Seoul, Korea with Fivesome Part 1



Hello, I'm here to blog about my recent trip to Seoul!
It was a trip with all my besties, and our first solo trip after knowing 
each other for more than 10 years! I will be dividing the post into 2-3 parts,
as there are a gazillion photos to be posted! 



Our crazy amount of luggage (for just two of us).
I think our luggages used up so much space due to our winter jackets and clothes.
We've been shopping the whole time but I felt that I didn't bring enough stuff back!



Airplane selfie as I was so bored stuck with two boys.
Boys were bitching about one of the male cabin crew *roll eyes
Dudes will always be dudes...







After the 6 hours long and 1 hour of transit, we were all tired + famished at around 12AM. 
First meal in Korea - Ramyeon and samgak-kimbap (triangle rice wrapped in seaweed)
treated by our lovely Airbnb host. Lol after eating those, we were still famished!


After wolfing down our unhealthy 7-11 food,
we walked into a random shop after dropping our luggages
 and just pointed at random food to eat. (lol)
Honestly, we don't even know what we ordered. 



Some pictures taken nearby our home the next day.



Well sadly I look like bazhang (chinese dumpling)
because I'm wrapped in like 4 layers of clothes.
The temperature was like 0 to minus 3 ):
Sometimes it got so unbearable my teeth chattered and I couldn't speak.
I still remembered there was one night where it was -5 and I felt that my bones hurt
and my brain was having some kind of a brain freeze it hurt so bad omg.

Lol @ me being a typical Singaporean unable to adapt to a cold country.





Some train selfies. Their train system is pretty complicated,
considering that Seoul is a rather big city. 
But we had the metro app and Pear was a great navigator. 




At Gangnam! Where the trendy people are at...
and not to mention, drunk trendy people sprawling the streets at 8pm. (LOL)



Had a quick lunch at Gangnam of some seafood-galbi (I made that up).
It tasted like dakgalbi seafood style.




The dudes had their haircut and I went for some window shopping with Nasha.
Most of the haircut footage is captured in the video I made
which will be included at the end of this post.


Bought some pudding from Paris Baguette because its cheaper *typical Singaporean

Gangnam is such an awesome place! 


It's really huge, and we can't finish exploring in just a day.




Do we have the Gangnam Style!?


Visited the Maplestory pop-up store in Gangnam. 
And of course we had to spend some money  time in the store.



Bought some soft plushies and me and Fin was really 
contemplating to get the really big one home, 
but toss the idea aside thinking about our limited luggage space lol.




Mandatory group shots because we were friends for 10 years thanks to Maple.


Dined at a restaurant in Gangnam, and the food is crazy delicious.
In the photo above, that bowl with cream like substance is curry udon.
Which taste like heaven.


This simple sweet potato chips (which were called fries) were AMAZING.
The dips can send you to outer space.
 Blows my mind how something so simple taste so good.


Korean fried chicken. Awesumz!

We visited a dog cafe at night in Myeongdong!


Myeongdong is really one hell of a tourist trap hole...
We went back there like 4 nights for shopping *_*



Funny thing is, when we went to the dog cafe,
we met the Scoot cabin crew that the 2 boys bitched about. LOL.
#Whatasmallworld


A picture taken with my dog that came to my lap.
It's a dog that's easily jealous because whenever other dogs came near me,
it would bark and snap at them LOL!




Fin's terrified face when a huge dog was sniffing around him.



Dogs queuing up for treats!




Had yummy Myeongdong street food...
and regretted because I lao-saied and tummy ached like mad.
I don't know why its just me because the rest were fine.








Went Hongdae for clubbing. I think it has been years I've posted any club photos.
Haven't been clubbing for seriously so long! 
And danced till my thighs were sore the next day. Lmao.
Definitely an unforgettable night :D 




Our Laneige haul from Myeongdong.
Well that's all for now folks. 
Do check out the video I made with my GoPro,
and don't forget to like, comment, and watch in HD! 

Thank you!
