Faenstore – Souvenir & Gift Shop
Do you know that FootballFaentasium is the only place to buy Korean National Team’s jersey and have KFA official marking ???
That’s why there is a gift and souvenir shop located on the first floor where you can buy your favorite player’s named jersey, hoodies or t-shirts.
Coffee Shop at Football Faentasium
Not only that, there is also a football-themed coffee shop which is again a nice thing to try out.
You’d find out that the orders appear like the 2002 football worldcup teams. So each order is named as per a team and everytime that order’s turn comes, that team is show kicking out any other team and is shown on front. Sounds confusing, right? ?
