Posting from a cafe (Ediya's flagship store) in South Korea: This article completely misses the point. Cafes in South Korea aren't about coffee so much as having a space to be in. Most of the young generation either live with their family or in very small spaces. The coffee is notoriously bad at almost every one of the coffee shops. However, they do offer free wifi and couches so you'll see them packed with everything from businessmen to students. While 'good coffee' is a marketing point that some newer cafes are using to differentiate themselves from the competition, it has never been the point of cafes here. You can find good coffee in Seoul, but you really have to search for it. I recommend The Pancake Epidemic (http://www.thepancakeepidemic.com http://www.thepancakeepidemic.com). I am not affiliated.
