Cheongdam-dong Luxury Shopping Street stretches from Galleria Department Store at Apgujeong Rodeo Station down to Cheongdam Junction along Apgujeong-ro. This area is lined with Seoul’s flagship luxury boutiques — think Saint Laurent, Dior, Burberry, Prada, Miu Miu, Ferragamo, Louis Vuitton, Gucci, Boss, Dolce & Gabbana, Chanel, Cartier, and more.

It’s one of the most upscale shopping areas in the city, often frequented by celebrities and influencers, making it a must-see spot for trendsetters and Hallyu fans. Many K-pop entertainment companies are also based here, including SM Entertainment, so don’t be surprised if you spot fans waiting around for idols.

Beyond shopping, stroll along Apgujeong-ro to check out the 18 “Gangnamdol” statues (giant art toy idols representing different K-pop groups). Just across from Galleria, Apgujeong Rodeo Street offers even more luxury boutiques and stylish cafés.
