Suwon_Jeongjo Salon

Sensuous café

Sensuous café run by adoring brother and sister


King Jeongjo loved academics, was good at martial arts and was quite fond of drinking. He abolished the prohibition that had existed in Joseon for 53 years. Scores of anecdotes related to his love for drinking and his servants exist. The great scholar Dasan Jeong Yak-yong was often embarrassed by the king's love for alcohol. There are many anecdotes about him that have been told from generation to generation, including the one where the king recommended Dasan liquor with a high alcoholic strength after pouring it into his jade pencil case and another where the scholars who got drunk after drinking several bowls of liquor that the king gave them bowed or lay down.



Walking from Hwaseomun towards Temporary Palace, you will pass the cafe Jeongjo Salon run by Cho Eun-byeol and Cho Sang-mok who are brother and sister. They named it wishing that in the city built by King Jeongjo, this cafe would be a resting place where people can visit anytime and feel at home. If King Jeongjo was here, he would tell people to bring strong liquor and drink until they get drunk. However, these loving brother and sister brew coffee instead of liquor and bake fresh and delicious bread and cakes.


Jeongjo Salon is a popular cafe crowded with tourists on weekends. However, the brother and sister say, "We like it the most on weekday afternoons when people talk to each other quietly, or read books alone."




● Bread is baked by Cho Eun-byeol. She learned baking while she worked as a designer. Cakes made by a designer are simple yet beautiful.
