Weekend Outing again~

We met up with the Korea University people again last weekend afternoon. This time we also had sn, my roomie, with us as well. The first place we visited was Myeong-dong. At Myeong-dong we went to Shinsegae, a high class shopping mall selling luxury brands. The place is really posh, so we had a good time window shopping there. Myeong-dong is a place where many Japanese visit in search of luxury goods, so the place has strong Japanese influence in terms of service, product display and packaging of products.




Next up is Namdaemun...



We also walked pass Seoul train station and took some pictures.







In the evening, we visited Korea University with the guide of the KU exchange students. The school is nice as it has beautiful scenery and some buildings really look like palaces.











To end off the day, we had a cosy dinner of hot plate (which consists of ramen, vegetables, ham, beef and spicy sauce fried in a pan) at an eatery called Biya just outside KU.


And on our way back, we bought face masks on the streets that cost 1000krw ($1.60) for 3 pieces. It was really a bargain as the quality of the mask is good and they smell nice too. Really satisfied with the buys~ =)
