4 Bookstores and Libraries to Visit in Seoul [Personal View]

Recently, I visited and explored some awesome bookstores in Seoul, like Arc n Book, YP Books, and Starfield. Each spot had its vibe. If you’re into books or must-see spaces, definitely check these out!

Welcome, dearies!

I’m sure you have been following this new bookish adventures series here on the blog and on YouTube, but if you haven’t there are other insights of bookstores in Seoul that I visited recently, you can check them out:

But if that’s too much, I have compiled it all here today, what was it like going to each of these bookstores? It was certainly a magical and want-to-repeat experience for me.

Also, there’s a special one that I had not mentioned before, check out the view inside Bluesquare later.

Did you hear about Dragon Ball Super Galactic Patrol?

Now set for production is Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol, or 銀河パトロール囚人編.

Hello, dearies! 🐉

This an anime related one, and you might not know this one but I am a huge Dragon Ball fan, enthusiast? Whichever you prefer.

I watched DBZ several times, DB Kai even more, even GT at the time (DB from the 80s? Maybe one time), I am more of a Gohan and Vegeta fan to be honest, oh, and of course Super, all the movies and the anime, and the movies again, Broly was also in my radar a couple of times. Super Hero, a little bit.

Daima? I am still working on it. Wow, that was a lot of naming and catching you up on my tastes, and the reason for my excitement!!!

There is the recent announcement of Dragon Ball Super: The Galactic Patrol, which was introduced at the 40th anniversary celeb of Dragon Ball on January 25 at the Dragon Ball Genkidamatsuri.

What is a NonSense Book?

Ever read a book that made zero sense, and yet somehow felt perfect? That’s the nonsense genre, mostly…

Hello, dearies! Welcome to a new rambling about a bookish topic.

Because yes, I will ramble a little bit. Did you know that there is a book genre that is called: nonsense or non-essential? I didn’t know it was called that, but I have read the main book in this category, and you might have as well.

But alright, let’s first answer a few things, like what it is, and what it means when reading.

2025 Blog Recap

“A room without books is like a body without a soul.”

Hello, dearies! Happy New Year!

2026 is the Year of the Horse, did you know? I didn’t, but now I do. So, expect a horse-related book listing coming soon to accompany the one from the 2024 Year of the Dragon book list and the 2025 Year of the Snake book list.

But for now, let’s focus on what happened in the blog in 2025, here’s the blog recap.

January 2025

I started the year strong reading and finishing books that had been on my TBR list for ages like Beautiful Burn and A Beautiful Funeral by Jamie McGuire, but even when I wanted to be the trend of the year, later on it decreased in intensity, you’ll see.

February 2025

“...everything burns when a star dies.” Whoa, you might recognise that one from The Mystery of Aaravos, which I finished watching by Feb. Also, I did a special one for romance (Valentine’s) and finally shared my first impressions about Arc n’ Book in Seoul (that’s a bookstore).

March 2025

Wow, March was a more active month it would seem, it’s fun to go back and see what I was talking about months ago, starting with Sunrise on the Reaping, the list of books that have snakes in the title or in them, a couple of listings that were the 9 books I would re-read without question, and 5 K-Dramas to Watch.

But that was not all, I also talked about what Bu Bu Jing Xin is, a novel in which Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo is based on (that’s a Korean drama). And I continued my obsession with Horimiya as well, do you like that anime? I find it fascinating, it’s a short one so you can watch it in a weekend, I have spoilers for it and also chatted about whether Horimiya is an acquired taste or not. However, if you are more interested in travel and bookish stuff, there is the YP Books tour that I did.

April 2025

This one also featured a bookish travel entry, but for Starfield in Seoul and Suwon, yes, there are two of these libraries and it was amazing in both places.

I also went back to a throwback with a beloved short story collection as The Bane Chronicles is, this review was for The Fall of the Hotel Dumort, but I also did one for City of Ashes, which will be on the podcast soon.

And because I couldn’t stop talking about Sunrise on the Reaping just yet, I did a Spoiler Sunday special of the book.

May 2025

May was also a busier month than others, with some book challenges and book reviews for: Avenged by an Angel and Beyond the Wand (Tom Felton’s book).

But there is also a behind-the-scenes look at my bookshelves and how I reorganised them back then.

June 2025

June was less post-heavy but there was news about the upcoming The Lunar Chronicles movie, so of course, I had to talk about that. I also finished reading: Seduced by a Demon King. And did a list of books that are still on my TBR and I keep saying I will read them soon. I haven’t, yet.

July 2025

Going into July and realising that I finished The Magician’s Nephew half a year ago is almost scary, because I only just finished The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe recently, so, it took me a while to finish it. But there were also a couple of book challenges if you’re interested in doing some: Find That Book pt.2.

August 2025

Almost over with the year, in August there were not that many posts from me, sorry about that, but I did finish reading: Scorched by Darkness.

And season 3 of EachPage Flow (my podcast) began.

