[KR] Seoul Again - Day 6 & 7

Jjimdak in a restaurant in Hongdae. Pardon the lighting because we were in a room with green lights. 


Cheesy fried chicken


Visited the Trick Eye Museum which was full of photo opportunities but i felt that it was a one-time experience kind of thing. The ticket came with a free visit to the Ice museum too.

*Trick Eye Museum: 20, Hongik-ro 3-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul














I don't know who's  this random ahjussi but he came up to me and asked for a photo together?!?!


Featuring a small game area too


Ice Museum which was really COLD!


Had our tea-break at the Hello Kitty Cafe. Food was horrible!

*Hello Kity Cafe: 364-14, Seogyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, Korea


Sweet Monster to make up for the previous disaster. Soft serve was on point, very smooth. Popcorn was crunchy too!


Our last dinner in Seoul @ James Cheese Back Ribs. We had to wait for around 20 mins during dinner hour. My mum commented that this was her favorite meal of all. More info here!





Arranged a car ride with our host to send us to the airport in the wee hours to catch our flight and this concludes our Seoul trip. Can't wait to be back to explore more places and share my experiences on Seoul again!

[KR] Seoul Again - Day 5

Visited the Nam Dae Mun market early in the morning! A pity that it was pouring and we had to hold our umbrella around. Alternatively, you can purrchase an umbrella for 2000 won too, alot of shops are selling them!

*Nam dae mun: 21, Namdaemunsijang 4-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul

Alot of street food along the way. Featuring the Red bean bun which was literally smoking hot! 

Dumplings~ 

Hotteok which we didnt like. Maybe we bought from a wrong store because it was really oily?

Lunch at Myeong dong's Bon juk. Huge serving of porridge which is more suitable for 2. They had this "rule" whereby each person have to order a portion of porridge each, no sharing allowed. Nobody could finish their serving and we wasted quite alot of porridge. Not reccomended!

Milky bee for dessert after some shopping! A+ for their appearance but tastewise was just average.

*Milky bee: 11, Myeongdong 8ga-gil, Jung-gu, Seoul 04536, South Korea

Left the family and embarked on a solo adventure to watch Music Bank! I was so elated when i manged to get tickets from KTO. The journey was tough since i didn't know my way there and i didn't have internet connection so i depended on the kind locals on telling me how to walk there.

Sneaked shot of F(X) and the MCs - Park Bo Guem & Irene 


The benefit of getting tickets from KTO was that after the programme, we had a chance to take group photo with the artiste! With Twice - The only group i knew among all the artiste we took group pictures with.

Walked to the train station with the help of 2 fellow Singaporeans who got the tickets through KTO too. Bought this choco pie from the GS25 in the station to munch on, on the journey back home. Favorite thing to do in Korea is to eat on the train since we don't have the luxury to do so in Singapore!
