There is actually lots to shop in Seoul... endless, i love Myeondong and shops at the Dongdaemun Market (not the open air market) and Sinchon and Ewha Wonans University Vicinity...
For Dongdaemum, get out at Dongdaemun Stdaium Stn ( line 2/4/5 exit 1) and look for shops like Migliore, Doosan Towers and Apm ( you can shop till 5am here) .....
as for ancient places...... not much into it.. sorry...
