Taxi tip

Itaewon and Hannam-dong sit just across the Han River from Sinsa, so a taxi via the Hannam Bridge is often approximately 15–25 minutes outside peak traffic. The bridge and Gangnam-daero can be congested at rush hour. Show the driver the Korean address.

Which branch is nearest?

The Sinsa Main Branch is the most direct option from Itaewon and Hannam-dong. The Mapo-Gongdeok branch is also reachable on Line 6 heading the other direction from Itaewon, so it may suit you if you are staying near Noksapyeong or Samgakji.

Planning treatment around Itaewon

  • Itaewon is known for international dining and nightlife; limit alcohol for a few days after injections or energy-based treatments, as advised by your doctor.
  • Consider booking a weekday morning consultation, then spend the afternoon in Hannam-dong's galleries and shops.
