' libraries.
Oh, wish I could have seen this sooner because I just got back from Seoul! Was just too busy enjoying every moment of it to watch youtube haha. But I'll be back for sure and visit all those awesome shops ^^
Cari, than you for this!! Love Love Love all of this and already on my list for the 1st days in Seoul!
Books!! ❤️ My town recently opened a new, beautiful library, and after I explored it for the first time, I wanted to just live there forever among the books. This vlog is giving me those same feelings!
Also, on a nonbook-related note, I absolutely loved that color of lipstick on you in the first half of the vlog. It looked beautiful!
yay!! gotta bookmark all these stores when i visit seoul again!!
Yessss!!!!
ah this video has some great bookish wanderlust energy.. makes you want to go explore or get lost in a book!
yesssss!!!
Currently planning a Korea trip and so excited to visit some of these bookstores 😍 Also, that lipstick color in the beginning looks so lovely on you!
Thank you!! Hope your trip is lovely 😍
I like hearing the birds in the background at the beginning. :)
loved this video ❤️🥺 btw i really like this type of bg music for your videos!!
Heaven!!! 📚📚📚 😊 Hope you, Kurt, and all your loved ones have an amazing year ahead! 😊
agreed! and thank you so much! hope 2020 is amazing for you as well!
my booknerd heart is so happy with this :3
thanks for making this, Cari!
Ohhh historybooks looks like the bookstore that they filmed a scene from the kdrama when the camellia blooms in!! Also all the bookstores look so cozy ahhhh
I think it was!! Such a cute lil place!
Woahhh, would totally go in these places just for inpiration's sake in itself 😍
exactly!!!
Yes Ofr started in France! The one in Paris is also very good! It’s manly Art/design/ photography books but their also doing some exhibitions and selling vintage clothing :)
I have this “Apartamento” issue it’s so good!
ohhhhh maybe i'll have to plan a trip there too hehe and yes!!! i'm only two articles in but it has so much inspo!
I hope 0fr lasts longer in Seoul than it did in London or Tokyo.
Thanks for making this amazing video ❤ I need this kind of video
I was expecting this to be a lovely, visually aesthetic vid and then I saw the Bunnicula collection ( a childhood fave) and Monet, so now I'm deep in a google search book dive. Thank you. Also, you find the best places to visit. Keep it up :)
yessss! i was surprised by how great their english kids book section was! and thank you^^
Omg this is so pretty 🥰🥰🥰 take me with you to those bookstores~~
One of my favourite videos of yours! Love it :)!
Omg magic treehouse 😭 I used to have every book when I was younger and totally forgot about them
Gah I’m late bc of work but yesss this vlog was a great way to end my night 🥰 And you have so much self control Cari there’s no way I’d be able to go to that first bookstore and not buy anything, I’m so bad at that haha no matter how much I tell myself I already have so many TBR books on my self I always end up buying a new book 😭 Also another side note I really love that beret the color is so pretty!
Everything I want in a video: books, artsy shoots, food, dog and Cari
🙏🙏🙏
Your b rolls are the bomb...Joy, Joy!!! I think I saw history books in a kdrama in2019, forgot the title.
A book lovers dream!!💙 I’m taking notes for my move there later this year. Thank you for sharing this with us Cari!💙
Yay!! Enjoy and best of luck on the move 😍
Already know that this video is going to be good and I've only been here for 5 seconds 😊
🙏🙏🙏
Great video! Inspiration for me to do the same here in Beijing. Ofr was one of my favorite librairies (en français) in Paris. Great to know that they're in Seoul now too!
All these beautiful places and Beautiful Car. Thank you for taking us with you💕💕
Thanks for joining!!
Ooooo I’ll be going to arc n book later now !
Omg History Books is where they filmed a scene from the Netflix drama When the camellia blooms
Omg why didn't I know that bookstore in Common ground! I used to live right next to children's grand park station. I always discover things late xD Great vlog, next time I'll go to Korea I have a bucket list of bookstores to go through! (I really only knew couple before like Starfield, Kyobo and the one store near Gwanghwamun Kyobo which name I always forget).
Love your video's always Cari!
