Day 2 - SEOUL NICE

   Day two we cross over to Nandaemun (the place we stay is just so close to any other places), a whole sale street market which they sell lots of stuff there, from wholesale jewelry market to all sorts of clothing (but if you wanna get clothes this is not the cheapest place to get) ranging from kids ages to elderly clothing not forgetting they got many street foods which really taste good. We walk all the way to look for breakfast, deciding what is good in seoul, eventually we arrived at the doorstep on PARIS BAGUETTE and singapore is just about to open one...yes just one, we enter the store with a warm greeting from the staff there. I need my coffee in the morning and yes I need it if not my mood won't be any good. 


 they have such a cute concept for the cups!

After breakfast we head over to the train station, just then we were figuring how do we get there till Mandy told me that there is a one way trip card then we bought a trip to samseong station, we wanna go to seoul's aquarium, Mandy's wishes to travel to all countries to visit the aquarium. So we manage to find out how to go thru the map (it's important to get a map from the airport to find your way out), upon arriving there we were so excited even thou Mandy face is always blank but she is excited about it. We walk quite awhile to find the the aquarium which is in the mall, but we were walking around the mall and there is TOPTEN which is like out basic stores in singapore like hangten, I saw a huge poster of 2NE1 for addidas, TOP from bigbang for FUBU. Then the aquarium.

to samseong station, we need to change alot thou

the stations include gas mask in case of....

people actually queue up


See! she is so excited!!! hahah





we ended our aquarium journey within an hour, don't remember eating lunch at Coex mall, we though of eating korean food so both of us agreed to head to Dongdaemun early cause mandy told me that there are lots of food over at Dongdaemun so we head over there.


Didn't manage to find any legit food there not because they don't have it, many stores wasn't open yet. In the end we managed to got into a very small shop to have our Kimchi Jjigae, spicy and sour veg soup(awesome food in seoul) Lunch taken! 




the socks are the craziest wholesale over at dongdaemun! (but they all look so cute and nice)

Walking around dongdaemun is a little tricky, you need the right direction there to the malls and the malls have timing there which you need to find out more, it's a monday when we were there and we ended up walking around the place with no direction to head to and end up in a tourist information booth, the guys are pretty friendly and they speak basic english or chinese (thank god!). He told us that the two biggest malls, Doota mall and Milgore is not open and we can try the other two malls which is HelloAPM and Good morning city, I love HelloAPM and they really got lots and lots of fashion stuff in there. Look at our buy~ 


dongdaemun at night...

coffee break after long shopping hours at hello apm and good morning city(i was feeling sleepy)

Dinner(gogi-jip) at Dongdaemun street, the place which we walk by not sure how many times

was about 7pm and the place is filled with people

we were so tired and decided to head back to our hostel to rest early.

by pass this place early in the evening and was so quiet and the place was actually close, but in the night the place turn into a hell with bags and bags of ...don't know what is inside.

so we were back in the hostel resting for day 3 sightseeing, trying not to overspend.
