1. Yongsan Chiikawa Shop Location and Basic Information

The Yongsan Chiikawa Shop is directly connected to Yongsan Station, so it is very accessible.

Location: 3F, Living Park, Yongsan IPARK Mall, 55 Hangang-daero 23-gil, Yongsan-gu, Seoul (Dopamine Station)

Operating Hours: Daily 10:30 – 22:00

Payment Methods: Card payment only

2. The Reality of On-Site Waiting Times

To start with the conclusion, "unless you run the opening, it is really difficult to get in on the day or you have to wait for several hours."

Arriving before opening or around 10:10 AM: Long queues form in front of the door even before it opens, and people rush to the waiting list machines as soon as the doors open. Even if you register immediately, you will be assigned a number in the 200s (estimated wait time of 1 hour 20 minutes to over 2 hours).

3. Must-Know Waiting Tips for Visiting Yongchima

There is a point where many people waste time on-site due to a misunderstanding!

Register for the waiting list as soon as you arrive!
The long line stretching next to the store is not a 'line to enter the store,' but a 'waiting line to line up at the waiting registration machine (such as a catch table).' You should browse the store or take photos of the displays after you have completed your waiting list registration so you don't waste time.

Check the official account for the daily announcement.
On the day new products arrive, the waiting list registration location (external machines, etc.) or the start time for waiting list acceptance may change. Please be sure to check the admission guidelines for the day on our official social media before departure.
