Shinsegae Department Store Food Hall
After lunch I went to check out some views at the N Seoul Tower in Namsan Park. I didn’t have any food there but here are some pics of that.
There are walls where couples can clip a lock onto.

After coming down from the tower, I went to the Shinsegae department store nearby to get a snack at their food hall. Shinsegae is the other huge department store in Myeongdong along with the Lotte department store, and they have a similarly impressive food hall in the lower level. Here’s some pictures of the food hall there.
For a snack I had some tteokbokki from the Igane Topokki 이가네 떡볶이 counter in the restaurant section of the food hall. From what I could look up online, Igane (also romanized as Leegane) is a tteokbokki stand in Busan. I guess this is a Seoul outpost? Despite the redness of the thick sauce, it was not super spicy and a bit sweet. There were lots of big pieces of tteokbokki with a really nice chewy texture. There were also some large thin squares of fish cake that also soaked up a good bit of the sauce.
