Annyeong Chingu! Lol, ew sorry. I just got back from Korea.

So basically I won't be writing much I'll just post my non existing photography skill photos here.

 Took this on the flight. Never knew I could ever witness this beautiful sight. Btw, I didn't slept the whole 6 hours and 30 minutes flight. When I arrived at Korea I was really koyak rabak. We arrived at 6.30AM KST, I watched 3 movies in the flight at 3 meals and still couldn't sleep. Saying it's jet lag is total bullshit with only 1 hour difference. Anyways, sunrise.

 The first destination was Nami Island. The place for filming of Winter Sonata. The weather was perfect. The same as being in Bilik Frozen. I got on the same boat as Got7 did the other day they went there. Thus, the very overwhelmed feeling, overjoyed, tears of happiness of the fact being in Nami Island which they were there few weeks before. Yes, I am very obsessive like that, I'm 18 and I need help. I know. Yada yada bro wtv.

 Just thought that it look cool? I don't even know.

 So I was strolling around the Children Library in Nami Island when I saw this "Sepi Tanpa Buku" and I was like, oh finally something that I understand without any struggle! The joy!

So this is the holy grail lunch box. Do-si-rak. As they call it. Nothing special but I was starving so it taste gooooood. It is served in the lunch box and they'll give up hand gloves because it's freaking hot and you'll have to shake it shake it for me everybody! shake it. and thus the photo above explained how it's supposed to look like after being shaken.

This is one of the lanes in Nami Island. Pretty sight, indeed. There's soooo many human beings there. It was a fun walk.

 Rode segway or wtv you call it as, I don't really care, in Nami Island. I cost 10,000 won per 30 minutes, which is RM35. I have no idea but I just paid without thinking much. It was fun, though the way up to the hills was painful because it just wouldn't go up those steep path. But it was worth it.

This was dinner. I've always seen this on TV so, being the very easily amused as I am. I was indeed, amused and overjoyed, yet again. Nothing much though. Just grilled chicken, mushroom and rice cake with rice and lettuce wraps. Also, kimchi and soy bean paste and garlic aaaaaand green pepper. This serving is for 4 person. Thus, I was hungry at night and at maggi. Life is good.

The best thing about the hotel we stayed in was there's a lot of cafes and even Olive Young! Its basically a pharmacy but with tons of makeups! The grande size of Green Tea Cream was 6800 won, which is approximately RM21 or something. The darn tax is soooo expensive. But anyway I went to starbucks with Kak Lin, Kak Anem and Kak Zu. I hung out with bunch of ladies because apparently I am the youngest in the tour group. Yay 18 year old Qee!

This is Everland. And that high structure is the holy grail in Everland, T Express. I waited for 2 hours for the ride and it was worth it. I almost lost my soul. Apparently, its built out of woods and thus the scary shit sound it made. During the ride, istg I saw hair clips and lipstick flying right beside me. What a waste of a good lipstick, ouch. Bough an ice-cream which cost 2800 won, around RM10. yes, for a damn ice-cream cone. And the best part was that we didn't finished the ice cream because suddenly, like seriously all of the sudden, we were on the entrance like omg we were back there behind the long queue awhile ago? WHAT A WASTE OF A PERFECT CHOCOLATE ICECREAM AND MY RM10!!! but the queue inside was loopy loop. Thus the 2 hours of wait.

It was spring in Korean and it was just beautiful!

 Bought this at the gedegang and it cost 1000 won. Pineapple fanta. Damn good.

Islam is not the biggest population religion in Korea so it was hard to see any mosque around there and almost not that possible to find halal food. Those mouth watering food sold on the sidewalks isn't guaranteed halal. Thus, the starve. But, there's a lot of halal restaurant in Itaewon and there's the Itaewon mosque as seen above.

 Speaking about Itaewon, I fell in love with the guy there. He works in Lush, he's damn good looking and he speaks fluent English, which is the plus point for him! This is Itaewon street. And that's Auntie Balkis and Uncle Aminuddin. Hola!

This is the famous Banana Milk, ba-na-na u-yu. Sooooo gooooood and you can find it everywhere in Korea! So hard to find this in Malaysia. I am very sad.

 

 This is one of palace, which name I don't remember. It's amusing how they treasure their old palace and such. What about Malaysia?

Just thought the roof design is magnificent. I mean, look at this?!

 The long awaited Seafood Kimchi Stew that I've been watching throught screen all this while. I seriously have no idea why they like it a lot? Maybe the fact that I am very Malay inside and out. Thus, the love for nasi lemak and masak lemak cili padi. I mean, it taste too fishy and too kimchi. I got sick of kimchi on the 3rd day because they served it on each meal. I mean, come on Korean People! Have some variety in life.

 Tried out the hanbok and I look like a pregnant whale, as if looking like a whale is not enough. I mean, it's very kembang and made me look very very kembang. Thank God being Malay we wear baju kurung. At least I don't look that kembang in baju kurung.

 They took us to this cosmetic shop and I was seriously losing it. But then I realized I don't have that much money so I was calmed for a bit. I mean look at those lipsticks. Soooooo many colors! But it cost a lot. It cost me a life. So didn't buy any lipsticks because I prefer spending RM30 for NYX lipsticks than these almost RM100 shits. But, believe me. It was paradise and hell all in one. And there's this one cute salesgirl who assisted me there. We had trouble communicating because I don't speak Korean, and she doesn't speak English. But it was okay. Spoke some basic Korean that I know and she was beyond happy that I speak her language. She picked out the best facial wash and face mask for my skin type and I'm just blessed to encounter such amazing person while being there.
Oh, but she called me "unnie", I am obviously younger than her though.

 There's a lot of Gong Cha in Korea and I was like eyyyyy, Gong Cha!  And mom couldn't stop with her "Go inside and make me some drinks, gong cha girl" Adoi mak, why

 This was in Namsam Tower. We had to hike the hill to get the best view. I am very unfit. I love life. But the view is just amazing and the weather is perfect!

 The long journey to the top. It was very calming with the greens around and the beautiful blooming flowers.

 You have no idea the struggle I had to take this picture. I was almost lying down. Not lying. But it was worth it.

 I nak teropong jalan ke hati you. uhuhuhu. This is the famous place for Malay drama that shoots in Korea, the lock place. I don't know what it's called. There's a lot of locks around here

The view from observatory deck. Damn Seoul.

I am indeed, the cutest. 

 The Joongki fever is definitely spreading around the whole Korea. I mean, there's a lot of these standee everywhere. But this one is in Myeondeong. Didn't met any korean idol but I have a picture with a standee. It's ok.

I only stopped by here to buy things for my friends. I swear I was losing it. I mean, I almost buy GOT7 merch, but I held myself well. Congratulations!

And there probably it. I mean, there's a lot more. But this is long enough for today.

The next time I'm going to Korea, I'll be going with my friends, especially Hanis, Turtle, Sazzie and Ira. Because, why not. We'll definitely spend a night in front of JYP, YG, SM, BigHit. what else? 

Okay, toddles.
