While the demand for more delicious bread is on the rise in Korea, we will introduce you to a bakery that have been popular for decades among bread-lovers ─ the oldest bakery in Korea, "Taegeukdang."

For more than 70 years, this bakery has been filled with customers of all ages eager to taste the first batch of fresh baked bread, forming a snaking queue outside the store.

And that continues even until this day. What makes this bakery even more unique is that they serve their own Korean-style dessert menus and one of them is called the "Monaca Ice-cream."
