MissyMeTour: KOREA suMMer Trip - DAY 2

Bersambung lg kite.. eheh~ maknanya byk jugak lagi entry2 bakal menyusul coz lama jugak ak spend time di sane..

Selamat menjulingkan mate!~ XD

Oh.. ni lupa nk attach at previous entry. Ni gmbr our 1st dinner at Korea, kitorg mkn Ramen iaitu, MAGGI yer kwn2. hihi. mak ak xsuke maggi2 ni, tp die enjoy jer mkn jugak. rare ni mak. xsame mcm 'megi mls' yg kite msk kt Malaysia k. hihi~

Day 2 at SouthKorea

Di Korea, tmpt utk visit mmg agak dekat2 jer sbnrnya, tp nk jalan kaki tu TAKLAA kn.. haha. Yg paling penting, line subway & buses sgt2 interactive. SUPERB baq hg. Sbb tu dorg dpt pengiktirafan on "The best public transportation in d world."

So hari ke 2, starting our 'Backpacker Trip' to Nam Sam Tower~ using subway & bus.. Hari tu, mmg agak penat la berjalan. AND SOMETHING 'BAD' happened to us actually. Huhu~

Saje je nk wefiee2 here.. hihi~ Dorg pon layan kn aje peel ak ni. :p

d newly brides wif mom at Ewha Women's University (Edae) Subway station.

Lps turun dr subway, kena amik bus plak utk ke Nam Sam Tower. Tak ingat plak berhenti kt mana n tggu bus di stesen mana. hiu~ Sementara nk tggu bus, kitorg pon posing la ber round2 hendaknye.. hihi~ SEVERAL pictures as per below. :p

Tips:

1. Can estimated bus sampai bile by check on d system thru phone. Canggih kan. Mmg terbaik laa. Kalo di beri kesempatan utk migrate to oversea, rsnye boleh consider la if nk stay here. (err. ak riso psl NorthKorea jer. huhu~)

2. Pakai kasut sport/jogging/walk or erti kata ringan utk elak sakit kaki mcm ak. uwerks.. haha. Adek ak tegur bila dh sampai kt airport, mmg taklah ak standby kasut lain selain slipar. (T__T) maka, ak pon grab casual shoe tp SGT2 RINGAN and best laaaa dipakai utk berjalan jauh. Harganya KRW24000. (tu consider murah sgt dah tuuu. hmmphh.). n belanja mak satu since die pon berkenan jugak. Pattern ak beli tu rupa2nya HotSeller. :D sbb kat MyeongDong ade tulis gitu, n harganya paling murah ak survey KRW30000. Kasut yg dimaksudkan as per picture below.

View on d other side~

Di belakangku ade universiti (tak ingat nama :p ) and lake. i love d scenery so much.

Masa belajar archy dlu, ak suke dgn design with element 'TRANQUILITY'. patut ade trip ke Korea utk case study dulu. XD

Auntie baju ungu tu dok tgk2 ak, sambil ckp 'yebbeoyo'. Then our translator, Mdm Pijah pon cube 'sedaya upaya' bersembang dgn die (sbb xbape nk fhm bhs korea coz xpraktis).. then explain to us. Ingatkan die dok kondem ak ke ape sbb pkai tudung (stigma pelik non muslim, n ak dh biasa sgt ditegur on this - ak xslhkan dorg pon, coz i know dey're curious, tp ade yg sampai insult mmg iolls a bit pns hati laa.) tp rupa2nya die ckp ak CANTIK! kah3. "omma yebbeoyo (mak cantik), ttal yebbeoyo (anak cantik)" lebih kurg gitu laa. Thanks auntie! :p rsnye xdela lawa, tp manis tu ade kn. kikikii~ and she has been come to Malaysia backs to several years ago, menurut translator ku~

Nam San Tower (known as NseouL Tower)

Gambar ni di ambil setibanya di Nam San Tower. perghhh, rupa2nya nak ke tower tu kena naik bukit almost 75 deg curam nye.. semputtt~

Haha. actually dh pancit dah ni, 1/3 way to go.. rest satt sambil suh adek amik gmbr. :D

as for reverse psychology therapy org kata. hee~

Err. xde la percaya benda ni, juz amik kesempatan to spread my inner feeling jerr. well, as a sentimental & art people like me. hihu~

Kat Nam Sam tower, tu je la kot 'usual' activity org buat, psg padlock, n view d Seoul city. mmg nmpk clear satu bandar. and kt sini, kitorg turut amik kesempatan to try dis famous food - Churros with strawberry ice cream. so nyummy!

