몽상 Monsant Cafe



Monsant Cafe opened in 2015 & rapidly getting famous. Main reasons I think mostly because it is owned by G-Dragon, so there is a lot BIGBANG fans visit this cafe. But what was really impressed me is the architecture of Monsant Cafe. There have many glass windows, just like a big mirror reflecting the beautiful view of the ocean.  PERFECT!!!
