KOREA TRIP 01/02/2012 - 06/02/2012 Part 3 Final

Part 3 and the Final Part of my Korea Trip

4th Feb, Lotte World

Lotte World is similar to Genting Highland Indoor Theme Park except Lotte World is much more cooler. We only play the ghost house and visit to the funny museum. For me, hanging out with Seulgi is much more important. So we sat at a restaurant and have a chat. She wanted to treat us at a better restaurant but doesn't have a chance. I saw a few artist Gilme (Clover) and NS Yoon-G. They are really pretty to the max. At 9pm, we have to get back to the hotel. I asked her to sleep with us. Everybody start to asked me who is she, how I know her and like it is something interesting to have a korean friend. She followed us to the hotel and sleep with us. At first, we wanted to go to 노래방 but we were too tired so we decided to chit chat in the room. Around 12am Seulgi was sleeping, me and my mom walked around to find my dinner. I didn't ate my dinner due to my stomach pain (period). Ouh yeah, I remembered that when oppa know that I have stomach pain he also said that he still in pain with his action. hahahaha so cute... I walked around and found a few stalls and shops. Bought 떡볶이 and 김밥 ... the portion is big enough for you to eat for 3 people.





P/S: I saw a few artist who perform at the Lotte World for some sort of radio show.
GILME and NS YOON-G. They were totally pretty!! Oh gosh... I'm jumping when I know it is them..


5th Feb, Courtyard Marriot Hotel

What a beautiful morning it was. Start our journey at 7am for breakfast. The went to Ginseng Centre. When I heard that the extract are good for mask I wanna buy it but when I saw how much does it cost, I was like nevermind maybe next time. Bila I pergi kat souvenir shop, I talked korean with some of the 아줌마 and while i was talking, the kids started to shouting 엄마 and ran to me. Ahjumma asked me if they are my children. Obviously not! She said that I;m good with children and I can be a good mother. How does she know when I myself doesn't even know it. hahahaha hopefully i can be a good one. After a few minutes, I went out and head to the bus. Duduk kat luar dulu hisap rokok tetiba ahjussi datang kat and borak. Tanya sama ada I dah kahwin. U guys also know that I belum kahwin kan. Boyfriend pun I takda. Then ahjussi tuh recommend kan oppa tuh kat I. I said NO. Oppa tuh tarik muka tanya kenapa plak? Because we are too far. Then oppa tuh paham la. Nape oppa hang nak couple ngan cek ker? 부부할래요? hahahaha
Continue on the the Amethyst Factory. Kedai jewelery untuk MAK DATIN oklah kot. I prefer Silver. No offense yek.. Next up, Make Up Center my favorite. Yang best tuh all the guys were attentive to the sales girl who was explaining on the usage of how and what. They all tried it together but when it comes to buy only a few of them were buying. Me only bought gloss sebab color die memang cantik. After that, semua balik hotel untuk praying then ate lunch at korean restaurant.. at last food yang i suka makan.. kuikuikui....



KIMCHI SCHOOL where everybody learn how to make kimchi. cool!!! Then MYUNGDONG shopping. I try to find things that I want but none of it sell here. I was like weird. Where are the cool rings, bracelet or necklace. How bout caps and shoes? Feel weird that it is not easy to find those stuff. Maybe because it was winter so we don't really see all those stuff.



Later that night, we walked around in TIME SQUARE with my PAJAMAS on. hahahaha... it is just a time square for goodness sake right? hahahaha.. Bought some papers, envelope and small paper bag to give some present to our tour guide (혜연 언니), photographer (오빠) and our bus driver (아저씨). Wrote them letter and give them a small potpourri vase. They were quite surprise when they received it. Maybe it is the first time. I have no idea.

6th Feb, Last Day

Our flight is at 10.30am. So by 6am, we check out and straight to our last stop to shop some food or souvenir. We bought a lot of food and some of the staff speaks a little malay just for promotion. But I spoke to them in korean since I felt like they really had a hard time to explain. I even help them to talk in malay. I wrote in hangul but it is malay. I got some free stuff most of the time. For helping or talking with them. Even the ajhussi who packed our food talked with me. I was asking them who is on that poster. They were joking with me that he is Kim Taehui's father. I was like eeiiiii.... hahahaha... After that we went to the airport and check in out luggage. The best part was, I were playing with the kids since nobody take care of them. Then, we agreed on doing punishment. So I said panggil die eonni. Although she was shy but that eonni heard it and straight talk to them. As usual I am the translator. The oppa so happy when the kids said oppa neomu meoshiseoyo... like heaven is waiting for them. I did talked with them a little bit. Time to check in the imigresen (sungguh melayu ejaan aku) Took last photo with oppa and asked for his email also hyeyeon eonni too. I felt so berat hati untuk balik Malaysia as if not enough. But what to do...

