A Day at 943 King's Cross: Muggles, Magic, and Matcha!

Greetings, magical beings and muggles alike! Welcome to another chapter of our family's enchanting adventures in the heart of Seoul.

Once upon a misty morning, our lively crew, consisting of Jon (my Star Wars aficionado), Russell (our budding explorer), my whimsical Mom Loren, my sister Pan (a Potterhead to the core), and the charming Luna, embarked on a quest to uncover the secrets of a mystical realm—943 King's Cross, a Harry Potter-themed café that promised a blend of potions, wonders, and giggles!

Inspired by the whispers of Pinterest, we set forth from Jongno Station, leaving behind the artistic echoes of Insadong Culture Street, delving deep into the labyrinth of the Seoul subway system. With several transfers and a sprinkle of muggle magic (thank you, subway map!), we emerged victoriously at Hongik University Station.

The journey was nothing short of a Grimm tale! The paths were winding, the sights spellbinding, and the air tinged with anticipation. As we strolled through the bustling streets of Hongdae, the promise of magic drew us closer to our destination.

Ah, 943 King's Cross! Eight floors of wizardry wonders awaited our curious eyes. We explored the nooks and crannies, each floor a new chapter in our spellbinding story. From the cozy wizard’s hut in the basement to the dormitory-themed fourth floor, every corner whispered tales of magical mischief and enchanting escapades.


Now, every adventure requires a dash of sweetness and a sip of sparkle. I, the ever-adventurous , opted for a Strawberry-ale, a bubbly concoction that danced with flavors of the enchanted forest. Russell, with eyes sparkling with mischief, delved into the rich realms of a Wizard's Chocolate. Pan, the evergreen Harry Potter enthusiast, chose a Wizard Green Tea, a blend as mysterious and captivating as the tales of Beedle the Bard.

Around us, the walls echoed with laughter, the air shimmered with spells, and the rooms were alive with the spirit of Hogwarts. Every sip was a drop of magic, every bite a taste of wonder. Even Jon, loyal to the galaxies far, far away, couldn’t resist the charm of the magical realm.

As the sun dipped below the horizon, casting golden hues on our day of wonders, our hearts were filled with joy, our bellies with magical treats, and our minds with enchanting tales, reminding us once again that every moment, no matter how small, is an adventure waiting to be told.
