Gahoe-dong is a dong (neighborhood) of Jongno District, Seoul, South Korea.[1] [2]
The area used to be an exclusive area for nobles, scholars, and homes of government officials hence it was well-maintained. Many of the hanok, Korean traditional houses, have been remodeled into cafe, restaurant and teahouses.[3]
