Korea Travelog 2k17: Day 6

Hi, hello, annyeong! first of all, sorry for the late post coz I'm too busy lately. I got no free time to update my blog and usually I'll update it at 1am before I'm going to sleep. So here, my journey for the second last day before I'm going back to Malaysia (uhuuu).

April 28th 2017 (Friday)

-Haneul Park

-Coex Artium

Have you heard bout Haneul Park? For me, this is my first time hear it and it such a bless I know bout this place. How I know this place? Okey lemme tell you the story. While searching best places in Seoul for my precious trip. I just wondering does Seoul got any beautiful park that I can visit? I remember there was a beautiful park where Running Man ever shooting their scene I dunno which episode but what I'm remember in that episode the guest were Hong Jonghyun, Nam Joohyuk and any other handsome rookie actor. They shoot at this beautiful playground but when I searched the place it's so far than Seoul. So I can't make it there. Then I saw some gardens that located near Seoul. One of them are Haneul Park. There are alot of park beside Haneul Park which are Pyeonghwa park, Noeul Park, Nanjicheon Park and Nanji Hangang Park. All of these gardens located at World Cup Stadium area. Since I went to Haneul Park, then I gonna explain all bout Haneul Park. Haneul means sky. You need to climb the stairs to reach Haneul Park. So no wonder the name is Haneul Park right? It's the higher park. Haneul Park consists of vast grassland located at the highest elevation of the 5 parks. The park's pasture is covered with eulalias and wild flowers in their most natural state. Five wind-powered generators provide power to the park and the park's maintenance office. Once a mountain of garbage, it is now a green hill with 22 lookout points offering breathtaking views of Seoul, including the N Seoul Tower, Bukhansan Mountain, and Hangang River. Tall tress are line the parks to provide shades and serve as resting spots for visitors. As a popular spot to enjoy the sight of eulalias, the park usually remains open until late in the evening during the Eulalia Festival period. 

I went during spring season so the eulalias were not grew up at that time. It's just started to growth because the spring season gonna come to the end soon. Such a bad time I choose to visit here. It's okay then, the park still beautiful with all beautiful spots for my memorable photos.

How to go here?

You need to walk off at World Cup Stadium (line 6) and take exit 1. From exit 1, turn right and go around the stadium. Follow the big road and turn left to cross the street at the 4-way intersection. You'll see the Haneul Park signage at the parking lot. In parking lot area,there is a shuttle bus station that you can use to the top. Alternatively,you can take the zig-zag stairway, which precisely 291 stairs to finally arrive at Haneul Park. For me anf my friend, we just climbed the stairs. It's good for your health tho.

You gonna be shock coz there are not too many foreigners know bout these parks and most of the visitors are korean people. Make sure to be here before 12pm coz it's gonna be hot since the sun already appear on your head (Is it right?)

Address: 487-48 Sangam-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul, South Korea

 서울특별시,마포구,상암동 487-48 

yeah I'm feeling like in k-drama here. Feel like Lee Jongsuk coming and take me away. (oh god that imagination)

Move to the next destination which is SMTown Coex Artium. My friend's favourite spot. I admit I love to go here to but to many high school girls here. What I can say for this place is, it is the museum for SMTown artists. You can see their trophies which they had won in previous comebacks in all music broadcast, music awards and etc. You also can take photos with all SM Town artists faces as your background. Feels excited right?! (gonna feel excited if you an SMTown-family). They got cafe in here which known as The SUM cafe. You can see a lot of greetings and autograph from all SM artists on the table and chair (it's not vandalism thingy. It's just a design, okey? hahahah). They also got a theater which is 3D theater. Feel like you meet them face to face. Coz it's 3D and everything look real in there. Oh! it's free of charge and you just need your money when you wanna eat at The Sum cafe and theater ticket.

How to go here?

You need to go to Samseong station (line 2) and take exit 6. Nahh you will see the fab building with damn good design. So fucking easy right? hahahaha I might not go here for my another trip coz I'm not into SM family so much. But this place is good. YG need do like this also so I will sleep in there for a day only (I admit the security guard gonna pull me out from the building). Btw it's such an interesting place for k-poppers. SERIOUSLY!

Address:513 Yeongdong-daero,Samseong 2-dong,Gangnam-gu,Seoul,South Korea.

서울특별시,강남구,삼성 2-동,513 영동대로 

Do you see Chanyeol there? yeah I'm talking to chanyeol at that time (someone call doctor and take this crazy girl to the hosp)

So these are the places that I went during my second last day. After we went to Coex artium, we went to Ewha shopping street again to treat ourselves with some korean foods before we fly to Malaysia tomorrow. We went back to guesthouse early than usually coz we need to packing all things and sleep early. 

again, sorry for late post!

