    About the data

    • The data is the subset of map-eligible stores from the Seongsu store ledger v0.4 researched by our team (as of 2026-10-27 22:34 KST). It is not a count of all stores or unique brands in Seongsu.
    • The 78 base-map stores had their operation cross-checked online and their address, location and operating form confirmed. This is not an on-site visit, a phone check or a live opening check.
    • “Incl. map listings” (477 stores) adds stores whose operation is indicated by a map service and includes the 78 base stores. With both layers on, each store appears once. The 2 temporary and long-term temporary stores are shown separately.
    • Stores that share one location are not merged; pick one from the list.
    • The opening year is for the current location and current brand. “Not researched” means not looked into yet; “Researched, not confirmed” means researched but no year was found. If the month or day is unknown, only the year is shown.
    • Date evidence (year, month, day) and evidence that the store actually opened are shown separately. Announced plans are not counted as openings.
    • Sources show only the type, outlet, publication date and access date. Records can cover the same event more than once, so the number of sources is not a number of independent confirmations. Dates are in KST.
    • A missing perfume or vintage tag does not mean the store was checked and found not to be one.
    • This is kept separate from the Pop-up Archive and Pop-up Spaces. A store location does not indicate that a space is available to rent.
    • The 116 confirmed permanent openings by year are not added to Seoul district statistics or pop-up records. A year missing from the list means no record, not zero openings. Past stores that have since closed may be included, and stores not on the map are not named.
