KOREA TRIP #3

31st December 2013: 
woke up late today! 
then because edlyn went out to meet her brother for lunch, we continue with the preparation of her birthday surprise! 
fang dawn and junde went out to buy her birthday cake while me rebecca dexter blow the balloon, paste it and etc.! 
then they also bought lunch for us! 
so was suppose to meet edlyn at 2/3 (can't rmb) at dongdaemun station but because we were all too engrossed in the preparation we went late.... 
then anyway, before we head out, dexter went to the toilet first, then he took out his big coat and simply put it on the stool.
qifang came out from our room and saw this and she went OMG what is dexter doing. 
ended up its actually just his coat only.
but actually the picture really look like he's kneeling down!! 
like look at that hand too...!! 

ok so anyway reached dongdaemun!
the wholesales area! 
didn't buy any thing there cause everything is like the same and it was very squeezy....
no mood to look through..
so we were all tired from walking around the wholesales area, and then we wanted to eat some koreanbbq!
so was feeling tired and all, we continued walking over to the retail area that seems livelier and also to try our luck to see if we could find some koreanbbq stall! 
( dongdaemun has two area, one is the retail area while another is the wholesales area!)
saw this on the way!! 
DISCO JUMP! 
the one that running man play before de!! 
we were just walking on the street when we spotted this!
stand there for like 15mins to look at them play.
stand there see only i already giddy can't take it already, imagine if i play.... i think i will puke non stop....
reached the retail side like finally!! 
bytheway, it's only 6pm???? but the sky is already so dark...!! 
short days long night! 
we walked into this mall and we spent like two-three hours....
CRAZY SHOPPING TIME!! 
but the items really no joke cheap!!
our shopping bags...!! that's only a few of ours + we stuffed plastics bag into plastics bag...!!
totally forget about the hunger and keep on shopping. 
when we are finally done with our shopping, headed outdoor to look for food! 
arrived at a korean bbq restaurant! 
if i rmb-ed correctly, it's only 15800 wons per person.... SUPER CHEAP OK!! 
comparing the price to singapore's kbbq......!!
I ATE THE RAW VEGE WRAP WITH THE MEAT OK!! 
wah feel so accomplished when i ate it cause i don't, i emphasise, I DONT eat raw vegetables.
so, stayed at the restaurant for quite a long time, then cause i feel like peeing, used that excuse to go out of the restaurant and also to buy cake! 
me and rebecca totally freezing when we get out of the restaurant..
cause i only wore my hoodie with my TSHIRT and she with her long sleeve and pullover..
ran to holly's coffee to buy a slice of cake and then toilet there before heading back to the restaurant..
literally we run walk run walk + shivering because it was really super cold....
was actually thinking of how to pass edlyn the cake but heng when we went in, she just nice not there, cause she went to the restaurant's toilet, which was located at the second floor.
dawn hid the cake and then when the clock hit 12am, +7GST, we wished her HAPPY BIRTHDAY! 
sang a rather awkward birthday song, & then eat the cake, stayed for awhile more before leaving there! 
with birthday girl! 
the slice of cake... looks so pathetic, sorry edlyn but better things are behind yeah! 
the restaurant that we have our super late dinner at!
oh ya, 2 interesting happened.
1) we saw a group of boys that are all SUPER handsome!!!! 
they really look like some company trainee i swear!! 
then got one ahjussi walked behind of edlyn, ( we are sitting just in front of the food) 
qifang go lie to her and say, the handsome one behind you.
edlyn immediately went, eh push me faster, make me fall then he can catch me..
seriously.... super funny can!!!!! 
2) because the restaurant we are at got china aunty who speaks chinese with us, then she went: 
拿那个肉上来,我帮你们刮
then junde hear until 夸
so he told qifang they all, eh, aunty ask you all to praise me.
then qifang was like for what? 
& he went cause i help you all bbq the meat la! 
then so they don't care cont. bbqing, then the aunty came again, now abit pekchek already, and she say 快点拿那个肉上来,我要刮
sudden realisation of what she meant earlier and all of us started laughing.