Korea Travelog 2k17: Day 3

April 24th 2017 (Tuesday)

-Agency tour

-Ewha university shopping street.

It's day 3 guys! Another 4 days more. So bear with me for another upcoming 4 entries. For this day, we planned to go to agencies that we really want to go. Make sure to research which agencies that you wanna visit because there are so many agencies here because there are too many k-idols that you really want to accidentally meet right? yeah guys, I have an interesting story. Later, I will tell you okay? We departed from guesthouse a little bit late since the feel of exhaustion from Everland still there. I even can't stand carefully because I'm so tired. So we departed at 10am after watching some variety shows from tv. The wheather was so nice at that time. I really love that day. Feel like wanna stay here for a long time (seriously guysss). So first agency that we went was BigHit Entertainment. Since BigHit Entertainment located at Sinsa. It means both station are in the same line(Line 3). So don't transfer to any station okey! Its take not more than 15 mins to arrived there since Sinsa is one stopped after Apgujeong. We took Exit 1 and walked out from there. 

There, at Sinsa, I don't know maybe only me that felt there were to many people who wearing mask that look like traineers. Seriously guys, their style so into k-idols.Yeah, we just ignore them since I don't know them well. Actually we got lost when searching the building. I didn't found any blog that shows direction to BigHit. So I need to discovered on my own. I just use google map and count how many junctions that I must passed or entered. Its so fucking hard tho.Following what I have written on my travel book (yeah, you need this guys if you're backpacker. So you will remember your itinerary) After walked from Exit 1, We need to continue walked about 8 mins till we passed the 5th junction then turn right from there. After that we need to turn left from the second junction(you will find the second junction after you turn right. I counted the junction that I've passed by).But still, we can't find where the exact BigHit building. We just wandering around the neighbourhood.There are a lot of agencies there such as NH Media, TOP Media and also CJ&M Ent. Suddenly I felt so excited but after that felt stress because I can't found where is the precious building of BigHit.Oh! I forgot to tell you. while searching BigHit, make sure you wear comfort shoes because you gonna walk on hilly road. Yeah, BigHit Entertainment located on the hilly road. Kinda hurt my legs.But don't worry guys, I found the agency because I met to many tourist walked opposite us. I mean we wanna walked down from the hilly road. But then, I found other tourists walked up through hilly road. So it must be they got the same purpose with me right. So I just followed them then based on the BigHit address, nah! I found it! Actually they also don't know where the exact location of BigHit Entertainment. Muahahaha! give a big applause to me! (joke man!)

I'm a little bit shocked when saw the signboard. Its full with cheers and greetings from BTS's fans and the important part is the writing is in Malaysian language. Omo, BTS got a lot of Malaysian fans, I guess (including me and my friend). I wanna give you the exact direction to go here, but as you already know (if you an ARMY or multifandom or even care about BTS) they already moved into new building. So why I need to give you their old address right since they don't go here anymore. After took some photos infront here, we walked back to Sinsa station for another agencies. While walking, I saw two BigHit staff up there. Drinking coffee. They saw me then one of the staff said "annyeonghi gaseyo"(goodbye). Omo! I'm so excited. hahaha. Can you imagine if BTS said that? i just look at them and smiled. After that walked away with my friend. Incase you wanna know the old address, here I give you :

13-20,16-gil,Dosan-daero,Nonhyeon 1-dong,Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea.
서울 특별시,강남구,논현 1동,도산대로,16-길,13-20

