Define Korea: Unforgettable

Enjoying Nami Island
Introducing Korea as my unforgettable travel story is very easy. Once you go there, you will notice a lot that makes her unforgettable. There are reasons why I mentioned that Korea is unforgettable. For me, all of these are memorable experiences in Korea.


Hanbok Wearing

I love this activity. This experience was the best since I couldn't wear this costume here at Philippines. I was not the only who was very happy and enjoyed. Our companions, too. All of us were laughing when we tried the hanboks. Some of us wore two types of costumes. My hanbok is a royal one. It could be a costume for Gong ju, a princess.

Fall in Korea
Leaves are all flying everywhere. This is what you call a Fall season. Experiencing autumn season is a first time for me. I live in a country where there are two seasons only. This was my first fall experience, and I'm very glad that I had it in Korea.


 Amazing Food

Eating in a Korean style is amazing one. Dining different kind of Korean food is always fun. Of course, they are all delicious.


Cable Riding

The feeling was so good. This was the first time I was able to ride a cable car in my entire life. I always hope that I could ride one before. Travelling to Korea makes it real.


Beautiful Nami Island

I've never been to an island before. That's why I got excited for this trip. Actually, visiting Nami Island was the first spot in our itinerary. It's worth of time. This was my first time to go to an island.


First Lunch Cruise

This was my another first time. Our lunch buffet cruise was very enjoyable for all of us. We had fun eating while enjoying the scenery of Han River at day time.


Reaching Mt. Seorak

After my first ever cable ride, we spent some time to enjoy the sight of Mt. Seorak. It is really beautiful. Unfortunately, we couldn't visit further part of the mountain because it's almost 6PM. The views are really fantastic.


 MBC Dramia: Unexpected shooting of "Horse Doctor"

It is one of the shooting places of historical Korean dramas such Jang Geum, Yi San, Queen Seon Deok and Dong Yi. Taking pictures in the magnificent shooting areas will be always a memorable one.

The "Horse Healer" or "Horse Doctor", a Korean drama, was currently shooting that time. Unfortunately, we didn't meet the main actors because they didn't allow us to be near at their shooting. It would be a great experience if we were able to take some photos with them. We only saw some extras, production staff and the vans of the actors.


 Happy Ice Carving

I'm not an artist. I grabbed the opportunity to learn and to carve an ice into a big cup. Carving an ice needs patience, so you can finish and drink a cup of juice. Taking a photo with it is definitely memorable.

 MOREOVER

 Happy seating to an ice toilet.
I really laughed when I saw this unique toilet. I didn't want to pass this chance to seat on an icey cold toilet. That's why I had a photo on it. 


 Half-Day: N-Tower & Gyeonbokgung Palace

Visiting N-Tower & Gyeonbokgung Palace made my last day in South Korea. These places are tourist spots. When you are in N-Tower, you can see the whole Seoul. I got amazed to the wall of couple's padlocks. I went inside the Gyeongbokgung Palace and listened to some historical stories from our tour guide. Our time was limited only. I hope I can watch some parades or show inside the palace next time.

 I took some video clips during our visit in Gyeongbokgung Palace.
 


South Korea is really a must visit country. I didn't only enjoy the tour, but we learned a lot about its culture. Hopefully, I can go back there soon to visit more spots and to know more about its nature, culture, cuisine and of course, to experience K-pop.
