IKEA in South Korea- IKEA Gwangmyeong (이케아 광명)

The famous Sweden’s furniture retailer IKEA opened their outlet in Gwangmyeong- a suburb an hour drive from Seoul. I’ve read somewhere that this is their biggest stores in the world.

After stuffed ourselves with these delicious food, we started our tour. Basically we didnt have any plan to buy anything since we’re just student with no house but it was fun just looking at all the stuff being displayed. And you can get pretty nice pictures too, i was trying hard to be a little artsy xD

If you have a house in Korea and want to check out some furniture or decorations, come here. Or if you have nothing to do like me, just wandering around looking at stuff and eat, it’s not a bad choice. And there’s also Lotte Outlet Premium and Costco right next to IKEA.

How to get here: Gwangmyeong station (광명역), subway line 1. Going straight from exit 1 you can reach Costco, and IKEA will be a little bit on the left across the street.