Itaewon

Sebelum solat, lunch dulu kt restoran ni. Di khabarkan, owner restoran ni buka cawangan di Bangsar, KL. wah2. (^^,)b and our lunch has been served by Malay girl (student who is working part time here) and ofcoz Malaysian! hihi. KAMSAHAMNIDA. (thank you)

me at d most famous spot (for picture) at Seoul Central Masjid.

P/s : Kat Itaewon, ak ade jumpa mart yg jual Banana Milk (KRW1000), Pepero (KRW8000 for 8 boxes) & seaweed (KRW15000 big pack) dgn harga yg MURAH seperti dlm kurungan yg ku mention ituu. Harga kt luar mahal KRW300 -500 cmtu. (very BIG different if your convert in MYR). Tapiii, alaa, xamik la pulak nama kedainye. tp xbyk pon mart kt situ, juz try ur luck k. hihu~

Namdaemun Market

DAN, inilah masa yg di tunggu2, shopping at NAMDAEMUN MARKET!! hihi.. Souvenir SUPERMURAH compare to d other place in Seoul. Dlm bggn putih tu, ak shopping bykk jugak lah. hihi~ Berhabisan puluh2 RIBU won Korea. (^^,!) Antaranya; sudu+chopstik, nail clippers, tote+sling bags, brooches. and tshirt beli kt gerai luar which is 3 helai KRW10000. Psr ni pon ade jual buah2 rare kt Malaysia (ikut musim Korea). We'd try d big plum (nama sebenar entahlah. hihi), berharga KRW 5000 for 7 pcs. murahh murahhh~

BARANG2 yg ak grab will be post on d last entry k. SO, ak belanja gmbr adek ak dari belakang dulu buat tatapan! hihii~

THEN.. terjadilah insiden terhadap kami.. hmm. Utk pulang ke GuestHouse, kitorg perlu naik Subway. Tiba di satu station ni, org mula ramai n berpusu2 masuk train. Sampai d Edae Station, kami pon berasak2 utk keluar. tapii... mak tiba2 ter 'stranded' dlm tren, tak boleh nk bergerak sbb org terlalu ramai dan sesak d muka pintu. Dan pintu terus tertutup rapat bawak mak pergi... Huwarghh~ ttbe ak rs sebak plak, sbb kenapa bkn ak yg terkandas kt dlm tu. serius weyy ak rs nk nanges (T__T) sebelum tren bergerak, ak sempat buat isyarat, "mak turun kt next station, kitorg dtg amik!!" mak seakan fhm, tp die ckp sbrnye die xfhm isyarat ak buat! lol. haissh. funny plak bile teringat balik. hikhik.

Adeq n AdeqIdham pon pegi la cari mak, tapi dorg dtg balik kt ak xlama lps tu TANPA MAK! huwarghhh! lagi la ak rs nk meroyan kt situ. oh my OMMMAAA (mak)!!!~ kt Korea ni, org nye xbape fasih english. so mcm ckp ayam dgn itik la. dlm dok kalut2, pk cmne nk find mak, ttbe adek iparku jerit. "Akak, bc msg whatsapp dr mak!. cpt2!"

"eh," getus ak, terkejut gak, sbb kitorg punya la risau mak xde any 'source' nk online seems moderm wifi kt kitorg!

