Korea Trip (Seoul) Part 2 -Where have I been

To view my itinerary for korea trip, click here.

This post is like a travel note for me, it will keep reminding me not to travel with wrong person again for my next trip. So last post I mentioned about skip meals everyday is not because we didn't bring enough of money or what, it is because one of my travel mate has 'princess syndrome', need us keep an eye on her, wake up at 6.30am but only managed to go out on 10am because she always dragged us. Just a brief introduction about her and perhaps if I have time I will write the original full story of this poor girl that caused us skip meals daily during our trip.

KLIA 2

Somehow, I really wish Malaysia have international airport over all the states like how Vietnam did. We stayed in KLIA 2 for 12 hours long because we took midnight flight from KL to Seoul. But time fly real quick because Yying and me busy to plan the trip and do some homework for the place we wish to visit. We didn't managed to take instagrammable picture at the airport because all of us look extremely tired and can't take a bath.

Incheon International Airport > Aibnb (Yeonhui Samgeori) > Hansot> Deoksugung > Seoul Plaza > Seosumun building > Goblin Filming Place > Cheongyeceon > Myeongdong Market > Airbnb

So the place we visited everyday is not following the original plan. First reason I've already mentioned just now. And the second reason is we didn't know Google Map is a restricted map in Korea. But we always found another attraction or good place to visit when we got lost.

Incheon International Airport is very big but if you follow the direction of signboard, it wouldn't have any problem. Follow signboard that write Airport Railroad and you can find your way to take Korail to city centre. Take Blue line (normal) will be more cheaper than Orange Line (express).

Remember to check your direction to destination first before you board on train.

I use one hour to investigate the house because our host isn't there. Not really like the room we've booked. The door lock is insecure, it can open by anyone using hair pin. But I'm impressed with Korea tech, this thing is used to adjust temperature of air conditioner and water heater.

Hansot sells cheap food and I really wish to go there for breakfast everyday. But if you going traveling with worm-headed people, don't ever think to eat on time.

The weather is good on the first day we arrived. We went to the wrong direction but reached at the right location. Deoksugung didn't inside our plan but we just go with the flow and made last minute changes.

You can see I Seoul U sign outside Deoksugung palace

Seosumun building is another great place to take photo beside Deoksugung.

CU > Everland (Royal Jubilee Carousel, Shooting Ghost, T express, Four Seasons Garden, Nymph Garden, Racing Coaster, Summer Water Fun (show), Aesop Umbrella Alley, Magic Tree, VR adventure horror maze, Raptor Ranger x PUBG, Space Tour 4D, Skywall, Thunder Fall) > Evermart > Hongik Univ Station Exit 4 > Airbnb

So on this day, our friend that came back from Korea reminded us to buy food and enter the park because you may spend RM25 to RM50 for one hotdog inside Everland. The food ain't cheap so we got ourself prepared before go in. We choose the right day to visit Everland Theme park because the weather is still windy.

You can go to the garden take pictures as much as you can if you lazy queue up for outdoor games.

Want to have real PUBG game experience? Remember to buy your ticket earlier as I'm quite regret for not doing homework before go to Everland. Raptor Ranger is currently having collaboration with PUBG in Everland Theme Park, PUBG fans please take note of this and don't miss it while you visit Everland.

Also, if you visit Everland during summer time remember to bring along your raincoats and join Summer Water Fun this event! Bring extra clothes to change so u can change it if you get wet.

Remember to bring sunscreen along on your theme park day.

It's a must to play T-express if you visit Everland.

Cheongyangni station > Nami Island > Mangu Station > Daiso > GS25 > Airbnb

If you taking public transport to Nami Island, you will drop by Cheongyangni Station to take subway to Gapyeong Station. This station have market in the morning, you can shop around before you depart and buy some cheap food to eat.

We spend whole day at Nami Island. Even tough there is another attraction but we wish to have a relax trip on this day and no rushing. The entrance fee for Nami Island is 13000krw.

We had our time picnic at Nami island. You can bring food along with you if you afraid will spend too much on the island.

A nice place for outdoor shooting but unfortunately my cable damaged and can't spam my album T.T

The King Hanbok > Gyeongbok Palace > Sechonjumak Oguem > Donui-dong > Ikseon Dong Hanok Village > Airbnb > Hongdae Shopping Street > Brand Market > Yeonhui-do > Airbnb

We had our hanbok rental experience at The King Hanbok. They are doing promotion with just 9900 krw for themed hanbok 4 hours rental and 4900krw for traditional hanbok. It's the cheapest compared to others costs 25000 krw for themed hanbok.

Ya, the sun is too bright until my eyes can't open. The hairdo services provided costs 5000krw and they just do simple braids for you. Not suggested short hair girls like me take hairdo service.
