photos all on facebook with caption.

so my korea trip lasted from 20th - 27th December.

i went for sleepover at dingrong's house on the 19th so that we can cab down together on the 20th.

wanted to stay up the night but dingrong cmi. HAHAHAHA. i keep trying to wake her up since 5am but only woke up near 9am?? then watched Running Man "the truegary show" in the morning online. hahaha. quite funny!

Day 1 - 20th Dec

our plane at 1505 (GMT +8) and reached korea at 2210 (GMT +9). watched mr poppers' penguin on the plane and listened to songs. tried to watch the winnie the pooh movie and a selena golmz movie but too boring and i didnt complete them.

after touched down, we went to hotel. temperature was about 2degC.

as young people, of course we researched about activities at night (HEHEHE) and we cabbed down to dongdaemun at night... w/o dingrong tho, she stayed in the hotel alone as she was very tired.

tried all the street food and bought boots and etc. shopped until 4am!! saw an ice-cream cafe with songseungheon as the ambassador! i regret not taking photo ): (wanted to go eat during our visit to dongdaemun with tour but failed to do so)

Day 2 - 21th Dec

Morning call at 6.50am (GMT +9 from now on). supposed to meet at lobby at 7.50am. we were only late for 5min and the whole tour disappeared, all boarded the bus -.- all damn punctual.

anyway my tour has 24people, 4 other families. 3 families have each a pair of boy and girl, with the boy being the eldest.. lol typical family. 1 family with one very young daughter. 2 families with grandparents.

went to everland! very very big. didnt try a lot of rides cos dingrong cannot take thrilling rides. but it's damn cool. check out the photos. it snowed during the christmas parade!!! damn cool! SNOW!! there's a zoo in everland too. spent one whole day in everland.

our tour guide gave everyone a mini stuff toy as christmas gift (dunno whether he paid himself or he gotten it for free lol)

after that went to yeoju premium outlet where all the branded stuffs are at discounted prices. everyone bought stuffs except me cos couldnt find anything i really like :/

at night, we browse the channels and saw 1n2d!!! then there's running man when we were about to sleep. lol. we on the tv as we sleep cos the ringing sound when the room is silent is unbearable.

Day 3: 22th Dec

morning call at 6am. proceed to ski area. quite cool to ski. it was damn damn damn damn cold. neg17degC with a lot of strong wind! the wind totally made me fall a few times. i hereby declare ice skating is easier than skiing.. but i wanna learn skiing too! it's so fun ):

then we went for a ride up the mountain. it's supposed to be for winter olympics atheletes only! dunno how our guide managed to get us there. lol. (we were supposed to go for some gondola ride but didnt due to certain reasons)

at night went to hotspring/waterpark. either you go hotspring naked (single gender) or go waterpark in swimsuit (mixed genders). huimin didnt go cos she wasnt convenient. only 3 of us plus another auntie from our tour went for the female hot spring + sauna.. damn hot but very relaxing. there's a very cold pool too. i was trying to swim until i saw a beetle floating in front of me -.-

at night we went to the convenient store GS25. the convenient store is damn big in the resort!!

Day 4: 23rd Dec

Went to nami island. pretty pretty scenery. oh suddenly a small group of korean students approached me, giving me a take photo gesture. i thought they wanted me to help them take photo, but instead they wanted to take photo with me LOL. they very cute sia.

then transfer to jeju island. we supposed to board plane at 1725, but cos we reached earlier and we managed to change our tickets to 1630! im surprised at how flexible they are. so we reached jeju one hour earlier.

went to see the yongduam rock which is shaped as a dragon head.

after returning to hotel, we went to a certain street to shop... but didnt buy anything other than from etude house lol.

Day 5: 24th Dec

climbed the seongsan sunrise peak. it was raining ):

took photos at the rape seed flower farm

then went to the tangerine farm to pluck tangerine and buy the tangerine products.

followed by joanne teddy bear museum.. this museum is quite small scale although it is the first teddy bear museum. a lot of joon bear. damn a lot. and the leeminho bear.

then we went to glass castle.

jet boat ride - damn cool i didnt know a boat ride can be so thrilling! it was damn fast. it was raining when we went in and it snowed when we got back. we were wondering why got hard stuffs hitting on our faces during the ride. lol in the end it's snow!

mysterious road - optical illusion. apparently, you thought the road you see ahead is upslope. but when you turned your engine completely off, the vehicle still moves ahead, defying gravity. actually it's optical illusion of the road. the road is actually going downslope instead of upslope.

at night, we went out to buy some little fireworks and went to some random park to light them! but cos it is snowing, some of the stuffs i buy got wet and couldnt work ): will show video soon!

Day 6: 25th Dec CHRISTMAS!

flew from jeju to cheongju airport and bus ride back to seoul.

lotte world: couples everywhere! and since it's holiday, there's damn a lot of people everywhere. need to wait >30min each ride. lucky we had plenty of time. most of the rides are better than in genting! although some are quite scam hahaha

Ice gallery + ice carving: go check out the photos! damn cool

dongdaemun: ok shopped for souvenirs. and after returning back to hotel, we came out again to shop. but only shopped until 2am as the coldness was unbearable! about neg10? haha. need to bargain a lot also!

Day 7: 26th Dec

i was sleeping during the drive past presidential blue house -.-

the gyeongbuk palace is damn big, but it is only 30% done after being destroyed many years ago by fire. cos they are still waiting for all the correct materials to be ready..

went to ginseng showroom, amethyst factory and local cosmetic shop. the speaker for cosmetic shop damn persuasive can! i almost wanted to buy all the products.. but nah, no $$ lol..

went to namsan tower. supposed to go up but cos only one out of 3lifts were working, there was a super long queue. time didnt allow us to wait, so we gotten refund and went around taking photo only. cui ttm. but it was pretty pretty!

non-verbal artistic comedy 'drawing show'. actually the 4guys performing quite not bad. muscular! LOL. they draw damn good also. but cos i was too tired, i cant help keep falling asleep =/

went to shinchon. OMG a lot of things to buy but only 1hour -.- next time should just come here to shop. then we went to our last stop: local provision shop to buy all the 土产.

then we transfer to our hotel in inchon.

Day 8: 27th Dec

Morning call at 4.30am, meet at 5.30am to proceed to airport. reached airport about 6.30am and check in etc and went for breakfast before boarding the plane at 7.50am.

oh my, lucky we boarded the plane late at about 8am, and we walked past the business class area. BLOCK B WAS THERE. they were sitting in one whole row. how to recognise them? all different hair colours -.- damn obvious can! i was so stunned that i was starring and too stunned to do anything. damn regret never take photo/ask for autograph.. during the flight, there were curtain to separate the business class and economy class. i didnt have the courage to pull the curtain open. LOL.

reached singapore, took photo of them as they walked past the baggage area. all the fans screaming. tsktsk.

yeah then went home with my sis and mom. hahaha

it was really a nice trip.

other than with my friends, dingrong, germaine and huimin.

punctual at all times (other than the 1st morning lol) although we went out till late every night.

korea is such a pretty country that i really want to go again. so romantic can! i dont mind staying in the country for a few months in the future.
