I have just had an epic weekends in Seoul and Ski Resort! Our day start on Saturday and we have organized a 18 ppl trip (6 NTU + 8 NUS + 4 others) LOL. We start the day by boarding the bus at 11.00am and we reached the East Seoul Bus Terminal at around 2. Our first station is anguk area where the Gyeongbokgung is just nearby! We got a free tour guide on the exit of the train station and it just awesome to have tourguide around. We entered the Gyeongbokgung area and we saw the Shift Changing Ceremony, what a lucky day! Ok lets talk about the history of this famous aeGyeongbokgung a little bit. This palace is build by the Taejong King and it has been burned down during Japanese Colonial Era and finally refurbished recently. There are alot of nice building design of Korean traditional style and there are some imaginary animals called? Ermm haha i have forgotten, nvm lets move on to the Hanbok wearing session! We got it free by just signing up at the both, by the way I was the last customer! What a lucky day indeed.
Guess where am I! haha I am the blue soldier!
Next, we head on to Insadong, an area reknown for its artistic atmosphere where there are plenty of shops selling DIY accesories, and all art-related goods such as chopstick, poultry etc. The night in Insadong was a memorable one as nights sprawled over the place, the subzero cold air was warmed by the hearts of all ppl walking through the road, some with laughter, some holding each other in couple. After an expensive yet delicious dinner (costs us around 17,000 won each), I ran to the mrt and took on a Incheon International Airport Railway in order to return my long-rent cellphone. The whole journey took me 2 hours to and fro and the cellphone charged me for around 126,000 won!
We have settled down for the night in Dragon Hill Spa (Sound impressive huh) for 12,000 won each. This place is really awesome and it has more entertainment than the one I went in Seoul. It provides arcade like DanceMania, House of the Death 4, basketball shooter, and they even have K-box inside. I spent another 7,500 won on this irresistible temptation to enjoy a K-box session (SNSD songs of course), a milk, and a ass massaging chair (I wonder why the massage chair focus on ass massaging lol). We slept at 3 and woke up at 6 plus to prepare ourself for the FUN SKIING DAY!
It was actually the last day of GangCheon Elysia Ski Resort promotion, and we spent only 36,600 won only for entrance fee+equipment+ski costume, and there is free shuttle bus and direct train all the way from Yongsan Station! What a great deal, special thanks to Geri Tiew's friend. It was my first skiing experience, full of surprises and joy! We spent 1 hour on selecting equipment, where we have to measure our foot size (mine is 260mm!), height, weight and some index according to the table given. After that, we started our journey of skiing! I spent only 2 hours on the beginner track and I challenged the intermediate track which is much much more steeper than the beginner one! Of course, I tumbled for several times and fell over the fence for once (with ppl shouting but no one is helping :()! Haha I could say that I have mastered the beginner skill of skiing and lets come and challenge me!
It was really a fun-filled day, and it ended with a wonderful meal at the bus terminal where we have to pay only 6,600 won each to enjoy the delicious Samgyeopsal (3 layer pork) and a seafood pot with all sorts of clamp, prawn and crab inside! Luckily we were able to catch our bus on 8.40pm exactly on time and here we went back safely to our lovely Daejeon :)
