Hello Hello!
Got back from Seoul, Korea a few days back.
and let me tell you I am seriously missing Seoul and its weather now.
To sum up the entire trip?
It was a very pain..pain...pain in the legs and the shoulders.
Imagine walking around more than 8 hours a day with two blisters
on your feet which apparently just can't freaking pop
no matter what I did them -.- I swear it didn't wanna pop.
I rather it pop than walking around on them feeling the pain.
I rather just feel the pain at one go.
Stupid blisters, not that it helped walking non stop
with stairs climbing and walking up hills.
God dammit.
Honestly, the only part I like was actually shopping,
going to KLIVE and eating.
I was super happy when we landed.
I mean. I am in a place where I have wanted to go since forever
and I was finally there.
Looking through the car window and looking at everything.
I mean everything.
It made me smile,
even though I was half deaf from the plane ride
and also being kinda sickly feeling..
I was just happy to be in Korea.
Thrilled actually.
I just kept smiling while looking out from the car window.
but then.....
I guess it wasn't a nightmare..
but it wasn't exactly a dream either?
but really it was good.
but this is my first trip to Seoul.
At least I know what to do and such
so I can avoid in my next trip.
First thing first, definitely avoid going places that takes HOURS to get there.
Other than EVERLAND of course.
We went to The Garden of Morning Calm.
That would be my first and last visit honestly.
It's not my thing, seeing flowers....
I guess I went there and that would be it.
No more next time for sure.
Kinda sad cause we didn't get to visit VIVA POLO,
EXO Chanyeol's mom restaurant..
cause it was so far, I decided to drop it.
Travelling already waste so much time.
Also kinda sad that I didn't get to visit EXO Kai's sister cafe KAMONG.
Hopefully there would be a next time.
Honestly, all I remember about the trip was my aching feet.
Not to mention I have a mild bunion foot..which fucking hurts.
You have no idea how much it hurts and how much I endure the
pain the entire 8 days. Till my legs were swollen on the last day.
My shoes were so tight when I put my feet in. gosh.
Getting not enough sleep...
and the room was so small, you can barely fit 3 suitcases.
and if you pull out the mattress, don't even mention about the space to walk.
Yes, I have a lot of complaints.
Loads actually.
It didn't seem like a holiday at first
but seeing that the fact I am in the country which I love most
bare with it...........
Currently missing the food from Seoul.
Really.
I am craving for the HUGE mandu (dumpling) and the bulgogi bimbimpap.
Gosh it was so good I shall never forget about that ever.
and, AND. The damn instant spicy ramen.
DAMMIT.
Wish we had extra time.
I really didn't get to shop more
and I regretted not buying some stuff.
I should just buy it, instead of thinking how heavy it is or
coverting the price to RM.
Like should have been '"screw it, I'm in seoul, heck, I'm getting it"
Wish I bought more albums and kpop merchandises too.
*all the regret in the world*
It was a great great view from N SEOUL tower at night.
Wish they clean the windows though. So damn dirty.
The street heading to Myeondong station coming down from
our Guesthouse.
At Ihwadong, Ihwa Muriel Village.
It was really pretty, filled with arts and muriel around the village.
Personal favorite muriel.I don't know why, I mean it's just a thumb.
But I'm guessing I am in love with the colour combo and how it stands out.
I also love this one! Cutie patooties little huskies.
Went to Lotte Departnment Store at Nowon to watch TAZZA 2
because of T.O.P
Honestly, seeing him half naked wasn't that...appealing.
But the movie was pretty good actually, just based on Korean and no subs..
LOL manage to understand half of it.
Thought we could at least meet T.O.P and the rest of the cast...
but ...we were unlucky, as usual.
Instead we met the directors/producers.
Headed to Hangang River to actually watch the Banpo Raimbow Fountain..
But technically, we got lost..
so we ended up just sitting at the side..
enjoying the view and seeing people and cyclist go by.
Went to the COEX AQUARIUM in COEX MALL.
Pretty interesting honestly.
Loads of good concepts and other animals not just aquatic animals.
I'm impressed. Seeing that I love water and animals under water.
The jelly fish was soooooo pretty.
Watching them swim and change colour was fascinating.
After the trick eye museum (which I don't have any pictures of me, cause I'm...still waiting)
but we went to the ice museum right after and ...
we didn't expect it to be like SUPER cold.
and they only gave us like a tiny jacket which barely covered us.
We were cursing right at the point when we all stepped in.
BUT! I swear the ICE throne with the skull caught my eye.
If I could have a throne, THAT would be mine.
SOOOOO DAMNNNN MINEEEEE!!!
It was pretty fascinating seeing all the ice sculpture.
They even have a bathroom and kitchen.
AMAZEBALLS.
Selfie at the end of Ihwa Muriel Village.
Lunch at Lotte Department Store in one of the restaurants..
Which I forgot what it was called.
