[KR] Seoul - Day 5

The whole of day 5 was spent in Everland! Even though we spent the whole day there, time didn't seem to be enough for us to cover all the rides! The amusement park is so huge that we actually spend most of the time walking around!

Gimbap for breakfast. It is bought from a shop inside the train station. I love how we are allowed to eat freely in the trains. This is something that can't be done in Singapore, sadly!

The distance between Hongdae to Everland is not near. We had to take a train and switch 2 buses before we could reach Everland. The whole journey took about 1.5 hours.

Everland
Address:
199, Everland-ro, Pogok-eup, Cheoin-gu, Yongin-si, Gyeonggi-do

Directions:
Gangnam Station (line 2, Sinbundang) Exit 10
Take bus 5002
Take the shuttle bus to Everland

(Via KTO)

TIP: When you see bus 5002 approaching, rush to the bus so that you can get a seat as you will be on the bus for at least 45 minutes. Luckily, the bus stopped right in front of us, so we all have a seat!

Always check Everland's website before heading to Everland. They always have promotions for tourists. Their promotions are even better their KTO's/BNBHERO's coupon promotion. As it was the rose festival, tourist with any item that is red will have their ticket at 30% off original price!

First ride of the day, T-EXPRESS. I swear I was really scared while queueing (I had constant urge to pee). I guess it was our lucky day as we managed to take the first ride of the day! The waiting time (about 15-20 minutes on average) for rides in Everland isn't as bad as the waiting time in USS! 

Miss the time when Singapore has these mini melts too! Am I the only one who remembers this???



Took the safari bus and we went on an "adventure". The animals are free to roam around in this area and they were seen crossing paths with our vehicle with no fear!

A sky-ride inside the amusement park. That's how big the park is!

Took this crazy ride as well! #proud

Finally managed to take group shots with the help of strangers and staffs in Everland. We actually asked different people to help us with our photo because having one person taking multiple photos of us is embarrassing. Haha.





Caught Big Bang and 2NE1's hologram concert and it blew my mind. Especially Big Bang's. The effects were so real that we thought Big Bang was really performing right in front of us. The power of technology... is DAEBAK!

Last ride of the day - Pirate ship - This made everyone uncomfortable, the want-to-puke feeling which SUCKS. T_T

Took bus 5002 back to Gangnam and cabbed back to Hongdae. Cabbing around is actually an cheaper alternative if you are in a group of 4. Glad that we did not meet any difficult drivers during our trip!

Had our first Korean BBQ of the trip for our dinner at almost 12AM!

Meat ordering in BBQ shops are in portions. I think this was 2 or 3 portion. May look little but it managed to feed all 4 of us!
