See You Again Seoul~


I'm writing this entry way too late. =S I went to Seoul again last December mainly to watch YG Family Concert. But since we're there, we also went to some of the places we weren't able to go before.

Upon arrival, it's night so we checked in our things and went out to have a late dinner in our favorite eating place, Kimbab Heaven. =) We also ordered our favorite meal, Cheese Tonkatsu, Kimchi Jjigae, Bulgogi and Kimbab.

The next day is the concert day! ^^ Bringing gifts with us to meet our friend who will be giving us the tickets, we met her and she gave us gifts in return! 2NE1 hoodies!!! Love them!!! When we checked out tickets, they're VIP tickets! I love that girl, she's really amazing! (I know I'm using way too much exclamation points but that day is just a superb day for us, for real! ^^) Before the concert, we went to Apgujeong to look for Yoochun's Time Out Gelato and has some really nice ice cream (yeah ice cream in winter, LOL! XD). Then off to the concert venue! ^_^

Third day is shopping in our favorite shopping place, Myeongdong. It's where we buy our CDs, cosmetics, clothes, and eat at our favorite dak galbi place, Yoogano, yummy!!! ^^ Next we went to Myeongdong Cathedral, our first time to go to church in Korea. Next stop is the Seoul Tower. We visited the Teddy Bear Museum there and it's so cute! They recreated different scenes from the historical era and the modern era using the cute teddy bears.

For our fourth day, we decide to just walk around Seoul. We went to Cheonggyecheon Stream and walked the whole way to see the places it crosses. That sure is one long stream! LOL! =P We stopped by a palace, Sejong center, and end up in Myeongdong and Dongdaemun to do more shopping. ^^

And for our last day in Seoul, we meet our friend again and she treat us to lunch in School Food. Yummy food around Hongik, I would love to go back there again. I think that's the restaurant that Khun and Kwon ate when they were planning for their song for their wives. After that, it's time for us to leave. In the airport, we had Baskin Robbins since we didn't get to have some since the Baskin Robbins branch beside our favorite eating place is gone.

There goes another Seoul trip for me. Simple but fun! A pure fangirl trip with no frills and no hang ups. ^^ I feel so blessed that I get the chance to go on trip like this. Thank you Lord! Until my next trip. =)

Korea - White Christmas~

Image
Yes, I went to South Korea again! I went to Korea in early 2009 and again last December 24-29, 2009. Twice in a year, now you know how I love the place. ^^ For the first time in my life, I had a white Christmas! =) I joined a tour again, this time going with my younger brother and my two girl friends. Day 1 - it's Christmas eve, we arrived in Incheon international airport around 6PM, went straight for dinner. We had a yummy dinner, it's pork bulgogi! ^^ After dinner, we checked in our hotel in Incheon and had a good rest for a busy day the following day. Day 2 - Theme park day, we went to Everland. I'm not really that excited anymore since I've been to Everland before. Just like before, I really enjoyed the Snow Buster! It's where you sled down a man made snow slope, super fun! ^^ Too bad it rained that day after we had lunch so we had to wear rain coats and walk around wet grounds. =S We had dinner in a local restaurant having mushroom hot pot wit...

Annyeong Haseyo Seoul! ^^

And now for the second part of my trip, "on our own". No more tour guide, no more planned day, it's all on our own the next 9 days. We don't speak Korean, we understand very very little Korean, the rest of our trip was pretty interesting! ^^ From Itaewon, the last stop of our tour, we took a cab to the guesthouse we will be staying. That night is our first Big Bang - Big Show concert. My first time in Seoul Jamsil Olympic Stadium and it's not as big as I thought. But the stage is impressive, it has a lot of room for effects and props. It was my very first Korean concert and I have to say, the Korean fans are really admirable. They sing, they chant, they dance with the artist. No artist in that stage will feel tired with all the support they are getting from the audience. I talked about my Big Show experience in my other blog >> Big Bang - Big Show . Next day (sat), we went out for lunch, my first Korean food that's really tasty, Dak Galbi...

South Korea Tour 2009

Image
It's a dream come true! To experience winter at least once in my life (because I live in a tropical county and we only have two seasons here in the Philippines, rainy and sunny) and this year, I did! I included a ski trip to South Korea in my 2009 wish list and I'm so happy that at least one of them came true! God is really really good!!! So good that the first thing I thought of in my mind upon coming out of the airport in Korea is "Thank You Lord!". I spent two whole weeks in South Korea. The first five days is part of a tour group and the next nine days were on our own. I'll be writing about my tour on this post and our adventures and "misadventures" on my next post. There were good and not-so-good experiences but since there are very few not-so-good ones, I can easily forget about them and keep all the very very nice memories I had in this trip. ^_^ 1st day, we arrived at Incheon airport past 5AM. Thank God we got to the meeting place...