So move to another company. Its Starship Entertainment. I really like Monsta X because they're so swag and talented. I can't tell you who is my bias because all of them are bias wrecker.Later I will write about Monsta X bio.Their choreography never makes me feel unsatisfied. The choreography is suitable with the songs, You need to check all Monsta X songs. Other than Monsta X, I love Sistar too. Yeah, as you guys already know Sistar already disbanded. Feel sad because they give such a great summer vibes. Hope other idols can follow Sistar steps after this. Hopefully! I also in love with Yoo Seungwoo's sweet voice. You also need to check his songs too. Its great for lullaby or for relieve stress. Okey, enough with k-idols promotion. Starship is kinda near with Sinsa station. Plus, its easy to find it. You can go to Starship Entertainment websites if you want know the direction of the building. From Sinsa we went to Eonju station line 9 and walked to Exit 1 or 8. Then, walked straight till you find the building that has 'Starship' label. You also can stop at Sinnonhyeok station at the same line with Eonju and take Exit 4. But the agency gonna be at your opposite. So its easy to take Eonju station and choose either Exit 1 or 8. There are alot of company in that building. Not only Starship, there are Cre.Ker Ent. , Plan A Ent, KingKong Ent. and etc. I bet you wondering who idols under these agencies right? Lemme tell you. Are you familiar with Joo Hakyeon? yeah that Produce 101 traineer. He's under Cre.Ker Entertainment. This agency is belong to LOEN entertainment. Soon, Joo Hakyeon goona debut with new boy group called as The Boyz. So yeah, lucky me to visit this before they debut.Is it lucky? cuz I didn't spotted anyone there.Only a beautiful girl with long legs and wore mask. I hope she's one of Sistar's members. From the figure, it looks like Dasom.Just a figure ok. Not confirm it. Lol) Plan A Entertainment got Apink! yeah Apink. In 2015, this agency was under Cube Entertainment. But then, LOEN entertainment take this agency to be the independent subsidiary. So yeah, it's under LOEN also(LOEN Ent. so fucking rich!). Not only Apink, they got Huh Gak and Victon. KingKong Entertainment is company that produce actor/actress. I bet if I tell you who gonna be in KingKong Ent, you must scream right?(Is it over to scream coz of this? hahaah) For this agency they got LEE KWANG SOO! It's the giraffe y'all. Not only our giraffe, they got Kim Bum, LEE DONG WOOK!, and also PARK MIN WOO (Ohh god! handsome guys in there!). Actually, there are a lot and I just know these handsome guys. KingKong Entertainment is under Starship.
Address: 4F,151,Starhill Building,Bogeunsa-ro,Gangnam-gu,Seoul,South Korea
서울특별시, 강남구 봉은사 151 스타힐빌딩 4층

Dangg! me infront Starship building. I thought Monsta X gonna be infront the building (Can I be a lucky fan for once? I thought I already be once.Oh wait, I think I already a lucky fan? Later I'll explain)

Move to the next destination. kyaa~ If I told you the next agency, you gonna explode!(Is it too over? hahaah). We when to YG Entertainment. Since I'm YG Stan, so I really excited and can't wait to go there. Deep in my heart, I hope I can met any YG artists but yeah, its just my dream because my luck not that strong on that day.I just got to see Winner's poster in GS25 mart infront YG building.Tbh, this is the farther than other agencies. YG's website also haven't put the location of their building just like Starship Entertainment. So I need to discovered on my own.To go here, we went to Hapjeong station line 6 and took Exit 8.Okey this gonna be difficult to digest because we need to look around for the landmark or we gonna lost in the middle of Hapjeong. 

• First, we need to passed by Hotel Circle and SK Gas station. Yeah you gonna see the SK gas station on your right side.But I can't find the Hotel Circle. Nevermind. as long as you discovered SK gas so move to next steps.
• We kept walking until reach Lee Mart which is just across the Proud Apartment.That means, the Lee Mart gonna be opposite of Proud Apartment.We need to go to Lee Mart.
• Next, from Lee Mart,turn right then cross the street towards Proud Apartment which is on the left side.(make sure to find the Proud Apartment entrance.Don't walk in just stay infront the entrance. Okay?)
• From Proud Apartment you will see a street sign 'Huiujeong-ro 1-gil' If you found that sign that means you are near with YG building.
• YG Entertainment is on the same side as Proud Apartment. If you YG stan then you know how the shape of YG building, right? So keep searching. If you can't find the building, find the GS25 mart and Kimchi Museum which is the yellow color building. Both these places are opposite YG building. yeah! you already arrived at YG Entertainment (YG stan mood activated!)

Oh god! I really happy to arrived there. Like wanna walking straight into YG building and make my own YG mini tour. But yeah, they got security guard tho plus there are two girls waiting their oppa also (I guess). When I took this photo they looked at me like they wanna eat me.So after bought banana milk from that precious GS25 mart, we when to the next destination. Tbh, I went to YG building on the next day because on this day (April 24th),we already wasted our time to find Fantagio Entertainment at Yeoksam. Woah, its kinda difficult to find the building. For who didn't know about Fantagio Entertainment, they produced artist such as ASTRO, WEKIMEKI and Hello Venus(previously they from Pledis) and also Seo Kang Joon is under Fantagio also.My friend really want to go there so we try to find the building but dunno where the hell its located. The address said it located at Yeoksam area but then some ASTRO fans said it located at Hakdeong. Seriously I dunno where the hell they hide the building. Plus, Fantagio staff won't let people to take photo or wait their idols infront the building. Tbh, we took like 3 hours to find Fantagio building. But hey it such a great experience because you can take a long walk at Yeoksam area. If anyone know where Fantagio Entertainment located, kindly comment below because I need to bring my friend again to Fantagio!
Here YG Entertainment address:
Address: 397-5 Hapjeong-dong,Mapo-gu,Seoul,South Korea
서울트별시,마포구,합정동 397-5

