I spent my first two days here in Korea at the house of my friend, Sorae. She was very kind to feed me (home-cooked Korean food! Yummy!!) and tour me. We visited Myeongdong, passed by Chonggyecheon stream and spent some time at a very huge bookstore named Kyobo Bookstore.


After Kyobo, while walking to our next planned stop, Insadong, we passed by Gwanghamun Square.



We continued walking…

The palace looks like it isn’t a place to be missed. Fortunately, we were able to purchase tickets. Yay!
Finally, my favorite structure in the area…

After our historical tour, we headed to Insadong as previously planned and had our dinner at the famous Miss Lee Cafe (shown in We Got Married). Unfortunately, most of the establishments were already closed (I was looking forward to visit Ssamziegil!) so we went to Hongdae instead. Too bad my phone’s battery’s already drained so there were no pictures. Aww. There will be a next time for sure!
The whole day was tiring but fun! Thanks to Sorae for the whole day adventure and to her family for accommodating me! ^^
