Daejeon Cafe: Dongbang Coffee // 동방커피
It's been a while since I made a cafe post so I'm glad to finally be doing one again! Things have gotten super busy for me since I started playing volleyball and if I'm gone on the weekends that leaves me with almost no time for cafe hopping. But thankfully, yesterday I found some time…