So skipped my tour to YGE and focus to my story about Fantagio. We need to gave up since its already late plus we need to go to JYPE and FNCE. The best part is, both these agencies are so close plus SME also located near these building. I didn't go there coz I'm no that hardcore fan of SM Town fam. We just skipped going there plus we will go to Coex Artium which act like SM family museum.From Yeoksam, we went to Apgujeong Rodeo station which is line 2 and take Exit 2. Before reached at Apgujeong Rodeo station you need to make a transfer at Bundang Line (arasseo?). I love this station because they promote Got7! I got photos with Got7 stand(hahahahah).After walked from Exit 2, you will arrive at Galleria Department (at the East).You need to look for all the landmark that I have stated here then you can arrive there.It's kinda difficult to find the landmark coz there are alot of buildings. Oh! know what, the buildings there are so BEAUTIFUL. I really like the design. It looks like vintage theme. Along the road, you can find a statue(I dunno how to explain this. kinda teddy bear statue?) with each different color and each statue represent different group.No wonder k-poppers will go crazy when go there.The main road next to us are Apgujeong-ro.We took a stroll for about 20 mins till saw the Citibank at the cross junction of next big road which known as Dosan daero. That Dosan daero signboard gonna be at you side so don't look at your opposite side. We turn left and walk along Dosan daero and found Korea Post Office. We turn left into the small street named Dosan daero 85-gil which is the small street between Korea Post Office and grey metallic building. While you walk you gonna see the JYPE,SME, and FNCE signboard. So we went to JYPE first because I can't wait to go there! We just walked through the street where the signboard shown the direction. Just walk straight and TADAA! JYPE! Infront JYPE, there is Dunkin Donut and full of JYP stans. So I'm not that brave to go inside there so we just stand outside there. We wait for a while coz we felt a little bit tired. After that, we need to move to FNCE, while wallked infront JYPE, hehhh! I saw someone in sleeveless shirt with cap infront the car under JYP building. I felt menboong for a while then I just smiled. That muscle body really look like Jackson! Seriously I don't make a story. It's fact!I see that guy.OMG! what a lucky day.(hahahaah wuhuu!)Once again, SERIOUSLY HE LOOK LIKES JACKSON. OH GOD, LET IT BE JACKSON!

Lets move to FNCE! to go there we walked back at the starting point where the signboard of these 3 big companies is located. To go there we need to walked straight. After like 10 mins, we arrived infront FNCE. Guess what, there are lot of fans waiting their fav idols infront the gate. We kinda shy plus scared if they scolded us coz yeah you know some K-fans didn't like foreigner at all but most of them are okey with it. I can't spotted anyone there only fans with their handmade banner.FNCE is one of my childhood memories. Korean idols who bring me into k-pop world is FT Island. They are so great with good performance and good music. My bias in FT Island keep changing I dunno who gonna be my bias wrecker. But now, I hope they gonna shine like other passed years when they got recognized well with good music. I don't say that current FT Island song not as good as before, but I prefer good songs such as Hello Hello, Severely,Love Sick and etc. You need to check it out mann!

Ah! I forgot to tell you. While searching these companies, we found Highlight's company. I know most of you know about Highlight right? It's their new name after they decided to leave CubeEnt. The company's name known as Around Us. Actually, I didn't know about their company. Thanks to my friend cuz she told me about this. I got the photo but yeah you know my phone's prob right?(kindly refer to my previous entry. I already wrote bout my black history of my phone).

So yeah, the Highlight's company. Ahh~ suddenly miss to walk here.

Move to the next destination, we went to Ewha shopping street. To go here, we went to Ewha station line 2 and took Exit 2. Ewha is just like Hongdae. They sold alot of affordable clothes since students mostly go there since Ewha Uni is located there. Plus, there are lot of cafe and restaurant also. When we arrived there, its already night so we just planning to eat some street food which can be eat by us(Halal food).I love hotteok so much! and also 'gyeran ppang' (its egg bread). Ahh! suddenly craving for these food. This is my recommended street food. Anywhere around Seoul, you need to eat these street food at least once or maybe twice or maybe can be many times.

