-Cat Cafe
Got another 1 day before we went back to Malaysia. uuu~ so sad. I really want to stay here for a long time and explore all things in here. Maybe next time. Pray for me, guys! I want to be here again. We departed from guesthouse at 9am to Namsan Tower. To go here, we stopped at Myeongdong station line 4 and took Exit 3 to Namsan Tower Cable Car.
While walking here, there was a girl who worked at the cosmetic shop known as The Saem. She gave us free masks then we won't take it since yeah you know if you take it, then you need to walked inside their shop. So we really want to go Namsan tower ASAP coz we got another places to visit. She forced us to walked inside. We can't do anything and just wandering around the shop. That shop is not that large so she followed us and explained some skin care products then she forced us to buy the cosmetic set. Which cost for 50,000won. Ergh! that's too expensive and we need to buy souvenier for our family yet she told us to buy this cosmetic set. I said "we really don't have money right now and we need to go to Namsan tower". But she still forced us like hell then she offered us, if we bought this skin care set, then she will give a lot of The Saem's sample. We be like... why we need these samples coz both of us already used another skin care product. I used face shop product whereas my friend used the skin care that specially for sensitive skin.We want to walked out from here, but at the same time, we felt sympathy. So, as final result and I'm too tired too debated with that girl, so yeah we paid for the skin care set. Such a waste! From that day, I got that fobia when saw any The Saem's shop or product. (hahahah too dangerous for me).
Okey, continue to Namsan Tower story. We went there by walking. So again, please wear comfortable shoes if you want to go here by walking coz you need to walk on the hilly road. After walked out from Exit 3, make sure you meet seven eleven convenient store infront you. If you already found it then walk ahead till arrive at Pacific Hotel. Choose the right side alley and continue walking. You will see the second seven eleven convenient store at the right side alley that I wrote just now. Continue walking straight until find a small junction where you need to turn right briefly. After that, turn left before continue going straight. The next part will be more tiring coz the road getting more uphill. Just keep walking until reach to Namsan Cable Car Station. Okey guys, you already arrived to Namsa Cable Car Station. Not the Namsan Tower.(heheheh gotcha!). To reach Namsan Tower you need to but ticket to ride the cable car. It's better to buy for round trip which cost 6,300won. After that, wait for the cable car to come. The worker will assist you while you ride the cable car. So don't worry, you won't fall from the cable car. It takes 10 mins to arrived to Namsan Tower. As you already know, there are lot of padlock that have been locked by some tourist while there visiting Namsan tower. I got no intention to make one coz yeah I kinda lazy for this thingy. We went into the Namsan Tower. Since we already bought the ticket thru online so we just brought the ticket then showed to the worker. We need to ride an elevator. Before that, they will asked us to make some pose coz they want to take our photo. After ride the elevator, they will showed us the photo that they already took just now.(Kinda fast right?). But we won't buy it cuz we really need to save our money at that time. Tbh, there was nothing in the Namsan Tower. All its has only binoculars to look for beautiful view of Seoul from highest floor of Namsan tower. I thought it's free since we already paid for the ticket. Hell no. You need to put 500won if you want to used that binocular. We didn't used it coz yeah I'm not to excited or really want to see the view thru binocular. Then they also sell some souvenier up there. Kinda expensive but if you want to buy it, just buy. Okey? We stay there bout 20 mins then we went to the elevator and ride it to go to the first floor which is the lobby of Namsan Tower. In my opinion, I won't encourage y'all to enter this tower coz there's nothing in here. It's not too interesting as I expected. Tbh, places outside the tower are more interesting and got beautiful view.

This is one of my photo at Namsan Tower. Look at those padlocks. So beautiful.
Finish for Namsan Tower. We went to Bukchon Hanok village. It's a traditional korean place and you can see a lot of tourist and citizens wearing hanbok instead of Gyeongbokgung area. There are a lot of favourite spot for us to take photos but unfortunately I can't find one. I dunno why maybe my eyes a little bit tired at time. (muahaha just joking). However, it's still a resident area. So you need to keep quiet and don't make any noise that can disturb the resident. Oh! don't ever dare to enter the house. Please take care your manner while visit here. Korean people are so sensitive with manner. I really love with the way they built the house. It's so vintage and I hope to own one of these houses. (So that mean's I need to married with korean guy?) . We had a churos while walking here. It's been a long time I'm not eat churros. Last time, I eat this thing during my internship days. Then I didn't bought it till the day I eat it again in Seoul.There are two ways to reach here:
1) Go to Anguk station line 3 and take Exit 2 then walk straight.
2) Go to Gyeongbokgung Palace station line 3 and take Exit 5. Walk for 10-15 mins along the stone wall of Gyeongbokgung Palace to the starting point of Samcheongdong walkway.

Next destination is Namdaemun again! yeah we went to Namdaemun to bought some souveniers for our friends and fam. Then we headed to Myeongdong. Namdaemun to Myeongdong is not so far. We went there and had our late lunch at Busan Jib restaurant. It's a halal restaurant. There are many Malaysian eat in here. No wonder they love eat here. The kimchi is sooooo delicious! Seriously, it's the most delicious kimchi that I ever had in Seoul. Ahjumma jjang! Eat there make me feels like eating homemade meal. I recommended this restaurant to all of you. After that, we went to Cat cafe since my friend really want to go there. Know what, all cats there were so fat and cute! But we can't touched them so sudden coz they can get shock then attack you. So becareful while playing with cats. There are some cats that wear chain with different colour. Some color means these cats can't be disturbed. Let it alone and don't follow them or you will be attack by their sharp claws. The tickets to enter here is not that expensive I think. It's 8 000won per person including beverages. As usual, I choose orange juice! Before you play with them, the worker on duty will explain the rules and regulation in the cafe. Don't worry, they good in english language. We spend like an hour,then we went to Myeongdong street to find some street food. For me, of course, hotteok and gyeran ppang! Then we headed back to guesthouse. It's early than other days. We're so tired and sleep early. Tbh, everyday we sleep early and sometimes we forgot to bathing (hey hey hey! I take bathing but after I woke up from sleep. Like ermm 2am or 3am. Thanks to water heater or I'll be ice cube) To go to Myeongdong, it's the same pathway how you go to Namsan Tower. But the Exit gonna be different. Take exit 6 or 8. For k-poppers, if you want to feel like a heaven for a while, do visit Myeongdong shopping spot undergroung coz there are too many k-pop thingy there. You gonna be crazy while visit there. So control yourself (heheheh). Honestly, to go to Cat Cafe is a little bit confusing since there are lot of shops and streets. But don't worry, you will meet the Cat mascot and he/she will show you the way. To go there, take Exit 6 of Myeongdong station then immediately take the road at your left. Keep walking till you find BSX. Then, turn to the right and you will see the Banila co. outlet located there. keep walking and tadaaa! you have arrive to your destination. While for Busan Jib restaurant's direction, from Exit 6 or 8 you need to find Uniqlo at your right side which is opposite the Nature Republic. Just walk straight till you find Apple Frisbee on your right. This restaurant is located with the same street with Apple Frisbee.
