Who is Teddy Park? His birth name is Hong-Jun Park & he is the leader of the hip hop group 1TYM. They are signed under record label YG Entertainment and are currently no longer doing activities. Teddy became one of the producers under YGE and produced songs for label mates BigBang & 2ne1.
Teddy is truly an amazing man and I’m very impressed with his talent and knowledge. From being one of the biggest artists and first groups of YGE to becoming one of the main master minds behind the music; he doesn’t ever fail to impress me with his ideas and the tracks he produces for the record label. As you can tell, I’m a huge fan of his! The coffee shop is located in Hongdae, not too far from the old YG building.

Left Side: There is a sitting area by the window that offer “Beats by Dre” headphones for you to use. There is a long bench seating area and my favorite part, “Teddy’s Collection”. This is where you can buy Teddy’s merchandise & Mina Kwon’s paintings.
Right Side: You will see pastries, desserts and a lot of other goodies. There is also a little shelf towards the door where coffee mugs are signed for by the YG Artists when Teddy first launched the coffee shop.
To sum it up, even if you are not an YG stan or a KPOPPER, I HIGHLY recommend you go check out Teddy’s Twosome Studio Coffee Shop. The drinks are all amazing, the food is great and the atmosphere is truly lively! Music Lovers, Coffee Lovers, Art Lovers, this is definitely the place to go see and hangout at. You will not be disappointed at all. A little side note, when I have a hard time falling asleep at night, I will walk there to get a drink and just relax a bit. It is that homey!!