It's large than I expected and the price.... ergh ha! 1000won. Or maybe 3000won. Mianhae! I forgot bout this already. I ever go to one of korean restaurant in here but we when there the day where I visit YGE. That restaurant known as Nipong Naepong. Since I really craving for jjampong for a long time so we went here. Its normal if you see a lot of korean people eat there because its South Korea tho. Don't scared just wait infront the door and the staff will assist you to your seat. I ordered jjampong with Level 1 spiciness. I'm not that brave to go for level 3 eventho I really like to eat spicy foods.

Tadaa! this is my precious jjampong! the delicious scale from me ermm I will give 10/10! Seriously, its delicious as hell. Since I can't eat meat in here so jjampong is the safest food coz it contain mostly seafood. Seriously recommended! Nipong Naepong. They got another type of jjampong also and my friend ordered another type of jjampong (yeah I forgot the name already) Its delicous too. Kinda like spagetti carbonara. 

Okey! I think this is my story for day 3. Kindly wait for another story and sorry for the late post coz I kinda busy since my next semester gonna start next week. So I feel like to hibernate my self before I starting my student uni's life.

Happy reading and thank you!

Korea Travelog 2k17: Day 2

April 24th 2017 (Monday)

-Everland
-Yang Good Halal BBQ restaurant

Everland address: 199 Everland-ro,Pogog-eup,Cheoin-gu,Yongin-si,Gyeonggi-do,South Korea
경기도 용인시 처인구 포곡읍 에버랜드로 199 (포곡읍)

We already planned to exempted a day just for Everland since there are too many things that we need to do in Everland. Everland is the largest outdoor theme park in South Korea. You can't finishing all games in the Everland for half day actually. You need the whole day to complete the Everland tour. Actually I had that Everland's map but i dunno where it go. I dunno where I put it after shown it to my dad. Maybe I've thrown them into the bin already? OMG! Hopefully not. For transportation, I planned to go with bus since I had researched all the impossible transportation to go there. But I didn't know that they got subway station to go there. So we just proceed with subway. If I'm not mistaken,you need to transfer to Yongin Ever Line from Bundang line (need to transfer at Giheung station and I'm forget which color it is) and Jeondae Everland station is the last station for Yongin Ever line station. You can check the station by using the app that I already told in previous entry. We woke up at 7am since we need to departed early. The estimation time that I got from that app I used, its said 1 hour and 30 mins for Apgujeong station to Jeongdae Everland station. So we already wasting our time in the subway already. Its better to departed early. Make sure your t-money got enough money in it. We grab a kimbab while waiting the train.

After an hour 30 mins passed, we arrived at Jeondae Everland station. No need to worry how to go to Everland after arrived there because they got shuttle bus to go to Everland. IT'S FREE GUYS. So just ride it okay. You also can use English language to the worker who worked at Everland because their English is not bad tho (trust me, I've tried this! hhahahaha) I didn't know many people went to Everland in week days such as Monday. Its Monday tho. The first day of the week,so people gonna busy to catching train to go to their workplace or schools. Eventho its monday, there are so many people there. I dunno either its public holiday or not in here. There are so many people who queue to enter the theme park. Thanks to their systematic system, they got a lot of counter so no need to wait for a long time. We already purchase the ticket through online. It way more cheap than you buy at Everland coz they got discount too! But there are some places that we can't enter such as Caribbean bay. Mostly we got play all of the games but not for Caribbean Bay. Its okay then, we also didn't planned to get our clothes wet on that day.

So the entrance really look like this. (I will use google photos based on what I've seen there ONLY)
Okay guys, I already searched for that Everland map that I had before this. I dunno where it go. Maybe I've thrown it into bin already (I'm so sorry!!) 

The map similarly like this one. But they don't have that label thingy instead they listed the games around Everland for visitors at the back of the map. They labelled the place by using numbers as example for number 1 the games is roller coaster. So by using the map you need to find where the exact place of roller coaster. Don't worry you won't misguided because there're too many visitors till night. Make sure you already grab your breakfast and have another food for your lunch because its difficult to find a complete meal in here. They mostly sell street food (?) thingy. You will starving for the whole day if you won't have your breakfast.

Since there are too many visitors so we need to queue for a long time (we ever queue for an hour, guys! goshh my legs). As a result, we only get to play some games because we need to go back to Seoul. Its already 4pm or 5pm at that time. So its better to moves right now since we didn't know this place exactly. Next time, I'll make sure to go here till night. (hehehh).

I need to wait for an hour and 40 mins to ride this. Ah! btw, that oppa who take care for this game is soooo handsome (annyeong oppppa).

