Jennie found it on YouTube during her bread tour in Yeonhui-dong. Since opening in 1978, it has been in the same place for over 40 years. There are many delicious breads such as the signature bread “Baby Buttocks” and “Sweet Red Bean Bread 1978,” which has kept the same flavor since 1978. There are many breads that give off a deep flavor when you take a bite, but the “Potato Bread” recommended by JENNIE is particularly savory for its fluffy texture.

The Russian Legation was built in a Renaissance style in 1890. Russian architect, A. J. Scredin Sabatine designed the structure. In 1895, during the Joseon dynasty, the Eulmisabyeon Incident took place as a show of force by the Japanese.

Empress Myeongseong-hwanghu was emerging as a strong figure in Korea at a time when a power struggle between Japan, China, Russia, and other powers were taking place. Japanese Minister, Miura Goro saw her as a threat and ordered her assassination. After hearing news of the Empress’s assassination, King Gojong and the Crown Prince sought refuge in the Russian Embassy for one year.

After 1945, the Soviet Union took over the embassy until it was almost completely destroyed by a fire during the Korean War [1950~1953]. The only remaining parts of the building are the tower and basement areas. The building was restored to its current condition in 1973 and is now enjoyed by many as a public park.