We reach KL at 5pm..... Till today I still smile whenever I think of him. I never really told about what happened between me and the oppa takot orang kata I PERASAN kan.. but as long as me and my mom knows cukup laa.. Even till today I keep on singing 우리 사랑했잖아 (We were in Love) sang by davichi and t-ara. Whenever I sing this song a smile will come automatically. Hope to see him soon.. One fine day...




Till next post... cherios~

KOREA TRIP 01/02/2012 - 06/02/2012 Part 2

Continue from Part 1 ....

 3rd Feb, Mount Seorak

Wake up around 6am (korea time) and by 7am put our bags at the bus and head out to breakfast. First stop, we went to the ski shop for rental the clothes and goggle for KW 57,000 (RM200) per person. I bought ski gloves cause it was totally cold. My hand were numb. We had lunch first on the way to the ski resort. Then continue our journey to the Oak Valley Resort [Oak Valley Resort Website]




 Once we arrive at the condo, put our stuff in our room and half hour later everyone gather at the lobby to go to the ski area. While everyone measuring their feet for the ski boots I went to the toilet and guess what! PMS!! red alert..Thank god my mom brought along with her extra pads. I took one from her and go to the market nearby and bought one. Very thin but long, I changed very frequent because I was over flowing. They sell those ultra slim I can't find the normal one. Regards to this situation I prefer Malaysia at that moments. hahahaha..The rest were learning ski and we went around the ski area to try out the food stalls food.  Again with the hot choco (I don't drink coffee) 붕어빵 a fish shape bread. We even wanna tried 만두 (dumpling) sadly the filling is pork. A few couples of time my mom asked whether wanna buy churros but I just don't feel like too. Later on around 5pm, head out to dinner. I still wandering why I can be full with that little of rice.





4th Feb, Oak Valley Resort

By, 7am we have to put our bags in the bus and head out to breakfast. Not much of a breakfast actually. For ME it was not delicious even the toast. Eat a little and went out for smoke. The kids were playing snow. hehehe take a few pictures then continue on our journey to the city SEOUL.




 Reach Seoul around 10am, we pass by the IRIS shooting the bomb scene then straight to the Korea Blue House (center of Korean politics). The architecture is SUPERB. We stop at N Seoul Tower also known as Namsan Tower at Namsan Park. At first, I don't want to go up the hill due to my over flowing period whenever I start to walked. But then, Uncle Amli give me a boost saying Let's go up together slowly. At last, I reach up at the hill. Basically if you watched Khuntoria We Got Married scene at 63 building, it is similar. Lots of couple lock their love wish and the view is great. You can see the Seoul city.



My mom never miss his favorite actor! [Jang Geun Seok] Next stop is Gyeongbok Palace. Main palace during Joseon Dynasty (1392-1910). The palace is so beautiful. Every roof is decorated with dragon symbol represents as the king. They have heater at the bottom of each palace.




We had lunch at Itaewon where most of the halal restaurant located. At Itaewon, we ate at the Indian restaurant and saw a cute guy. hehehehe... I'm the flirty one so I help Yana (Aunt Saedah's daughter) to take a picture with him. Plus, I started to get closer with 오빠 here. Since I don't go to the mosque, I hang out with him. He show me his picture in the past and a bonus six packs picture. feewwiitt~ hehehe...




Once everybody finish their prayer, we head down to Dongdaemun Market for shopping. It is a wholesale and retail market. Shop for quite a lot.. office mates, siblings and performance accessories.. hehehe.. all together reach around RM500. It was worth paying all that. Settle here, we went to LOTTE World. Been trying to call SEULGI (10 Minute Crew member) but it was quite hard. We supposed to meet in front of the Lotte World. I asked 혜연 언니 if I can lent her phone but still it was engage. But GOD loves us and meet us. I really miss her. She getting pretty. hehehe... I will continue on the story at Lotte World and our last day at Korea in Part 3. Stay tune my people.. wooohhhooo~~



Still miss a few things in Dongdaemun Market. So little time we spent. It is not enough. If I saw the kedai yang jual kain mesti dah borong punya.... Till the next post yall~~ muahxxxxx

KOREA TRIP 01/02/12 - 06/02/12 Part 1

안녕 하세요!! 오랜만이다 ~ 잘지내세요?

