Tiled roof, Namsan tower behind it, tourists lining up to photograph a convenience store. Fair enough really.

Still a 7-Eleven, but the only one with a roof that gets its own fan page

Only convenience store in Seoul where the line outside is for the exterior. Inside it's the same triangle kimbap as everywhere else, I assume

a fan page for a roof. next up, one for the bin outside

7Nari2026.10.17

Queue for a roof, buy nothing, take 40 photos, leave. Local shop owner must love it

A fan page for the bin is next, and it'll have more followers than I do.

it's at the start of the inwangsan trail too, so you can get the photo and then do the hike. or just the photo, which is what i'd do

Photo, hike, then back for a snack is a perfectly good itinerary.

The sunset version is unreal. Still a 7-Eleven though

the roof is doing the work. take the tower out and it's still a good photo

Tourists queuing to photograph a convenience store is when I start worrying about the rest of the neighbourhood.

Tourists queuing for a convenience store roof is a good sign for the neighbourhood, honestly. Someone's looking up.

Cheapest travel photo in Seoul. No ticket, no reservation, just a queue 😅

7sleepy_orbit2026.10.17

Cute photo, sure. But I've seen that tiled roof on enough postcards that I'd rather find the next one nobody's queuing at yet.

7Haneul2026.10.17

nobody queues for the next one because the next one doesn't have Namsan Tower sitting behind it like a decoration 🥹

Finding the next roof nobody queues for is how every good café dies. Keep it secret, take the photo here.

Tourists photographing a convenience store is just Seoul being honest about what holds the city together at 2am.
