Spring Sonata

We visited Nami Island and Chuncheon during a weekend trip and had great fun. The places were the filming sites for the korean drama Winter Sonata. Bay (our taiwanese friend) was the tour guide for the day and others include the usual Singaporeans, Mansy, Michael, Nam and Kai from Holland.




The journey to Nami Island was quite tedious actually as we had to take the subway, train, taxi and then ferry to reach it. But the journey was worthwhile as we got to see the nice scenery around the island. Some of the memorable scenes from the drama are above... Do you remember them?

Our last stop was a meal at Chuncheon where we ate the famous takgalbi (bbq chicken) and did some sightseeing at Chuncheon's Myeondong ( there's another one here in Seoul). Takgalbi is the specialty food in Chuncheon and there is a street called takgalbi street where the whole street is lined with takgalbi restaurants.

And lastly, thank you Bay for being our guide and Engteck for the photography! =)
