바르도
Bardo is a low-key, speakeasy-style cocktail bar tucked in Sejong Arcade basement near Gwanghwamun Station. It’s an easy honsul stop because the drinks stay simple—get a Negroni (they offer multiple styles) and you can settle into a cozy setup with comfortable host conversation. Come early for a calmer vibe, then linger at your own pace.
