South Korea - Part V
♥ 10:55 PM
Hello people.
Yesterday, I met up with QF an hour earlier before meeting the rest.
Walked around, ate and got myself a nice luggage tag :)
Then off we go to watch a drama produced by CHC.
And...! I get to see people whom I haven't seen for almost a year!!!
Grace, Alicia and Shamus tagged along,
with other people like Raymond, etc.
It was nice catching up with all of them :)

Now, on to the Korea trip. I shall overcome my laziness and finish it once and for all!!!
SEVEN - Seoul
This day was a pretty long one. Half of the time, we were shopping.
The streets of Seoul.
Haha! I saw this~!
Then, we stopped by at Changdeokgung palace. It's a beautiful place, with mountains and hills at the back of it.As usual, it was very windy = cold. This was the palace where the king once lived. The style of the buildings are of the Joseon Dynasty.
I like this. Those pillars seems endless. There was this little booth where you can try out the tradition costumes. Haha, auntie looks cute in it.
One of my fav. snacks!!! I can't really explain the taste, but the cover says its cheese flavored.
Some powerful person's home. Not sure who, but I think its some minister's? Then, we head off to the Ginseng place, where Mum spent a bomb and I was sooooooooo pissed >:(
Sigh, shall not talk abt it :(
Next was the amethyst factory.
Myengdong Shopping district! The whole street was dedicated to the shoppers. It was so crowded!
Then, we went to Itaewon, another shopping area. Not much photos cause we're too busy shopping.
Grilled beef. Korean restaurant are really generous with their servings. You can keep asking for buckets of beef!
After dinner, we went to watch an amazing performance called "Break Out"! It's a comedy breakdancing drama. Their dancing skills are O_O wow. The show was 1h1/2 long, so we reached the hotel late. Oh, what an exhausting day.
EIGHT - Seoul
I hate leaving :(
Last breakfast :( lol~ sounds like I'm on death row.
That day weather was misty and gloomy =\
My feelings were exactly the same.
Once breakfast was done, we went to a comestic shop to try out some products.
The salesperson gave us some lotion and told us to rub our hands.
Then my brother exclaimed, "why are there tissues appearing on my hands!"
LOLLLL, it was actually dead skin! HAHAHAAH
Oh, and we got some freebies :)
We dropped by at a mart where I bought chocolates and some biscuits (again).
We had to rush, or else we'll miss the flight (which i would love to)
Reached InCheon airport. AHHHHHH :(
*plays violin*
Then, we hugged and said goodbye to Mr. Park.
Thanks for taking care of us!~
Then, we saw this. AHAHA. Mum wants me to take a photo of him. She's nuts about him -_-
And I guess that's all =(
Overall, Korea is really enjoyable. I really had a blast there. Sigh, words cant' explain. I WILL go back there one day. WILLLL!
&when will you take me away on a balloon?
