In Google Maps (http://maps.google.com) just type “729-33 Hannam-dong, Seoul” there without the quotes.  It will also give you directions – in Korean. The following link will save you some typing: http://tinyurl.com/my92yw

In Kakao Maps (https://map.kakao.com/) type or copy/paste our Korean address: 용산구 한남동 729-33.  Kakao Maps offers good street views which are helpful with identifying landmarks.

Quick tips on road and feature names: -ro means road, -daero means a bigger road, guri is an intersection, -gyo is a bridge, -daegyo is a bigger bridge, -san is a mountain, -gang is a river, -gil means a secondary street while ga-gil denotes the first divergence of that secondary street, na-gil would be the second, followed by da-, ra- and ma-gil, etc. Provinces are denoted by -do, cities are -si, districts within cities are -gu and neighborhoods within the cities are -dong. There’s always more but that should suffice for now.

By Taxicab

If you are not fluent in Korean you may print the address below and show it to the driver, or display it from a smartphone.  It is in the “old” Korean address format and reads “Yongsan-gu Hannam-dong 729-33”.  The nearby Hannam Tower apartment building is fairly well-known so you may have good luck using that as a waypoint for the driver.  Also refer to the car travel directions above.

We remind native English speakers that they may have better luck being understood if they pronounce Hannam Tower as “Hahn-nahm Tah-ooh-uh”.  This is the Korean pronunciation of the transliteration to Hangeul.

If the driver requires the newer address format, it is:

By Car

It is best to use a GPS receiver or smartphone navigation app if one is available.  Please be advised that when driving you may only approach using Hannam-daero, as 27 gil is a one-way road.  If you try to approach our building by car from Itaewon-ro you may be ticketed.

From Itaewon:

Drive east/northeast on Itaewon-ro towards its intersection with Hannam-daero.  Bear right on Itaewon-ro, pass Hangangin Station and Blue Square (the new performance hall at the southwest corner of the intersection).  You will see a sign for Hannam bridge.  Turn right onto Hannam-daero.

Continue south on Hannam-daero towards the bridge.  Pass two foot bridges, slow down and make a sharp right onto Hannam-daero 27 gil, the first street after the intersection.  This is before Nine-One and Gourmet 494 and before Hannam 5 guri (the next major intersection before the Hannam bridge).

Drive down the small hill past Hannam Tower and bear left at the fork in the road.
There is a wine/liquor store on your left and Samsung Realty on right corner.

Drive southwest toward Namsan Park & Seoul Tower, follow the signs toward Hannam Bridge to reach Hannam-ro.

From the west circumference road (Seoul-gil) of Namsan Park at the exit ramp immediately get into one of the two left-most lanes and make a U-turn (following signs to Hannam Bridge, spelled “Hannamgyo” there) to reach Hannam-daero.

From the east circumference road of Namsan Park follow the signs to Hannam Bridge to reach Hannam-daero.

Continue south on Hannam-daero towards the bridge.  Pass two foot bridges, slow down and make a sharp right onto Hannam-daero 27 gil, the first street after the intersection.  This is before Nine-One and Gourmet 494, and before Hannam 5 guri (the next major intersection before the Hannam bridge).

From Gangnam:

Cross Han River (Hangang) via Hannam bridge which turns into Hannam-daero.  Stay in one of the left-most two lanes to bypass Hannam 5 guri (Hannam intersection).

After the overpass, continue north on Hannam-daero, moving over to the middle lanes to avoid the entrance ramp to Namsam 1 tunnel.

Once past the entrance ramp of Namsan 1 tunnel, continue on Hannam-daero, move to the left-most lane to make a U-turn at the light before the intersection with Itaewon-ro. 

After the U-turn move over to the right-most lane of Hannam-daero south. 

Continue south on Hannam-daero towards the bridge.  Pass two foot bridges, slow down and make a sharp right onto Hannam-daero 27 gil, the first street after the intersection.  This is before Nine-One and Gourmet 494 and before Hannam 5 guri (the next major intersection before the Hannam bridge).

From the Seoul Central Business District – choose one:

  • Namsan 3 tunnel – gets you to Itaewon, then follow directions from Itaewon above.
  • Over Namsan (from Namdaemun) – take it towards Yaksu and follow directions above.
  • Namsan 1 tunnel – stay in the right most lane and get off first exit onto Itaewon-ro west.  Make the first U-turn which will turn you around on Itaewon-ro east just before Hangangjin, just before the intersection with Hannam-daero.  Then follow the directions above from Itaewon.
  • Namsan 1 tunnel OOPS – If you miss the first exit for Itaewon-ro, the overpass traffic spills into Hannam-daero south, just short of 27 gil.  NEVER attempt to make the immediate right turn toward Hannam Tower as it requires crossing many lanes of traffic very quickly.  Instead just stay left on Hannam-daero, make a U-turn under the next overpass, drive north 900 meters on Hannam-daero, make another U-turn at the signal just before the Itaewon-ro / Hannam-daero intersection, then make the right onto 27-gil.
  • From the Dongdaemun area – take the main road towards Namsan which will get you to the rotary before Yaksu, then follow directions from Yaksu above.