Adoyylaa.. luckily PUBLIC WIFI kt sekitar subway station TIPTOP! ak bg 5 HA la, coz 'you' really saved us on dat day! KAMSAHAMNIDA!! mak ckp, korean sume xlayan mak, bile tnye ni station ape, sbb nye dorg xpndai / malu berbahasa english (?) even simple question. and mostly tulisan yg tertera in Hangul (Korean) words. huhu~ Luckily, ade japanese man helps mom. AND naseb baik jugak mak pon pandai!. wewitttt~ xsampai 5 minutes, Adeq & AdeqIdham bwk mak kembali ke pangkuan kami. huhu~ drama sgt kn. hukhuk. alaaakkk, makk. kalo mak xbalik guesthouse mlm tu, sapa nk teman cheq tdoq. :((

at d Edae station, while waiting for my omma to be rescue.. waitt d minute, spot on d right below of d picture, sumeone wearing same shoe as me. kikikii~

Mlm tu, kitorg dinner di sebuah restoran berhampiran GuestHouse, ALCHON restaurant. Kitorg makan 'Albab', one of d Bibimbap menu ('Al' mean ikan). AdeqIdham kata ianya mcm nasi dagang/kerabu sbb nasi kna gaul2 dgn sume perencah bru makan, tp kitorg pggl 'nasi goreng sendiri'. d food so nyummy! n menu pedas die mcm Nando's, sbb ade bberapa tahap pedas utk d order. highly recommended cuba. (^^,)b Gmbr xamik sbb terlalu menikmati mknn kami malam tu. hehe.

Tips

1. Bwk padlock dr Malaysia, sbb kt sane a bit pricy to buy unless xkesah dan nk jugak "MadeinKorea' or as for kenangan Nseoul. For me, it is juz a symbolic of love, xde niat lain hingga jatuh khurafat.

2. Mmg xde tmpt lain dh offer brg2 murah except Namdaemun market. Kt Nam Sam Tower ade jugak souvenir KRW1000 for 1 pcs (plg murah) antaranya, bag's tag, can opener cum fridge magnet & sticker (if im not mistaken). So ak ade la grab souvenirs (yg ak rs berbaloi) dlm KRW30000 kt Nseoul Tower tu.

3. Namdaemun market offer mcm2 jenis souvenir. AND a person like me yg suke grab something for my small circle of friends, mmg rambang mata. Sumeee laa nk buyy! hihi.

4. Alert on d route plan where you wanna go etc. (yg ni kitorg apply SELEPAS kejadian subway tu.) KAH3. Lps tu jenuh la kitorg tnye AdeqIdham, even die dh bg itinerary, lps ni pegi mana, tren turun mana, pintu kiri ke kanan, tkr tren kt mana. haaa, amik! tp sbnrnye sng jugak bc route plan subway tu KALAU STUDY betul2. hihi~

5. Stamina, mental & psychically harus kuat (ayat agak cliche kn. haha) n rsnye apply d mana2 la. kental utk hadapi any UNEXPECTED incident gitu.

6. Lupa pulak nk habaq. Kitorg sewa moderm wifi kt GuestHouse, instead beli line / sewa phone. Dlm KRW40000 jer if xsilap, tp kena letak deposit as cagaran. ak lupa berapa KRW sbb kitorg bg dlm bentuk MYR200. (luckily ACCEPTED!). Kalo gune KRW mcm mana nk shopping nnt ken. (--,!)

Ni juz nk bgtau, betul la dr bacaan/google(ing) ku, advertisement for plastic surgery is everywhere in Korea. Cume mgkn ak xperasan sgt, dikatakan korean people selamba jer berjln2 dgn muka berbalut slps have dat treatment. yg ak perasan some of them tutup acne/luke dgn plaster yg seakan2 warna kulit dorg. tu ak perasan! byk sgt. ehehe~ Kat sini, ak juz nk mention, Korean mmg OBSES dgn kecantikkan. so do i! errr. hihi. and teknologi dorg mmg CANGGIH, jauhh la ke hadapan. ak rs dorg ikut Japan (even dorg xsuke Japan sbb negara matahari terbit tu pernah serang dorg. bc la sejarah nye. pjg plak hakak nk explain kn. hihi)

Well, DRAMA subway tu agak menggelikan hati kitorg, xabes2 bercerita d sepanjang perjalanan balik guesthouse. sampai la nk tdo pon, ak n mak asik gelak terkekek2 teringat drama "Memori musim panas di bumi Sonata". eheh~