But it was delicious!
The tteokbokki was super spicy but damn syok.
Went to Big Bang Seung Ri's cafe!
Had patbingsoo. It was alright.
I thought it would be pretty amazing..but I guess
I had such high expectations...meh.okay.
Dinner (at I forgot which area we were in)
I think somewhere in Apgujeong? or something.
We had chicken! thought of having fried chicken but we ended up with this.
It was good actually.
But then I realize we really didn't eat fried chicken in Seoul.
Sigh.
Went to BAU HAUSE DOG CAFE.
DOGS GALORE.
For a girl who never own a pet and LOVEEEE animals
this was heaven.
All the dogs were so cute!
The husky was my favorite..it was huge!
This little poodle came up too me and cuddle up next to me.
Yes you can barely see it in the picture, seeing that I am huge.
But it was so cute, cuddling and sleeping next to me.
wish I could bring it home. It was sad that I left :(
THIS was the spicy ramen I was talking about.
IT WAS AMAZING OKAY!
Wish I could filled a whole suitcase with only this.
Went to visit JYP. *had to take a selfie*
well because *cough, cough*
Came to CUBE STUDIOS right after passing JYP and CUBE.
It was...smaller than I expected..maybe because it's in pictures LOL
yes a selfie, proof I was there, THANK YOU.
Ah yes...JJANGPONG AND JJANGJANGMYEON!!
Gosh I love the jjangjangmyeon T__T
After that, we head of to SM ENTERTAINMENT!
There were fan waiting actually.
but for a fact, I know EXO or any other SM artist was not in the building.
They all had their schedule.
Spotted WINNER subway ad at some station which I forgot.
I even spotted EXO CHEN"s Birthday subway ad at Myeondong station!
and also Lee Jong Suk birthday ad and also Amber F(x) subway ad for their birthdays!
and JYJ and UKNOW ad also. GOSH there were so many!
Visited TWOSOME+ coffee studio.
It was as cool as I imagined it to be actually. LOL
The LEVEL 3 of the cafe. Pretty cool with all MINA KWON's art hanging around.
Personally LOVE this art.
Of course, YG ENTERTAINMENT.
Saw some staff and manager but it was thrilling to even be there.
Full with cars! but NO GD's car.
Yes, totally a must right? LOL
Head to EVERLAND! it was amazinggggggggggg!!!
Wish I could ride all the rides T__T
I really need a partner who has the balls to go on rides with me.
Sucks to be alone on this kinda thing.
ALL HAIL THE KING AND QUEENS. LOL
Went to ZOOTOPIA! loveeee it!
Didn't get to see the white tigers though.
But was so cool nevertheless!!
Went to a Sea Lion show too!
SOOOO CUTE and FUNNY!
I like taking selfies with skeletons. They fascinate me. A LOT.
Wish I could bring back those to decorate my room. LOL
At the ROSE garden at EVERLAND.
It was gorgeous but minus the fact that the sun was FUCKING blazing hot.
Fireworks were so pretty!!
Wheee~ Went to the Rail Park too!!
Probably my last time heading there.
So damn far and you need to get on a bus to get there.
URGH.
Once is enough.
Such a waste of time travelling.
This spicy chicken rice was seriously spicy at every bite.
Went to LOTTE FITIN!
unfortunately didn't get to visit the Krunk Gallery cause it closed when we came out.
DAMMIT.
But the KPOP HOLOGRAM CONCERT was UHMAZINGGGGG~~~
GD...GD EVERYWHERE. HAHAHAHA
EXO...EXO EVERYWHERE!
Too Damn Cool.
Can't selfie with the real ones, selfie with the standees. THANKS.
The tall dancer was cute :3
Went to NAMI ISLAND
another destination which I think ONCE is enough.
Gosh.
Totally perfect for a wedding photo shoot. LOL
Went to SE7EN yeolbong restaurant.
I thought it was a different kinda chicken...but..yea well.
I give it a 5 over 10.
wasn't up to my liking.
Went to the owh so ever famous Gyeonbokung palace.
Pretty awesome also.
Went to Bukchon Hanok Village.
It's amazing how people are still staying in those houses!
AHHHHH THE BULGOGI BIMBIMPAP AND MANDU!!
At SAMSYIGIEL (god knows how to spell that)
PACKED with people right inside insadong.
This dude is so cute!! and so fun! the ice cream trick.
Had some toast thing...which wasn't exactly that....nice.
At Myeondong, filled with Koreans!
Ice Cream with Honey comb.. NICE!!
Ahhhhh~ Tteokbokki and other stuff
Chicken teriyaki on stick!
Thanks to the GUESTHOUSE for giving us this.
It's so obvious which is me.
The amount of shopping.
Wish I got more.
Meh.
Overall great experience,
lack of sleep,
leg blisters,
leg swollen,
knee blue black,
shoulders aching,
