Korea Trip Day 6 : Busan --> Seoul --> Hongdae -->Sungshin Women University --> Dongdaemun History and Culture Park --> LED rose garden

Day 6 :



Wake up early to get ready for our flight back to Seoul. Went to the cafe at the hotel but it's still early and they are still preparing to open. The staff saw us walking in and told us to wait for awhile and they start to fasten their preparation. 

Near by our hotel there is airport bus to the airport which save our trouble carrying our luggage up and down the subway station! 
While waiting for our bus, there is a taxi driver who keep asking us to board his cab and he will charge us same price as the bus, so we thought if that's the case why not since it's faster and same price. BUT.... When we board the cab, he say he want us to pay abit more! We straight away reject him and told him to stop the car right away to drop us. He ended up kind enough to drop us at the next airport bus stop and lucky we still manage to catch the airport bus that we are initially waiting. This teach us a lesson not to anyhow board the taxi. 


Bye Busan! See ya again!
Back to Seoul now!

Still too early for check in so we left our luggage in our apartment while the ahjuma is cleaning the house. 
Not able to check in so we walk around hongik area and also have some lunch. 


Had kimchi fried rice, pork cutlet and kimbap to share among the both of us and we over estimated our tummy! Haha! Couldn't finish everything! 
Looks like a fast food restaurant but food was not that bad.


Walk around and found a street of graffiti art! Remind me of my old school campus where everywhere was painted with graffiti!

We always shop at the Main Street and have never been to this area of hongik before! There is a lot of shops here too. 

Look at this cute dog with his cute clothes! Model of the stall! 

Finally it's time to check in! Big and cosy studio apartment! Have all we need here too! Located above the hongdae station exit 3, super convenient location!

The view of hongik from our window!

The host, Minji is very nice to also provide the portable wifi device! Actually I already know it beforehand that's why the wifi device that I rent ends today too. 

Rest a bit, enjoy the aircon and a cup of ice americano first before heading out to return the wifi device that we rented.

After returning the device, we went to Sungshin women's University street to explore. This is a place that we have not been to too!
Randomly this guy is dancing in the middle of the streets! 


While shopping around I saw "my" shop! Haha! 


So cute! The doggy family! 


Dinner time! Not aritaum of course, but the restaurant upstairs.


Dinner for today will be the army stew! This is also one of the food Korean normally eat. This is my first time eating a Korean army stew so I'm not sure is the taste consider good or not but it taste not bad to me. Maybe I shall find more army stew in my next trip so that I can compare.

Continue our shopping!

After a short shopping, cafe hopping time! This time round is the rilakkuma cafe but it's called as Capicapi Loom Loom.





It's a small cafe filled wit rilakkuma bear! Not a fan of the bear so we didn't buy any merchant from the cafe.


The sky is dark and time to head off to somewhere else!

This is the famous Dondaemum design plaza! Beautiful at night!


We are actually here for the LED rose garden. The whole area are filled with led light roses on the floor! So beautiful! Many locals are here to take pictures with the beautiful roses.





Many couple are here for a romantic dating too! And again what a torture scene for the single ladies! Haha!





Soooooooooo many roses! 

How to go : Dondaemum history & culture park exit 1

Ok, now to our last station! 

Ice cream time! The remicone is inside doota building, level 1. But what so special about their ice cream? 



Tada!! Cotton candy ice cream! They have other flavor too!

Back to hotel and chill in front of our big television!