This is the fucking scariest games that I ever ride. I swear I won't ride this kind of games anymore. Seriously! its so scary. I rather enter ghost house than play this game (ergh!). At that time, I sat beside a korean guy ( he got girlfriend already okay). When that thing rolling like hell, that guy screams like he gonna lost his voice on that day. I pray his voice got no problem after ride this game. Ouhh he look like he gonna cried. (hahahahahah)

This one not bad. I love this cuz its make my stomach ticklish (hahahahah)

This games is not that scary than that roller coaster wood thingy ( I suddenly forgot the name). There is a korean guy that ride this roller coaster with us. After the roller coaster stopped, he can't walk straightly. I fucking laughing hardly to him. seriously, he is so funny. aigooo

wahhh this games is sooo crazy. Its not that scary but during this thing swinging I can't stop laughing because its make me ticklish. Seriously! try to search 'Wanna One Jaehwan ride viking'. His reaction almost similarly with me. Its such a waste I didn't recorded my reaction. If I have the video, I will make differences with Jaehwan's reaction. (I bet no differences cuz I scream so fucking loud).

We also went to zootopia. I never went to zoo in my own country tho (Oh yeah! I have one. Its Zoo Melaka when I'm14 year old maybe).

This is one of photo that I've while I'm in Zootopia. (Bless my instagram cuz I got uploaded some of my Seoul's memorable moments)

Awww the view is so beautiful at this time. I'm falling in love with cherry blossom in here. It makes me walked into secret garden. (not that k-drama secret garden, okay)

I'm surrounding with flowers. Double beautiful! I mean the flowers. Its beautiful. My pleasure if you wanna said I'm beautiful also (AHAHAHAHAH OMG!EXCUSE MY CONFIDENT)

We moving to Jeondae Everland station to go to our next destination. It's Yang Good Korean BBQ restaurant. Its located in Yeoksan area and serving halal foods to all muslim eventho they serve alcohol too but don't worry, they know we're muslim. To reach here, we need to go to Yeoksam station line 2 (EXIT 6). Then you need to walk for a while since the restaurant is located at the small junction. Yeah, Korea got a lot of small junction. After walked out from Exit 6, we continue walked straight till the end of the building blocks. There was a KFC located at your left side. So make sure you find the KFC at your left side, okey.(remember! Its left side!). After reached at the junction, we turn to left and continue to walked. Walk straight till you find the first junction that can make you make a turn at the right side. So, take this junction and walk till you find an alley at your left side. You will see a small signboard (blue in color) which written as Nonhyeon-ro 95-gil.(If you can't find it, try searching it. Look above you since the signboard located much taller than you). Then, follow the signboard and walk through this alley. After a while, you can see that restaurant signboard.

Tadaa! this is the signboard. Make sure you find this cute sheep, uukeyy!
For Muslim, like me and my friend, Its kinda feel shy for the first time you entered there because there are too many korean at that time since its dinner time. Its a normal scene if you find them drink soju. Its okay, they won't disturb you. After we arrived at this restaurant and take our seat, there are some Malaysian and foreigner also eat beside us. So, I felt relieved for a while. (hahah at least we're not alone here).
So here, the menu!

Tbh, I forgot already what we ordered (mianhae guys, I'm such a forgetful person. Its okay, I trying to remember what I've eat there).

We ordered:

1) The marinated lamb - 18000 won/per serving

2) 2 bowls of rice-  1000/each

3) Kimchi jigae-5000won

Ouch, the marinated lamb is so delicious guys! seriously its the best food that I ever tried in Seoul (this is my second day. Me talked like I have living for 50 years in Seoul)

They also got side dish (banchan). I forgot what drinks we ordered, but they also served sky juice for us. Its FOC. So don't waste your money to buy any drinks incase you really wanna try it. I think I ordered orange juice coz I didn't knew they served sky juice for free. (I told you, its my second day). In Malaysia, you need to ask for sky juice and they charge for it (ermm I want live in Seoul so bad. hahahaah).

So, this is me with my hungry face. Oh yeah, I remembered what beverages I ordered. Its orange juice. (I'm in love with my precious orange juice).

A precious message from me to all my muslim friends: Avoid use the glass since they use it to drink alcohol eventho it have been washed cleanly. Use the metal glass that they give you. If they don't give you the metal glass, you can ask for it to the waiter/waitress. Press the 'help' button on your desk.

Yang Good Korea BBQ lamb restaurant address:

15 Nonhyeon-ro 95-gil, Yeoksam 1(il)-dong, Gangnam-gu, Seoul, South Korea

서울 특별시,강남-구,역삼 1-동,15 넌현-로 95-길

Korea Travelog 2k17: Day 1

April 23rd 2017 (Sunday)

1) FNSquare guesthouse

2)Hongdae

3) Arriate cafe

4)Han river

So here our guesthouse address:

Address: 6-7, Eonju-ro 168-gil,Gangnam-gu, Seoul.

