Translation needed: Han’s ???

Posted on May 9, 2011 by Sarah B.

I’ve driven or walked by this nice door many times, and I’ve always wondered what it says or what is its purpose. It’s on California between 10th and 11th Avenues.

Is it a business? If you know, leave a comment with the answer!

I don’t speak Korean but I can read the characters. It says “Mi Yong Sil” which, using Google, appears to mean “hairdresser”.

I asked someone who knows Korean. Apparently it’s a hair salon?

I have wondered as well. I had always hoped it was some secret and delicious korean BBQ place… Oh well.

A hair salon? Mr. and Mrs. Solo have fallen on hard times.

There has long been a fine wood carving/woodworking establishment of that name in Chinatown with a very similar logo. Perhaps the shop is downtown and Mr. Han’s residence is in the inner Richmond?
