Soul in Seoul - One Mount / Insadong

Wanted to see snow all these while, because i never see any before :x

There's no snow in Korea when we were there. 

The receptionist in the hotel told us that there will be snow up the mountain on the mid of October. 

Which is the day after we left -_________-

So Marcus actually found a place call One Mount at Goyang. 

Its a mall that has snow park and water park.

Due to the weather, of course we went for snowpark instead. 

How to get there : Exit from Juyeop Station.

You could see GS25 mini mart on you left, cross the road and walk all the way straight. 

You'll pass by the park and from park you could see One Mount sign. 

While on your way there, you can see a traditional building.

Then we saw a board saying SNSD's Yoona film Mr.President and I here. 

And we took so pictures too. LOL.

I was running around and told Marcus : YOONA STOOD HERE . OMG OMG . 

HAHAHHAHHA. 

Entrance fees for snow park is 20,000 won per person. 

There's a rental of jackets , glove and helmets from 5,000 won onwards. 

Oh ! You can rent the ice skating shoes at 5000 won too.

I didnt. Traumatize after falling down previously and still having the scar till now :(

Go up to 3rd floor, and there's this thing outdoor as well. 

We were thinking to go back and play again after finish exploring the indoor.

But it was closed the 2nd time we went up.

Oh well, I guess they are open for certain hours only. 

Those in our backgrounds are actually cards for santa. 

So pretty isnt it ? :)

And you can act as a santa. 

Hello . Meet grumpy santa. 

Kidding. Im a happy santa ok?

HOHOHO. 

Oh! Theres also these adorable dogs here that would pull the carriage while you're sitting in it. 

But you have to pay 7000 won per person to have that one round ride. 

But i insisted that Marcus should push me while im sitting. 

So we saved 14000 won. 

hehehe. 

There's another room where you will see ice aka snow.

I was shivering like mad but Marcus say i could train myself for Japan because that will be the weather when we go to Japan .

wth. I suddenly feel like burning my ticket. 

On the 3rd floor again, they have all these traditional things where you can wear and used them as props to take pictures.

I do wonder is really elder than me that much -______-

After finishing our adventure, we visited caffe bene. 

They have cheesecake flavour too but it was sold out !

So we took Kiwi instead :)

With Ham and cheese waffle and cheese bagel. 

if you're not a fan of dry food, dont take the bagel. 

LOL. There's only cheese on top and it feel so hard to swallow because its too dry for us. 

Then we headed to some historical places .

This fat boy want to get the best shot but i cannot tahan the sun -.-

After that we headed to insadong .

Being fooled by ice cream man.

The turkish ice cream man. 

Look at the greedy faceeeeee.

Classic vanilla , strawberry and chocolate. Which has been everyone's childhood favourite.

The difference of turkish ice cream is there are not like normal ice cream. 

You can see the pic where i've been fooled, it wont drop even the ice cream is positioned up side down . 

Not to miss out in Insadong is traditional clothes.

The whole street, there will be people promoting you to go for traditional photoshoot. 

We went into one of it, 20,000 won per person. 5000 won extra for the clothes.

And no, we have to selfie instead of having a photographer to capture our picture for us. 

Suddenly felt got scammed. LOL. 

I chose my 2 favourite color, which is white and pink.

But the lady there told me im too short for adult dress. 

-_______________-

They told me to go for kids size. 

..........

But i die die also want my pink and white.

So there, you see. Its really too long for me :/

Soul in Seoul - Klive

I knew i've talked about Klive before. 

But today I want to blog abt the details. 

Klive is actually inside Lotte Fitin. 

How to get there : 

Get down at Dongdaemun History and Culture Park , Line 2,4 or 5 , Exit 12 & 13. 

And you'll see the entrace in the underground shopping mall.

You can also get down at Dongdaemun station, walk pass all the malls and you'll see the main entrance of Lotte Fitin across the road :)

Go all the way up to the 9th floor.

You see Gong Cha right infront of you when you go up the escalator at the 8th floor. 

Klive is just above Gong Cha. 

But you have to go up by stairs. 

I dont mind climbing up by stairs because you could see standees of Big bang along the stairs. 

*screamsssss* 

The show of every K pop hologram concert starts hourly. 

You see. it looks like real ticket. 

You could get discount after doing a survey. Not sure is it permanent or not. 

But we only paid 26,400 won per person instead of 30,000won after completing a survey given by the cashier. 

 While waiting for the show to start , you can walk around and start taking pictures.
There's also a cafe inside.
But i prefer to take pictures. HAHAHAHAH.

You seeeeee ! You can stand infront of the screen and dance along with all the oppas. 

HAHAHAHHAHA !

No , im too shy . I just stand there and im like awkwarddddd.

TOP oppa hand 

GD oppa hand. 

Then u can start pressing button next to the screen, and one celebrity will only come out in every single press. 

This is right above the cafe.

So many Lee Hi's bear !

OH ! and there's some paper and pens there as well.

you could write your fan letter and put it in the postbox. 

Every celebrity has one postbox.

For example, GD has one, Top has one, Taeyang has one, Seungri has one and Daesung has one, instead of having BIG BANG post box. 

I wanna bring this bear home. tooooo cute !

And then my wish came true.

No i couldnt bring it home but it walked out and i couldnt stop screaming. 

:O

Perfomance by the koreans are too awesome !

They will perform before the hologram concert start. 

And during the concert, Psy , 2ne1 and Big Bang will choose a winner from the crowd. 

Winner could snap and print for free.

Original price is 5000won.

Well, u see. We didnt know. 

So we actually printed one before the concert starts.

And 2ne1 actually chose Marcus as the winner. 

Besides getting a ''kiss'' from Dara unnie, we won a snap and print too.

Now we have 2. Dont worry if the photo turn out not the way you want it. 

You can snap till you satisfied before decided to print it out or not. 

But dont held on too long as some other people are q-ing as well. 

I bet kpop fans will have lots of fun , JUST LIKE ME.

hehhehee. 

Can I turn back time nowwww ? 

I start feeling lonely to be honest. 

I mean when im home alone laaa. LOL.

I miss my ex-colleagues and bosses.

I miss how i could just burst everything and they understand the problem im facing at work. 

I miss how we could just go to each other's place and gossip. (girls being girls)

Deep down, I MISS HAVING COLLEAGUES.

Being home alone, no one to talk to, just baking and baking. 

And when im done, i just clean the whole house, every single corner. 

It just felt so lonely. 

I miss how a job made me organised my time so well, without any last minute interruption. 

I miss that i dont have to standby 24/7 because of last minute requests.

I miss how i dont have to work on weekends. 

Today i finally realize whats important to me .

-TIME. 

No matter how much we've earned, I realize money means nth when we dont have time for love ones. 

I miss having my own time as well. 

Ok, done ranting. Spilling out made me feel like crying. 

Till then, I'll be back with more of my Korea post :)
