Lightweight blue-light frames at 007 Optical, a Namdaemun optician
007 Optical is a glasses shop on the first floor of Sangdong Church in Namdaemun Market, Jung-gu, Seoul, long called the go-to spot for eyewear in the area. The writer went with a younger sister briefly home from Australia, picked a lightweight blue-light-blocking frame, had an eye exam and a progressive lens consultation, then found the glasses finished after a 30-minute walk around the market. For anyone in Korea on a short trip, the fast turnaround at 007 Optical is a real advantage.
