 At the top of the stairs, with another climb before coming to Itaewon..
Tents selling ethnic foods and souvenirs. Left:
World Cup soccer brought chefs and salesfolk from all over the world. I met an Ecuadorian Indian and several Pakistanis in these tents.

The Underground Market debouches onto the sidewalk. It's a subterranian shopping mall/bazaar. Stalls crowd the sidewalk in front of the stores.

 Street in Itaewon, where many expatriates and tourists shop in Seoul. Lots of shops carry antiques and handicrafts.
Yongsan USO, where my friends in the armed services usually hang out. Left:
