If you haven't been here, you can come and have a look. It happened to snow on the day I went there, so you can take the cable car up, which is very safe! We stayed here for about 3 hours and could see the beautiful night view of Seoul from the top, which was great!

It was an amazing experience, we went at night around 8pm and was greeted by amazing views on top! We did the tradition of locking our love locks at the peak as well (note: there are locks sold at the top as well with minimal price difference). Overall a once in a lifetime experience with your loved ones.