so anyway, cause we don't want to go home that early, we still got the shopping feel, we headed over to namdaemun! 
sigh only the food stall was opened, the clothes stalls and etc. were all closed...
so no choice had to go back.
tired us...
then afterwards headed to sauna near our area! 
pacify the aunty for quite sometime before she let us in! 
something happened as well but it shall be confidential.!!
when we go in, we changed and we wanted to go the sauna..
but then the ahjumma cleaning there told us we can't go in, its either do nothing or be naked to go in.
& we were all like WHUTTTTTT 
so we chose do nothing..
but afterwards, somehow, we actually found the mixed de, which there's a sauna and we can dont need to be naked! 
found the boys there as well, so we stayed together! 
inside super hot, had never sweat this much for so long man!!! 
good time inside! 
because at the sauna there really nothing to do, & I'm going to fall asleep already...
so me rebecca and dawn decided to go back first
i went to bathe first cause my eyes are literally shutting down..
then they set up and did the decorations! 
the walkway to....
THE SURPRISE!! 
pretty coloured balloons hanging up with our letters! 
when edlyn saw she was like: confirm some fake one right! 
不愧 is our clique member! 
HAPPY GIRL! 
HAPPY SWEET SIXTEEN!!!!! 
slept very late that night, but I'm the first to sleep though oops

1st January 2014: 
HAPPY NEW YEAR AND HAPPY BIRTHDAY EDLYN (once again)!!!
woke up pretty late, around 1+? 
junde had a hangover so he didn't join us in the afternoon part of the day.
went over to the dog cafe; bau house which is situated near our station! 
& 2NE1 was here before ( the cafe i mean ) !! but they went to the one before they shifted here.
still, same lah, shop same can already..
they shift here so we no choice can only come here right...!
first dog met at the entrance! 
ok pictures time! 
look at all the cute dogs running around! they are free to move!
all the dogs in the cafe! 
THIS IS THE CUTEST DOG THERE MAN I SWEAR!!!!! 
LOOK AT THE HEAD AND THE FUR SO FLUFFY!!!!!!!
want to hug it badly now sigh miss it so muchhhhhhhhh
so after heading to bau house, we actually wanted to catch the sunset at namsam tower but too late..
by the time we reach myeongdong, sky dark already. 
walked over to the namsam tower.
seems near yeah....
but it was NOT as near as you thought. 
finally arriving at the cable car placed! 
while queuing up! YAY EXCITED TO GO UP! 
the cable car ticket! 
already seeing some night view while queuing to get up the cable car! 
( sorry poor camera quality, half the picture is reflection...)
finally board the cable car and UP UP WE GO! 
reached!! group photo with the can't be seen scenery! 
thought we reached but no, we only reach the park, need to a little further up to reach the tower...
while walking to the tower! 
getting closer! 
beautiful tower!! 
some parts of namsam park! 
christmas is never late~~
so because we need to pay to go up to the observatory, we didn't.. 
most of us broke already...
need save money.
but our motive is to do the lock!!! so we went to try to find it and hope that its not up at the observatory.
& yay we found it woohoo!! 
pretty locks! 
& pretty view can!!! 
our pathetic small lock.... but it's okay. 
it may be small but surely it will be the outstanding one.
even though junde never join us to the tower, but it's ok we never forget you!!! 
something happened here as well, & it really prove that, our lock maybe small but surely it is outstanding!! 
swear it was ultra cold over at the lock there!!! 
all of us were like freezing even though we already wore thick thick!! 
so after we lock our friendship lock, took some photos, headed back! 
cause anyway we are meeting junde at myeongdong station! 
the cable car! 
way back.....
junde very funny sia, he go dk what exit 1, which is the most off exit from the rest. 
like of all the exit, 1-12 (?) , he chose 1.
the other exits are interconnected except for 1...
walked here and there till we find it...
finally met him and headed to myeongdong street to shop! 
but we were all very hungry so we decided to snack on the street food first!
( have not eaten anything except for drinking the drink at the dog cafe )
All the food super nice can!! 
sigh already missing the food there....
went into an etude house shop there and it was super pretty!!! 
it was the princess outlet!! 
there's triple storey and it was pink everywhere! ( not a pink fancy but it was really pretty )
TWIST POTATOOOOOOOOO 
super super super nice!!! 
by the time we finished eating ah, most of the shop closed already...
so we decided to go back..
walked to the end of the street, went down one underpass, don't know where we are walking also.
end up we actually walked ONE station already..
went to 7-11 to buy supper again and head home to eat and have our night talking session! 
but we didn't sleep that late because we gotta wake up early the next day and head to overland!