서울 특별시 강남구 언주로 168 길 6-7

It's located at Apgujeong. So from Incheon International airport to Apgujeong. To arrived here, we need to transfered from Incheon airport -> Gongdeok station (transfer to line 6), Yaksu station and finally we arrived at Apgujeong station and we took Exit 2 as stated at the direction that they told in the website. (guys remember this, they got a lot of EXITS. No need to scared because they write the place on the signboard). Haa I got funny story again guys. My trip is not complete without funny stories (I think (?)) While we at Gongdeok station waiting the train, there was an ahjusshi talking with us. He so brave eventho he just know a little bit English. Here our conversation between us and him.
ahjusshi: Hi!
We: Hi! annyeonghaseyo (excited speaking Korean with Korean hahahaa)
ahjusshi: what are you doing here? (he speak in korean for the whole conversation. I'm not that good to translate the sentence yet)
We: .... err.. (damnnn I forgot the word travel in hanguk)
ahjusshi: yeohaeng (travel) ?
We: nae majayo. urineun yeohaeg-i-e-yo
ahjusshi: eodiga?
We: Yaksu
ahjusshi: Guksu?
We: Yaksu
ahjusshi: Guksu? yeogi yeogi Guksu? (he pointed Guksu word on the map infront us)
Oh gosh, this ahjusshi really can't hear our voice well. I think he got that hearing problem since he's old already. I thought he in 60's? or maybe nahh. We just smiled eventho we felt dizzy already. Aigoo ahjusshi. I talked with my friend bout this. 
We: ahjusshi, Guksu aniyo, Yaksu-ye-yo.
Do you want to know what that ahjusshi replied? (hahahah)
ahjusshi: ahh! Guksu! Yess. Daum jihacheoleul Yaksu kkaji geunde i jihacheoleul Guksu kkaji dochak-e-yo (he said that we need to take the next train after this train because this train will stop only at Guksu  while the next train will stop at Yaksu)
If you curious which place is more further either Yaksu or Guksu? It's Guksu  guys. hhaahha me seriously surrender with this ahjusshi plus we're tired already. So I told my friend just take the next train because this ahjusshi won't give us take this train since he think we want to go to Guksu. So we agreed. Plus, the next train will arrive only in 4 mins or 2 mins. 
ahjusshi: i jihacheol aniyeyo. daum-e. annyeonghi gyeseyo.
We: nae ahjusshi, kamsahamnida. annyeonghi gaseyo.
So he departed already. We just laughing then be like 'ahhh ahjusshiiiii!

Waiting for the next train after the current train departed. Kinda miss that ahjusshi (huhuhuhuuu)

For what I've researched, we need to take the bus and stop at ergh I don't remember that place (joeseonghamnida yeoreobun) but It's kinda near with Apgujeong station. We got conflict here. We didn't know where the exact place of that house because all the highlight places are not existed anymore. We just walked there for many times to find Volkswagen store which stated in the map but none!.By using my genius mind (excuse this please, hahaha) I told my friend bout the signboard for small junction that located at the side of the road. We just need to find the small signboard (I don't remember the exact color of the signboard) that has the same number with the address. Thanks god, with my friend's eagle eyes, we found the guesthouse! (yeayyy) I found the exact direction to go here after settled the payment with the owner. Actually they didn't updated their address which stated in the website (duhh!) We're so exhausted but I'm glad because I brought small luggage and a medium size bag. So I'm not too exhauested but feel sleepy. After settled all deposit and paid for the balance of the payment that we had paid at Malaysia, we entered the room. I can say it is not so far from our expectation but yeah, it's a backpacker style. I can say the size of the room just fine for 2 people. But I don't understand why we need to paid if we wanna use aircond? because we already did the payment. They didn't said that air conditioner is exempted from the payment and same goes to washing machine. Oh god! I'm so done with this. Seriously. why they didn't explained in the website or instagram ? It's okay, since it's spring season, and at that time, the temperature is 11C (so fucking cold I tell you) we didn't used the air conditioner. Oh!forgot to tell you, in that guesthouse, if you used the air conditioner you need to pay 5000won/day. Hahh I'm glad I'm travel here in spring season (heheehe) I can buy complete meal with 5000won tho. Same goes to washing machine too. I washed my lingerie only since I didn't sweat a lot in here. It's cold how can you produce sweat? (hmmmm) So we put our luggage and get ready to....SLEEP. Woah we were so exhausted. If I'm not mistaken, we arrived at 2pm and we sleep until 4pm. Then, get ready to go find something to eat, I'm hungry asf guys. Didn't eat since the time we arrived Incheon airport till after woke up from sleep. We went to Hongdae to find some food.

