EXO Tour | Top 7 Places
Follow the footsteps of EXO in Seoul
If you are an EXO-L, these places will become your top priority locations to visit while you are staying in Korea. You could follow in the footsteps of EXO and experience what they have experienced and see what they've seen.
Get ready to explore some of EXO's favourite restaurants and cafes.
Kumdoiji Sikdang (금돼지식당)
Korean BBQ is not only about food but also having the whole authentic experience. If you are planning on going for Korean BBQ, I strongly recommend going to this restaurant called Kumdoiji Sikdang. Kumdoiji means a golden pig and sikdang means a restaurant. Kumdoiji Sikdang is a trendy and popular restaurant among the locals for its high-quality food and premium pork. After EXO visited this place, it gained even more popularity.
Since their pork is premium, the price is quite high, but when you take the very first bite, you will understand the price range. It's delicious and melts inside your mouth. Every bite you have, you will understand why the owner named the restaurant golden pig.
Sehun and Suho visited Kumdoiji Sikdang together and uploaded a picture of them together on Instagram. Many other celebrities and idols such as Jungkook and Jimin from BTS came here to enjoy their Korea BBQ as well.

Emoi (에머이 가로수길)
Vietnamese food is one of Koreans' favourite food. You can easily find Vietnamese franchise restaurants in Korea, such as Emoi and Pho Bay.
The specific location that Sehun and Chanyeol visited is located in Garosu-gil. The restaurant opens 24/7, so visit whenever you feel like and enjoy the delicious Vietnamese food!

Elephant (엘리펀트)
If you are a big fan of Baekhyun, you might have noticed this place already! This is the cafe where Baekhyun filmed his vlog from his own YouTube channel.
It is a four-story building with a rooftop as well as many Instagrammable photo spots! This charming elephant themed cafe will be a great place to visit if you are a fan of Baekhyun. Also, don't forget to sit on the same spot as Baekhyun, take a picture, and make the moment memorable.

Hours: Tues to Sun 12:00 - 24:00, Mon 12:00 - 22:00
Milky Yo (밀키요)
Are you into healthy snacks and handmade Greek yogurt? If you are, why don't you visit D.O's go-to yogurt place, Milky Yo? Their yogurt has twice as much oil and lactobacillus than regular yogurt, which means the yogurt is packed with more nutrients. Who knows? You might bump into D.O.
If you would like to try D.O.'s favourite yogurt, say 'Y1' whenever you are ordering. In case you forget, D.O.'s favourite yogurt is also indicated on their menu.
Address: 서울특별시 종로구 팔판동 106-2
Hours: Everyday 12:00 - 19:00
Sushi Tatsu (스시타츠)
This is a sushi restaurant where all eight of the EXO members visited together. Sushi Tatsu is an omakase-style restaurant, which means "entrust yourself to the chef" in Japanese. Therefore, the price for a meal here is pricey, but you will enjoy the remarkable quality of ingredients, the taste, and the service.
If you would like to be in the room where all the eight EXO members visited, Sushi Tatsu is the right place. You can also claim the same seat as your favourite member.
Address: 서울 강남구 도산대로28길 18
Hours: Everyday 12:00 - 22:00 (breaktime 15:00 - 18:00)
Misari Milbich Chogyegugsu (미사리밀빛초계국수 건대점)
Misari Milbich Chogyegugsu was recommended by Baekhyun. Some could say this place is one of the best places to have chogyegugsu (noodles in chilled chicken soup). There are few people who bumped into Baekhyun at this restaurant, so give it a chance yourself!
Galbimandu (short rib dumpling) is EXO members' all-time favourite, suyug (boiled pork slices) is Baekhyun's favourite, and chogyegugsu is Xiumin, Sehun and Chen's go-to. Since most of the EXO members have been here to eat often, the restaurant even made a set menu called 'EXO set' (portion for 4-5 people) based on the members' favourite dishes.
Address: 서울 광진구 아차산로 312
Hours: 10:00 - 21:00
March Rabbit Salad (마치래빗샐러드)
They mainly offer healthy foods from salad to freshly squeezed juice. Suho was seen here sipping on the juice. If you are vegan or looking for a healthy diet option, March Rabbit it is! You won't get bored of eating the same salad every day thanks to their wide selection of salads.
