A trip to Korea.
day 7 :
Freaking rushing day as heard from the tour guide that its the planned day for the largest strike in Korea leading tons and tons of people. Had morning call at 7.20 and left for breakfast at the Ginseng Chicken Shop in the previous day. Met Shao ting there too. Hahha. Freaking coincidence to meet twice in Korea. Heard that hers in also a 8 day trip which means that we would be taking the same flight back to Singapore. Hahha. Freaking cool to meet someone you know on a trip. Trips to shops like Korean Ginseng Showroom, Amethyst Gem Factory and The Face Shop for some knowledge and buying if you want to. Then travelling to the Korean Traditional & Cultural Activities where we learnt how to make kimchi and made it with our own hands. Think that it was freaking cool as love kimchi and did something like a cooking lesson during a holiday trip like that. Hahha. Tried on the traditional Hanbok Costume too. Did had some pictures in it and freaking had fun with the people around choosing the colours to mix and stuff. Went to the Tteok Traditional Rice Cake Museum too. Similar to all museums, it shows the different types of Tteok stuff in different festivals and different times in the past. Think that Tteok had changed to more colourful and smaller in size in the sense compared to the past. Went to the Cheonggyecheon Stream for the city bike that will travel around the city area for the sight of the buildings and shops. Last destination would be Myeongdong Shopping Street. Only with an hour to shop as needed to rush off the city area before the strike get serious before 6pm. Went back to hotel after dinner of grilled fish in Japanese style.
day 8 :
Freaking short day also with 2 destination to go. Firstly is the Sinchon Ladies Street with lots of fashion stuff mainly for the ladies based on the name of the street. Walked around for about 2 hours and bought some accessorises and few t-shirts. Then moving onto the Local Provision Shop for the last fighting shopping of local goods and stuff. Went to the airport after that and waited to board the flight back to Singapore. Had lunch at the airport and met Shao ting there too. Hahha. Took the flight and now back here in Singapore !! Hahha.
Ended the stuff that happened in Korea. Yeah !! Korea Rocks and is really a nice place to go !!
