Soulful Seoul- Day 2

was really lazy to blog because I have to make sure all my info are correct haha
so this day was gangnam day~ 
our first stop was garosugil @ shinsadong

 selfie in the hotel room before heading out

sinsa station ( Line 3) Exit 8
just walk straight after exiting the station until you see SK telecom on your right then turn left after that shop and you're on garosugil 

if you're looking for Line friends shop, just keep walking straight and it's just a few shop after hollister

 along garosugil and it reminded a lot of ginza
the quaint and obviously the more "expensive" place compared to hongdae or myeongdong
 it's like the Bangsar in Seoul 
 tadaaa..line store
 typical picture with huge brown
 so cute laaaa the whole store was filled with line merchandises but very pricey though
 line macarons
brown brownie~! so cute! 
I only bought a brown cookie because everything in there was so expensive but i wanted to get something to prove that I came hahaha 
*excuse to spend money*
 random 3D picture along the street
 looking for lunch but everything here is expensive so we wandered into the back alley and found a small local shop that serves sam gye tang =D 
 my cutie <3 and we were the only foreigners there but luckily I could read korean so it's all good 
 so many ban chan! and the sam gye tang was awesome! 
reminded me why I liked it so much when I last went to seoul 10 years ago 
 went into A land to buy my bro's snapback 
 just strolling along the streets and we stumbled upon
 jeng jeng~ o'sulloc! one place that I really wanted to try 
 just day dreaming and the toilet there was very clean 
tried their greentea swissroll and ice cream
wanted to try their softserve but this branch doesn't hv it =( 
But I love the cream inside the swiss roll so creamy <3 
me and my brother always joke that we should bring in o'sulloc because we love it so much hahaha 
but who can afford ? == 

 Coex atrium was our next stop just right next to coex mall which is the largest underground mall in Asia
Samseong station ( Line 2) exit 5 or 6 depending whether you want to enter coex mall or coex atrium 
this is for all the fangirls and boys out there
I was an ELF but i outgrew the whole star chasing phase but still I wanted to go take a look since I was their fan what 
but to my disappointment, I feel like it caters more to EXO-L rather than other fan bases


 large posters everywhere
 you can even go for tours and classes or make overs but it's not cheap TBH 
 they even have a cafe and the queue was horrendous
everyone are obviously there for their idol only 
 food and drinks with their face or song names on it 
 bum in front of a large screen showing shinee's MV 
 i think we left the building after an hour or so then headed to coex mall
 so cute
 we went to the hyundai department store 
so many interesting pastries and fooodddddd 
I love browsing at beautiful looking food and desserts *drools* 

 so many cakessss 

 then we happened to pass by a hyundai shop that showcases their new car models and we got to experience their car simulator which was quite fun and it's free hahahaha *cheap thrills* 
 Lotte world! no laa...we just went there for lotte mart
Jamsil Station ( Line 2, 8 ) Exit 4
and I'm amazed by how big lotte is in Korea
literally all the buildings around there are owned by Lotte =O 
Lotte mart! 
didn't buy much but bought mandu and taco bells for our impromptu "picnic" at yeouido park 
Yeouido station (Line 5 ) exit 3
just exit the station and walk straight until you see the sign below, you'll have to cross a huge main road

 reached there but it's already dark =( and we witnessed a car accident
apparently in Korea, you're not supposed to move your car until the police come for proof sake even when you're causing traffic congestions 
 our "picnic" 
if only we were a bit earlier it would be much much better but it gets dark really early here since it was already autumn 

 a huge plane in the middle of the park 
people watching while eating
after finishing our "snacks" we walked around and guess what?
we found two two chicken while talking about two two chicken hahahaha
so we had our "chimek" moment
 the boss was very friendly and this bum was practicing how to say bill please in korean to show off hahaha 

 our fried chicken and cass beer
not bad but i feel like kyochon does it better 
went back to our hotel area and we found a hidden gem
streets full of restaurants and noraebang (karaoke) 
we were so stoked and excited and vowed to come back here for dinner the next day

that's the ending of day 2 and we were knackered! almost 20km of walking =O