September 2025

Crickets… nothing posted in September, sorry, I was travelling.

October 2025

In October I chatted about one of my favourite k-dramas watched in 2025: The Potato Lab. And then talked again about Beautiful Disaster because, why not? This time, there were some spoilers in it.

Oh, and I also went back in time and chatted about The Chamber of Secrets once again because it is the Wizarding World and the podcast featuring an episode about it.

November 2025

Oh, I only gave spoilers about Furuba (Fruits Basket), because I saw some things online that made me want to type out and rant about it.

December 2025

And with that, December was already upon me and I realised that I had been super busy in the last quarter of the year, so only some time for The Hunger Games Throwback and talking about another anime that I liked and wanted to ramble about: Classroom of the Elite season 3.

And that was it for my blog in 2025, eachpage.org is still here for everyone who loves books, anime, TV Shows, movies, and more. Thank you for all this wonderful time, dearies! I truly appreciate the love, the returning viewers, and the new ones.

With that, don’t forget to follow, like, and share the blog to other who’d love to know more. Have a great start to 2026.

Classroom of the Elite Season 3… and 4 Teaser

‘Students of the prestigious Tokyo Metropolitan Advanced Nurturing High School are given remarkable freedom…’

Welcome, dearies!

I’m back with a new one on anime and light novels.

But you are here for some rants I am sure… and since it’s been a while since I talked about this type of things, I had to pick one of the latest I watch. First, have you watched Classroom of the Elite? Season 1 and 2 were impactful for me.

But it was a long time ago, so I had to re watch the whole series before going into Season 3… it was worth it 😄

So, what did I think about it? Do I sound less excited than my previous mini rambling about CotE? Maybe.

It took me a bit to watch the final episode. But it’s on me for assuming what would happen and I shouldn’t have.

Now, prepare for spoilers if you haven’t watched the anime or read the light novel.

TBT: The Hunger Games [THG Book 1]

“Happy Hunger Games! And may the odds be ever in your favor.”

Hello, dearies!

Happy Hunger Games!

That’s not it, I mean, hello, it’s been a while, and welcome to a new Throwback Thursday!

Have you read The Hunger Games trilogy? Or book 1: The Hunger Games?

It can be confusing when talking about it.

I have read it but one time, and it was enough for me. I did like it, of course, and I was surprised because I first hadn’t wanted to read because of how Katniss says things, her POV and voice were a bit strange for me at first.

But I got used to it.

I have a full review for all three books in the trilogy here on the blog. But, today is the Throwback Thursday of THG because it’s been so long since I read this book, and because I felt like rambling a bit about it.

Spoiler Time Sunday: The Thing About Furuba is

The thing about Furuba is that you still watch/read it despite all these plots twists and pains…

Hi, dearies!

Welcome back to a Spoiler Time Sunday, which already has multiple entries, in case you want to spoil your fun or just know more about a favourite book, anime, show.

This Sunday will be for Furuba or Fruits Basket, which became a favourite of mine after watching about three episodes of the 2019 Anime Version of the manga, I was hooked, I was sold after the first episode even. The intro, I was there, in it.

Now, you see I am a fan of it, I like it. But I am a realistic person, and I know that if you look to close into things (shows, stories, character’s background) then you really get like: wow, seriously? Is that truly how it is?

So, today, I am doing that with Furuba because I enjoy rambling about these random things.

First off, this is my warning, there are spoilers as per the whole point of this blog post, spoilers ahead, this is my warning.

5 Time-Travel Dramas if you loved ‘Moon Lovers’

Did you enjoy Moon Lovers? Are you in for more time-travelling stuff? I sure was, so I looked around for other shows.

Hello, dearies!

As you know, Moon Lovers: Scarlet Heart Ryeo is one of my favourite KDramas, it stars IU and Lee Joon-Gi, two actors I have started to believe are top-notch and I would watch anything with them in it.

So, I was browsing around, checking other dramas that are similar because why not? And while The King: Eternal Monarch did came up as a suggestion is not 100% focused on ‘time travel’, I know, I have watched that one like four times, I really like it.

Also, spoiler into this blog post, Bon Appétit, Your Majesty, is not on the list, one because I didn’t know that was the plot of the story, and two I didn’t want to read anything else about and spoil it for myself further.

That said, here are 5 Time-Travel dramas for you if you loved Moon Lovers.

Be advised, I haven’t watched these, so I cannot say if they are the best thing ever. It is only a list of recommendation, and it acts as a list for me, too.

Beautiful Disaster: The Odd Queries that Made Me Laugh

“I knew the second I met you
that there was something about you I needed. Turns out it
wasn’t something about you at all. It was just you.”

Hello, everyone! 🤗

I know I shouldn’t laugh. But I did when I read some of the questions online about Beautiful Disaster.

So, I will answer this odd questions because it’s fun, and I like talking about books, more so the ones about the Maddox brothers.

Have you read this book? If you have not, then there might be spoilers ahead, this is the warning for spoilers. I’ll start.
