No Problem on a Rainy Day! Perfect Indoor Date Course in Gangnam

Don't Panic Even with Sudden Rain

I had a date planned with my boyfriend in Gangnam yesterday, but it started raining from the morningㅠㅠ We originally planned to go to Hangang Park, but our plans were completely disrupted. However, it turned out that dating in Gangnam on a rainy day is quite romantic!

Honestly, I was a bit disappointed at first. The weather forecast said it would rain, but I didn't expect it. However, when we met at Gangnam Station, walking around with an umbrella felt quite atmospheric... It was like a scene from a movie ㅎㅎ

First Course: Devil Dice Board Game Cafe

To avoid the rain, we first went to a board game cafe near Gangnam Station. It was the Devil Dice Gangnam-daero branch, and the atmosphere there was amazing! It felt like a secret hideout from a movie or fairy tale.

The place was cozy from ceiling to floor, and the seats were spacious enough for two people to play games comfortably. We played Da Vinci Code and Splendor, and it was more fun than I expected! My boyfriend bragged about being good at board games, but I won ㅋㅋㅋ

The drinks were delicious, and above all, the staff explained the games kindly, so it was easy to learn even new games. Highly recommended for an indoor date on a rainy day!

Second Course: Starbucks Reserve Dosan Branch

After playing games, we walked a bit to have coffee at Starbucks Reserve Dosan Branch. This place is on a different level from regular Starbucks! With a luxurious and cozy atmosphere and coffee brewed with special beans...

The indoor atmosphere on the first floor was so beautiful that we took a lot of photos. Watching the rain outside while sipping warm coffee felt very romantic. My boyfriend usually doesn't like coffee, but he said it was delicious here.

Third Course: Dot Note Perfume Workshop One-Day Class

After coffee, we wanted to do something special, so we booked a one-day perfume-making class. It was at Dot Note Gangnam branch, and it was truly unique and fun!

I thought making perfume would be difficult at first, but the instructor explained it so kindly that it was easy to follow. Testing various scents and creating my own fragrance was really fascinating.

My boyfriend made a woody scent, and I made a floral scent, and it was fun to swap and try each other's perfumes ㅎㅎ You can take the completed perfume in a pretty bottle, so it's great as a souvenir!

Fourth Course: Dinner at a Gangnam Emotional Restaurant

After the experience, it was dinner time, so we looked for a nearby restaurant. Since it was a rainy day, we craved warm food, so we went to a place with soup dishes, and it was a great choice.

The indoor atmosphere was cozy, and listening to the sound of rain while eating was really healing. My boyfriend also said today's date was more fulfilling and fun than expected!

Summary of Gangnam Date on a Rainy Day

Originally, it was an outdoor date plan, but switching to indoor due to rain turned out to be a good decision. There are really various indoor date courses in Gangnam!

"I was disappointed because of the rain, but it turned out to be a more special day. Next time it rains, I want to date like this again!"
