Aewol Cafe Street

This guide to Aewol Cafe Street in Jeju starts at a glass-fronted cafe that once served as the living room of Big Bang's G-Dragon, opened here in October 2015 and filled with his own art collection and a six-figure chandelier. It follows the crowds that queued before sunrise and the reported daily sales the cafe drew during its early fame. You'll hear what eventually became of the space, and how it compares to the cafes now lining this stretch of coast. Walk the strip in early morning before the crowds arrive.
