simsontang is restaurant owned by shim tae yoon (owner of hwangbo's management company, shimty). hwangbo once twitted, fans can leave letters, gifts, etc at the restaurant so everything will be directed to her. many fans did as instructed and hwangbo confirmed the receipt of most gift via her twitter.

i posted simsontang address quiet a while ago however many are still asking. here i put it up again:

many also interested to drop by and having some meals at the restaurant, here i posted the direction to get to simsontang:

1) get to line 3 of the subway
2) stopped at sinsa station
3) get to exit 1
4) from exit 1, you need to walk straight for 2-3 kilometers
5) you will cross a few small paths along the way and pass by many shops as well
6) finally you will arrive at a very big 4 junction
7) at the junction, you see many signboard said 'Gangnam Eulji Medical Centre'
8) cross the junction (still heading straight)
9) the hospital is now in front of you. you can see dinosaur skeleton fitted at its signboard
10) make sure the hospital now is on your left and walk straight (pass the hospital)
11) turn left at the very first left junction (before 'Paris Baquette' bakery) and walk straight
12) on your right should be few cafes
13) simsontang should be one of the cafe on your right. take note of the red signboard

i hope the following picture can help you to get to the infamous restaurant. don't give up if you ever loss. i asked more than 5 people to get to the restaurant. the journey from the station is quite far. so be prepared! wear comfortable shoes and don't carry too many things.

notice the dinosaur skeleton? this is 'Gangnam Eulji Medical Centre'. the restaurant is roughly behind the hospital. credit the pic to jackie at dramatomy.com