Will definitely do this when i visit Seoul (hopefully this year! 🤞) its a relaxing video! And because of that.. Now off to my books haha! Thanks Cari!
hehehe have a great day!
i love your videos so much! i really am thinking of throwing everything i have outta window and move to seoul and your videos make me wanna do it even more hahaha 💜🥰
LOL its a feeling i know well hahaha
i've been waiting (mostly) patiently for this baby!!! i've always only gone to Aladdin stores but now i'm :') gonna :') have :') options :') ps this has inspired me to raise my book challenge on goodreads so tysm
Geez, I LOVE reading. Perfect video for me📚😂.
yay!!! thanks for watching!
yay! adding this to my list of todo's when i go back to seoul this year
the never ending list!! hehehe
@@caricakes most of what was on my list when i went to seoul last october came from your vlogs! i didnt manage to get to visit all of them but hopefully this coming march i will be able to :)
Beautiful video as always xx So lovely to see so many independent bookstores. This has made me realise I live in London, there are probably loads here as well I just never go out to find them! Will make this this weekend's mission. How big is Seoul? London is massive and takes ages to get across haha
this is so exciting!! when i went to seoul, i only went to starfield library :-( i am looking forward to visiting these bookstores soon! thanks, cari’
Thats a gorgeous one too 😍😍😍
Hey Cari! I just quickly wanted to thank you for all the effort you put in your videos. They always put me in a good mood and bring a refreshing few minutes of calmness to my college life. Also, I was wondering what your favorite MCR song is. Lot’s of love and support from Germany! 😊
Thank you so much! Its impossible to choose but maaaaaybe thank you for the venom????
The Ofr. In Paris... is amazing!
I have to go 😍
Wow! Those bookstores are really beautiful!!! Omg! I love how you show other sides of the city that are so pretty. Who would've thought of seeing bookstores when visiting another country? Well, that's me now thanks to you hahaha. Have a nice week Cari! Loved your vlog as always 💜💜
visiting bookstores while you're traveling is so fun but packing extra books in your luggage on the way home is nooooot hahahahah thank you!!
Such a cute video 🙌🤗 love seeing the book shops!
thanks for watching!
oof can't wait to go and explore when i go someday 🥺💓
cant wait for you to visit either ahhh!
wow, makes the bookstore I work in look...unique...
Your videos make me forget my troubles ~~~♡♡♡♡♡♡♡
The fact that there are so many cute bookshops in Seoul but South Korea has one of the lowest percentage of readers is so interesting. I think that this is due to the fact that koreans work like crazy so they have no free time (i'm just guessing, I know this culture so little).
I really enjoyed this vlog, thank you!!
Love this! 😍📚
Cari, have you ever tried one of Hyundai libraries? Each library has specific themes like travel, music etc. I think there are four in Seoul. I only went to two of them, and they had great collection of books (including english ones) and the places were so beautiful. The library itself is free, but you can only get in if you own hyundai card. If you don't own the card, ask arround if someone has hyundai card, bc members can take a friend to the libraries. I also heard that there's an app that you can use to get in to the libraries, but not sure.
Btw great video! I decided i would go on bookstore tour today, your video made me want to read(and buy books) haha
I’ve always wanted to but dont have a hyundai card 😭 maybe I’ll pester my friends hahahha
Lots of books arranged in circular arches around these parts, I've noticed.
Whoahh... bookstore hopping should be the next big thing!😄
Also I read what the book's alrready closed?
I read Bunnicula and The Egypt Game in Middle School and Elementary!
I loved them both so much!
going to crack open a book with a cup of coffee right now thanks to the muse from this video! sharp objects here i come ☕️
omg yes! we love a thriller!
This is such a wonderful video but also very dangerous as my wallet will definitely get drained at bookstores. Great video for me as I get off my flight and wait around to get picked up.
yeah i deeeefinitely did not keep to my goal of 'just looking' while filming hahhaha and hope you had a good flight^^
Lovely bandana after the timeskip!! 💕
Thank you! Me too 🥰
That book search booth in one of the first bookstores was the cutest thing I've ever seen!!! Also, I've been interested in reading Lonesome You by Park Wan-Suh for a looong time, so happy to see that you bought it. What about libraries in Seoul? Are there a lot of public libraries or mainly like campus libiaries?
There are some libraries but the English sections are often pretty dismal 😞 but i use the apps libby and overdrive to rent ebooks in korea!!!
Beautiful. So jealous! 📚❤️
Who knew....a book on bookshops 😍😍😍
if only i had seen it in the beginning of this vid hahahhaa
Lol....I need to have a look at it now....you have some amazing bookshops out there....
anyone: Israa what do you want to do when you grow up?
Israa: Cari cakes
man that looks like heaven
yesss been waiting for this 😍
😍😍😍
Just came across your blood. Fascinating insight into korea
This is my favourite kind of video
Midnight at it's finest 👌
💓💓💓
Aaaaaa! I already go home with at least 5 books from every trip. My self control will definitely be tested in Seoul.
