Tucked away in Jung-gu, Seoul, Chungmuro Printing Street has long been at the heart of Korea's printing industry, working hand in hand with the neighboring Euljiro Printing Street. Countless print shops, both small and large, line these streets, blending traditional commercial printing with cutting-edge digital technology. A stroll through this district offers visitors a fascinating glimpse into Seoul's lesser-known industrial heritage.
서울 중구에 자리한 충무로 인쇄골목은 을지로 인쇄골목과 어깨를 나란히 하며 오랜 세월 한국 인쇄 산업을 이끌어온 곳입니다. 크고 작은 인쇄소들이 촘촘히 모여 있어 상업 인쇄부터 최신 디지털 인쇄까지 다양한 기술이 공존하는 모습을 볼 수 있습니다. 전통과 첨단이 뒤섞인 이 골목을 걷다 보면 서울의 숨겨진 산업 문화를 색다르게 경험할 수 있습니다.