So this is me(left) and my friend infront the guesthouse. Ready to hunting some food for our tummy.

We ride the train from Apgujeong station to Hongdae station (line 2) and walked straight to Exit 9. I don't remember how long we in the train to arrived at Hongdae. After walked out from the Exit 9... WOAHHH! I GOT THAT K-DRAMA FEELINGS GUYS! (hahahaha). I can feel like I'm one of foreign student who study there (oh!what a dream!) We walked around Hongdae to find foods either street foods or any cafe or restaurant. There are lot of street vendor (?) beside the road. We went to Line cafe, and Kakao cafe. Both of these cafes are so cute! yeaa Korean really like cute thingy.

These photos are not mine but don't worry these are the real one and you can see it in Hongdae.
(The reason why I don't use photos that are mine is my phone went crazy after back to Malaysia. Its format itself! SHITTTT! RIP to my memorable photos. Some of them are in my instagram but most of them already gone. Oh shit I'm gonna cried for real at that time. Nevermind, pray for my Korea Travelog 2.0 will come to reality, guys!)

Okey this time, we really felt like our stomach hurt asf. For us, muslim people, its hard to find the halal food in here. Then guys, I got something interesting to tell you. I found a garden cafe that we already planned to visit on other day. I don't know they got one in Hongdae. So yeah, we climbed the stairs up and entered the cafe. It's sooo beautiful and aesthetic! We wanna ordered the beverages and dessert. At least we got eat a little bit eventho its dessert. The owners are so handsome (excuse my flirting). The owner approached us and we ordered the beverages and also a cake. Its oreo cream cake. He also gave us macaron because he didn't have the balance for what I've paid. Supposely he gave me 500won as the remaining but he gave me macaron instead of money. Oh god, the owner is so cute. He tho I can't speak in Korean. 
So he be like: 500won...err.. change..we..no no...macaron...
I be like 'what the hell he want to talk actually'. I just keep hearing what he wanna said. Then he asked me.
"are you can speak... korean"
Then I nodded. Then his friend laughed at him. We also laughed together. After he knew I can speak korean, he speak korean to me like a teacher teaching his student in the kindergarten. SOOO CUTEEE! he explained with the gesture eventho I can understand well. OMOOO I MISS THAT MEOTCHIN OPPA ALREADY. After we got the beverages, a cake and macaron then we climbed the stairs since they got another floor for guest. We were speechless at that time. I can't explain how beautiful the cafe was. You need to see with your real eyes.Its make me live in the fantasy for a while.

They also sell a bouquet of flowers which you can see infront the entrance. I tho that oppa wanna gave me that bouquet since I can speak korean well . (HAHAHAHA I don't see any correlation here, guys). We stay there until 7pm and get ready to go to the next destination : HANGANG!

Hangang a.k.a Yeouido park is a large recreational area. It was once originally covered with black asphalt, and people frequented the place for bycycling and roller-skating. The park is divided into theme-based sections: Traditional Korean Forest, Grass Square, Culture Square, and Nature's Ecosystem Forest. Yes, the park is fucking large, guys! What the best thing is I got a photo with cherry blossom! yeayyy! one achievement unlocked! There are a lot of citizen and foreigners doing their own things such as picnic, cycling, eat, hangout and etc. Oush! the temperature there was so cold. My nose become red because of the windy wheather plus its night already. Its fun with alot of people there. I dunno where in the place of Malaysia I can get environment like that. KLCC ? hmmmmm. Ah! wait. How to go to Hangang? yeah I'm forgot bout this. You need to go to Jongno 3ga and go to Yeouinaru which is line  and take Exit 2 or 3.

Address: 330 Yeouidong-ro, Yeouido-dong,Yeongdeungpo-gu,Seoul,South Korea

서울 특별시, 영등포구,여의도동,여의동로 330

Here me and beloved cherry blossom!

We started to departed from Yeouido park at 9pm  to our guesthouse. Its such a nice day. The next day gonna be the best ever day in my life. WE WENT TO EVERLAND GUYS! wait for the next entry and sorry for the long long longgg entry because I can't hide my feeling towards Seoul. I miss Seoul so bad. Seriously. Ah! I forgot.about Yunjuro street while in Korea (crying so bad. Joke mann hahaah) Yunjuro street is the beautiful street while spring season because it's full of cherry blossom! Like in k-drama scene which is 'The Producer'. Ahhh! It's okay. I will go there later.
