Korean restaurant open till 10pm at Express Bus Terminal: Bapjangin

Bapjangin Express Bus Terminal Branch is a Korean restaurant on the B1 floor of Seoul Express Bus Terminal in Seocho, Seoul, open from 10:00 to 22:00. Arriving in Gangnam close to 9pm after a three-night, four-day trip to Yeosu, the writer ordered spicy kimchi stew for 12,000 won and smoky bulgogi for 14,000 won, and the earthenware pot came loaded with tofu, meat and ramen noodles beside char-grilled bulgogi. Bapjangin is where you can still get a hot Korean meal after every other restaurant in the terminal has switched off its lights.

With window seats facing the sea and self-serve americano, Ravenna made an easy choice for a celebration meal.
