Stationery Haul

It's scary how much money I can spend on stationery goods and also how much time I can spend browsing in stationery stores. If you leave me alone in there, I will empty my wallet. 

Alas, I must restrict myself to only a few things, and I just wanted to share a couple of trinkets I've bought so far.

Korea has 2 main stationery stores (and a lot of other smaller pop-ups/shops): Kyobo Book Centre and Young Poong Book Store.

They're actually bookstores but also hold a wide variety of stationery goods. The size and variety of the goods depend on each branch. Some of the bigger ones are in Gangnam and Yongsan, but even the smaller ones have so many cute little stationeries that you can spend a good amount of time testing out each pen color and flipping through all the character-themed notebooks.

For stationery lovers, this place is heaven. For the casuals, it's a good place to buy souvenirs. In any case, I highly recommend checking these places out!