I am so excited . 기뿐이 너무 좋아 ㅋㅋㅋ 왜?  I just complete one of my goals! Fly off to KOREA.
한국에 엄마랑 같이 갔었어서 너무 감사해..



1st Feb, KLIA


Our flight: 11.30pm, MH66. MAS baby!! We reached airport around 8.30pm and straight to check in the luggage at counter



There was a 아줌마 and 아저씨 nearby us. Hawa heard they said 쌍둥이 it means twins. Hawa looked at them and answer yes. They were quite surprise because Hawa could understand them. Then as usuall the normal question that korean will ask. Do you know how to speak korean? You speak korean quite well. This is the response that I keep getting while I was in Korea.


We did chat a little with them then we went off to MC DONALD'S for dinner. Enter the gate around 10.30pm. Like always hugging my younger sisters Hawa and Hajar before we depart. 

In the plane, there was not much that I did. Just listening to the music for a few hours before I shut my eyes. I woke up for some tea and breakfast then continue to sleep. What am I suppose to do for 6 hours in the plane anyway? hehehe...



2nd Feb, Incheon International Airport

Arrived at 6am. Quite early than that actually. The pilot must be flying real fast. We were under the Vacasia Travel Agency so saw the tour guide and the photographer. The tour guide said that we must wear our long john now cause it is totally freezing. I didn't wear it I choose to change my shoes ( I wore normal snickers than change to kinda boot sport shoes). As we all gather new the exit, I decided to go out and smoke. Once the door is open swooshhh~ the wind blow really strong. My mom went out just for a few minutes and went in. As for me, my cigarette does not taste anything (fyi, I smoke dunhill) then,, my hand start to feel numb, i straight matikan rokok and went it. Go to my bags and take out my scarf and gloves. Gosh it was -14c there. We went to the bus and keep our luggage. Oh forgot about my tour guide. I asked her korean name. 임혜연  her english name is Jenny. The photographer name is 최우진 or Shawn. Tour guide from Malaysia is Farah.



First we went to korean restaurant for our lunch at 10.30am. What an early lunch isn't it. It was 9.30am in Malaysia. We had a korean style lunch. It was FABULOUS. 


After finish eating, I went for smoke. I wanted to say hi to Shawn but dunno how so i start off asking him 우진씨 안추워요? (Mr.Woo Jin aren't you cold?) Like everyone else, he was surprise with my korean. He said I'm good. He meant by my pronunciation. Most of them said the same thing. Start from that moment, I keep on chatting with him. Most of the time, only me speaks to him besides that Jenny and Farra or The bus driver. The journey continue to Nami Island where Winter Sonata shoot their drama. We tried 호떡 bread fill in brown sugar and cinnamon. It was delicious to eat this during winter because it is warm.


 
 

Then later on we, went to 서락산 National Park. 


 Once we arrive on the peak, came out from the cable car guess what we saw! 2PM Nickhun and Taec Yeon advertisement board.


 
The scenery there!! It was breathtaking and COLD. So went to the cafe upstairs and eat 떡볶이 and 오뎅 yum yum yum...

We supposed to continue to the Buddha Temple but it was so cold I decided to go down and wait at the bus. But then after a few minutes I turn around and saw all of them follow us to the bus. It was seriously cold. My leg is hurt. The skin feel like tearing apart. We ate early dinner and went to Daepohang Fish market. Not for long, cause everybody was tired. We bought Dried Squid. It taste like chicken. It's like squid jerky or something like that. If you drink beer while chit chat i think this is nice to eat.




Last stop CONDO. OMG! the condo was so so so so nice. Even Malaysia never supply the equipments such as rice cooker, plates, spoon and spatula even pot and pans. Once we checked in, watched tv SBS Kpop Star was on at that moment. So we watched till fall asleep. Continue to part 2.. Oh yeah, we had an early dinner before that.. hehehe


  
 


Now 1.08am, I need to sleep. WORKING.. So will continue part 2 tomorrow.. Part 2 will be day 2 & 3 and the ski resort and the start of Seoul tour.. nity nite.. 추무세요... 잘자..
