Banpo beef restaurant with specialty cuts and doenjang jjigae: Ugojip

Ugojip is a specialty-cut beef restaurant in the basement of Banpo Shopping Town Building 5, by Express Bus Terminal Station in Seocho, Seoul. A married couple arrived around 5pm and ordered the 400g couple set at 49,000 won — usamgyeop (thin beef belly), galbisal (short rib meat), tosisal (hanging tender) and a brisket doenjang jjigae (soybean paste stew) — eating the beef wrapped in onion slices with the house sauce and adding a bowl of rice for the generously loaded stew. Ugojip is a good call when you want beef near Express Bus Terminal at an easy price.

Gangnam-gu Office Station hair salon: matte brown dye, Anew Hair

Anew Hair Cheongdam Main Branch is a personal hair consulting salon a 3-minute walk from Gangnam-gu Office Station Exit 2 in Gangnam, Seoul. Head stylist Eunbyeol gave a free 1:1 consultation, then did a matte brown tone-down dye slightly darker than before to match the writer's face tone, along with scalp scaling. The consultation room at Anew Hair, where head shape, face shape and scalp condition are sketched out and explained, was the most satisfying part of the visit.
