Seoul, Korea

This was during the exchange program to Busan year back.  

Long overdue post, haha. Writing travel post could really killing my eyes and brain. Too many pics, too many places had been to, but most of them I've forgotten the name :s

I'm gonna blog about the short trip to Seoul with the gang! =) 

The bus we took to Seoul is actually provided by the Korea Tourism Organization. 

Free Shuttle Bus from Seoul to Busan. As i know, they've extended this service, more information on K-shuttle. 

  

the evening sunset

Kinda comfy seat 

GwangHwaMun, here we are.

It's all abou Sejong history.

Ancient rain detector that we saw in drama.

We decided to overnight at Jimjilbang since we never try before.

Been so curious about this since every Korean drama film in this place. haha

Honestly, it was so shy! U have to be naked to walk from the locker to the sauna place. 

Here is the procedures that i hardly could remember. 

Firstly, make your payment at the counter and they'll provide you with a set of cloth and few towels. The size of towel is not really enough to cover you actually, haha. That's why no matter how, u gotta walk with naked! After that, put your shoe into the locker. And the locker to put ur bag is in the different place.

This is the shoe locker.
Bath before you go into the hot water pool, and their is sauna room inside. 
Massage service is provided as well. 

The ajima taught us how to fold the towel. i call it 'mehmehtou' haha

 Go to downstairs, there gloo (ice room) and a warm room to sleep.

Checked-in our hostel in the morning after left jimjilbang. Korea Backpacker.

Breakfast is provided, but of course this is self-made 1. 

Get ready, and start to tour around Seoul.

The vending machine in Subway station. Multi-choices! haha

They even selling books on vending machine! 

First station, Myeongdong! The shopping heaven!

I personally found that Busan is a better place to shop. Especially those shop around my uni. Staff are friendly and they give a lot of free gift and extra discount! And i think Myeongdong is a tourist place, all the shop become so 'tour-ish'. Therefore, i didn't shop much. And note that their staff mostly can speak Mandarin. 

Oh my ice-cream. I love this! tastes so GOOD! 

Taiwan 1 cannot compare to this definitely. 

Group photo! but w/o me, haha. Coz i'm the camera girl! lol

Acting cool huh?

Got my new bag! hee :D. costs 10000 won only.

Had our lunch in mall. Ramen, taste so Chinese food. :-) 

got xiaolongbao also :)

Chicken wrap selling at Myeongdong street. 

U got to try the Hanbok in the Tourism centre in Myeongdong! 

Various types of Hanbok provided. So fun 1. haha

Was waiting for the gorl to fill up their post card. 

Post card is free and they deliver to your respective address for free as well. 

Super Junior was the tourism ambassador of the year. 

We were invited to their Summer Sales Booth. And we got a instax pic! :)

Then we headed to NamSam tower. (Seoul tower)

The view of the Seoul city. I still suck at taking night scenery pic. lol

There was a show on the tower on that night. Kinda impressing 1.

Then we had our dinner! This is something like Uncle Jang. And better than Uncle Jang.
