~Day 3~
Dongdaemun // Lotte World
Super delicious Hoddeok I really miss this:''''-(
I still can't decide if the day or night view is prettier
Comet Express- the fastest/ best ride I've ever taken it felt like I could fly out from the seat anytime
On the swing~ We took it twice and felt so nauseous after gosh (╥﹏╥)
Chicken Mania
~Day 4~
CJ E&M // Hongdae
What I need is more pretty flowers by the road side of Singapore like in Korea really..
So we went to CJ E&M at dawn hoping to get into Mcountdown. It was so cold and I only brought shorts to korea.. At the end of queueing they only let 10 people in and I'm just like really? 10? Your building damn big only. Unfortunately we were the 18th people so we just scraped the idea and headed to Hongdae!!:)
Yeobkki Ddeokbokki
Spiciest food in my lifetime so far and probably my limit as well
As excited as we were for this, it wasn't much good. None of us bought anything except nail polishes lol??
~Day 5~
Ewha // Cheongdam dong
BeansBins Coffee
Patbingsoo No.2 (best)
Mango
On the subway to Cheongdam dong
Italian Food Opp JYP
So here's the story.. We headed to Cube Cafe so I could visit the place and buy my Beast Light stick Ver. 2(which I did YAY) but then we noticed fans sitting outside JYP and fangirl instincts told us they were there for a reason. So we had our dinner and then sat and wait where the crowd was. Sure enough, I don't remember the sequence but we saw 2pm's Wooyoung/ Nichkhun/ Chansung/ Junho, 2am's Jin Woon and Miss A's Min as well. And then WE SAW GOT7 *Screams* Like Jackson came out to buy something and we were just walking beside him for quite a while and I just really wanna relive that moment ahhhhh and we saw Mark and Bam bam like they both wanted to approach us but damn that manager had to "pull" them away. So like sitting outside JYP became one of the best parts of this trip for all of us.

And then we headed back to Cube Cafe for a Green Tea Latter before heading back to the hotel.
~Day 6~
Times Square // Hongdae // Cheongdam Dong
We met with Jin Ju and Kyung Jin!<3
JJim Ddak!! So delicious. You can't see but there was Mandu/ ddeok/ glass noodles in that crazy deli brown sauce.
Patbingsoo No.3
Green tea/ Original
Back to Stylenanda for the photo booth
Ugly tutorial level 1-4
Mixed Berries
Im definitely coming back here for other flavors
Second night to Cube/ JYP hahaha #nolife #abit
And I had some alone time at Cube Cafe while the girls were sitting outside JYP hahaha I loved it
if I lived in Korea I would study here everyday its so quiet (just saying)
We met this super funny/ nice fan of Got7 outside JYP, Dani. She studies in Korea university and she's from America. She's such a successful fangirl I TELL YOU. It's to the point where BamBam remembers her name okay. She's walked with him back to their dorms before and they talk like they're friends. Basically its pretty common for the fans to walk them home if they're not taking the vans so yeah.. On this day we saw the rest of Got7 and Sunmi as well..She's so petite and adorable signing for her fans.. And then we saw Btob's Minhyuk and Ilhoon and again, a few fans walked with minhyuk back to their dorm. It was like bitter sweet for me because what the hell Im seeing Cube artistes but Beast is in Japan *cries*
Anyway Im really loving Beast's comeback. Goodluck is just on replay its so good(dance/ song/ lyrics/ concept/ everything) and their comeback just gets better every single time. Can't wait to receive both the Black and white Vers of the album and yes I do need both if you're wondering.
~Day 7~
Myeongdong
OUR ICE CREAMS ARE THE SAME HEIGHTS BY THE WAY DONT GET IT WRONG
After dinner, Ji eun packed and left for her grandma's house for another week's stay in Korea and it was a hard goodbye I'm missing you now!!!:'-(
Then Ame and I went to spend out last night in Myeongdong..We sat by the window in Holly's Coffee and had Patbingsoo No.3.
And on this final day of shopping in Myeongdong I chanced upon a Cruciani and I was so crazy happy !!! Like gosh for how long I've wanted one and its so inaccessible in singapore but LOOK at the full range they have here in Korea. I got the blue grey one HEHE Im still so happy and my heart is still in that shop okay.
~Day 8~
Leaving Korea
The Barista helped us with our luggages into the shop and really made my morning.
Off to Incheon Airport
The day I left, Beast returned to Seoul! Gotta love them for playing so hard to get right?>:-( I'll see you up close one day Yoon Doo Joon.
Patbingsoo No.4
Oreo
These are the stuff I got for myself! Myself only! Together with everything for everyone else the luggage was 18kg. It's really not a lot because shopping there is not cheap. Clothes are at least 20(they're of quality though) Of course, It's still more interesting than in Singapore. Because they have many of their own brands (like Aland omgomg I would fly to Korea just for you) so its unlike Singapore where you only see Mango/ Zara/ H&M/ F21 in every direction. This post took like 5 hours Im not even kidding. It's so hard to recall what we did from day to day! I hope I didn't miss anything. This trip was really such a great experience..Only eight days but I could have a sense of what the people and life in Korea's like. I am definitely visiting again (because ALAND) okay no I really miss every street/ cafe we walked past and I still haven't had enough of korean food so see ya soon KOR!
ahh i love your blog! im going to korea in the fall (hopefully), and i can't wait to visit aland if i go! :)
ReplyDeleteWow you made my dayyy!! Hahaha yes definitely go to Aland! :>
