awhile before i left korea
some days the weather was so amazing, other days, gloomy, cloudy, and depressing.
went to yeouido, visited the 63 building and saw the view of seoul from up high. as we were taking the lift up it smelt kinda musty and funky… oh korea, you and your funky (aka not so nice) smells don’t surprise me anymore. i can’t wait for winter to come to musk out the terrible stenches… we took a bus to yeouido, surprisingly it was pretty near sinchon, maybe about 15minutes. and yay to avoiding the million and one flight of stairs in the subways haha. buses are kinda dangerous tho, the way korean drivers (can’t) drive… a while back some public CNG bus “exploded” and severed a woman’s legs D: anyway we made it safetly and waited for a free shuttle bus.
reminds me of wynn casino in macau
sadly it was a cloudy day and we couldn’t see the sunset nor see very far (tho we did spot namsan tower)
i’m not sure if these are private estate or public housing? in singapore/hong kong houses that look like that are probably public but in korea it is weird… anyway right next to the han river and in yeouido it is probably pretty pricy
hi han river you are massive
abrupt change to good day weather
hello SM town concert that lasted for a full 7 hours it was great it was awesome i had some fun but i don’t know it was weird and my ears were tired from hearing screaming shinee fans non-stop… also i guess i was disappointed at how snsd were treated :’( makes me feel kinda.. awww for the girls.. oh well
check out the toilet queue it was crazyyyyyyyy
some banners and one said “yoona plz don’t go to japannnnnn” haha and the taemin banner was like “noonas onegaishimasuuu” ugh i don’t know how to translate that properly… lol
as the sun began to set we could see the moon it was prettay, also all the light sticks that glowed… too bad i couldnt see the upper deck that was above me i could have witnessed the amazing red sea or smth… (crazy dbsk fans…..)
oh yuri you made my night u so fineeeeeee :D
and then the concert ended at 11pm everything that happened then is now a blur, i think i had fun tho. it wasn’t really expensive and i think i had pretty good seats. didn’t need binoculars or anything haha. tiring tho. and when it ended everyone made their way to the subway station. we could take either direction of the train back because it was just as far, so we just randomly chose one direction. and sucks, cos we saw 3 trains come for the opposite direction and we couldn’t cross over cos it was on the other side and would have to pay again… and what sucked even more was that the train came to a halt after about 7 stops… we didn’t even make it halfway through (21 stops to home)!!!! everyone got chased out of the trains and were told that train services have ended… WTF?! everyone was like otddeokhae?! and just really dumbfounded… it was about 1215 i suppose and a saturday night! imagine all the young girls who have no money to take the cab home… anyway everyone got out and just lingered around the station, i saw some girls just sit on the floor spacing out lmao. anyway we took forever to find a cab cos everyone was taking cabs too… finally got back to sinchon at about 1+am and met up with jessie and her boyfriend to have DINNER lmao. it was a long day we were all tired hot, sticky, sleepy and also hungry. also the cab ride back was kinda scary, driver was speeding and he didn’t even put on his seatbelt lol
1 and half days later and i’m on my way to the airport; ticket back to singapore (SQ’s beef stew is mighty yummy fineeeeeee)
and then it was rainy again in seoul right before i left. feels good to be back in singapore right now. so much to eat so much to do, still as hot, but its good. being in korea makes me appreciate home much more. i guess you never know how to appreciate things only after you have lost them. korea is still a good experience tho, i’m gonna stick it up and get through it and get as much from it as possible.
