Korea Spring, Day Five: Seoul, Korea

Day Five was a hectic one. We traveled from Jungmun to Jeju Airport early in the morning but it was raining cats and dogs.

We arrived at Gimpo Airport about 12noon already with a lil delay and stuff.

Took AREX to Gyeongbokgung station to our booked homestay.

1. Vine Hanok Guest House.

9 mins away from Gyeongbokgung station.

It was our first experience staying in a Hanok. Simply means Korean Traditional House.

The setting was lovely and really comfortable-looking. There are 4 rooms in this Hanok.

We were greeted by the host as we booked via airbnb web.

2. Tosokchun Samgyetang.

One of the very famous Samgyetang (Ginseng Chicken) in Seoul.

I am going back to Korea.. like tomorrow. Really!

I will surely visit Tosokchon again if my other members want to.

I can never, ever find such taste in Malaysia!!!!

3. Gangnam, til late.

Well, after dinner, we did not have any plans so we headed to Gangnam, just to chill.

Interesting mirror caught my attention.

Gangnam. High rise building everywhere. I can see Samsung HQ from here too.

Remind me alot of Bukit Bintang in KL, Malaysia.

Visited COEX Mall for the night.

There are numerous of branded outlets in COEX Mall, like MCM, Coach etc.

COEX Aquarium is located inside too. Unfortunately we did not manage to check it out.

It was raining. So we went home early.

Had snacks from Jaw Food nearby Vine Hanok Guest House.

It was awesome.

I really love Korean food, Korean snacks and all the other stuff.
