oh ya..been reading V1 till 30pages++
between Lotte World and Everland, its very troublesome for backpackers to go Everland right?need change bus and train?
which one is better?thx.

Just came back this morning!!
Bought a lottttt of beauty products but sadly clothes and shoes are expensive

hi guys, im going aound mid of september. what will the temperature be like? cause their spring started kinda late this year so I was wondering will it still be summer that time or will it be autumn. coz i plan to bring some coats over but wondering whether it's necessary to bring such heavy stuffs.

I can see that everyday at Sunway man. Lol.

Not so troublesome. The train ride is ok all the way to Gangnam, but the bus ride is quite long to wait. It states that the interval is every 15 minutes but we had to wait near 45 minutes. Maybe just my luck. The bus fare is only 1,800 won and it takes near 1 hour to arrive at Everland Resort. Then when you arrive there have to take a free shuttle to the main entrance. Please be aware that the bus drivers are like F1 racing drivers so hold on or wear your seat belts You can keep you bags at the locker near the entrance.

When I was there early May, the tulips were still blooming at the 4 seasons park. There were still some cherry blossoms around. But as expected the rose garden were all barren. Been to Lotte and Everland and we all agreed that Everland was much more fun so don't miss it.

Here are the latest K5 Hybrid...





I photograph these at the COEX Mall, so enjoy...

Yeah. The KIAs and Hyundais there are really nice and beautifully designed. SAdly wr get all the ugly looking ones in Malaysia.

Can anyone confirm to me that Gimpo airport (domestic airport in Korea) located in Gyeonggi do?? How far is Gimpo airport from Seoul??

i remember from dong seoul bus station going to gimpo is around 40min..

so please take 1 hour buffer as traffic is unpredictable..

I asked this because I plan to stay in Gyeonggi do after returning from Jeju. If Gimpo nearer to Gyeonggi do then I stay 1 nite there instead of returning to Seoul. Better for me to return to Seoul the next day.

Seoul Subway Line 5, 9 and Airport Railroad(AREX) stops at Gimpo airport. See this subway map. Gimpo airport, based on administrative area, belongs to Seoul. I don't know where you will stay at, but the travel time between Gimpo airport and Seoul station is about 30 minutes by subway. In short you don't need to worry about it.

Tks for your input. I plan to visit Geonggi do and now arranging my itinerary. That is why I wanted to know if is better to overnite in Gyeonggi do when I arrive from Jeju instead of going back to Seoul and return to Gyeonggi do again the next day. What do you think?? Should I just stay in Gyeonggi do upon arrival in Gimpo or back to Seoul and go to Gyeonggi do the next morning??

I can answer this when you specify the location. If you say only Gyeonggi do, it's so vogue. And as I said, Gimpo airport belogs to Seoul, and nearby cities are Gimpo, Bucheon, Incheon, Goyang, Gwangmyeong etc.

This is what I plan to do. My sisters and I have different departure day. I'll stay until Day 08 but they have only 06 days and we want to make use the limited time of the stay. My question if is better for us to stay at Gyeonggi do from Jeju on Day 03 rather than return to Seoul and come back to Gyeonggi do again the next day. From the map, I can see that Gimpo is not far from Gyeonggi do.

Day 01
Arrive Seoul at 0710hrs. Chk in at Myeongdong guesthouse. Visit Gyeongokbung Palace, Namsan Park, Namsan Tower, Myeongdong and Itaewon.

Day 02
First flight to Jeju

Day 03
Jeju to Gimpo flight 1500hrs. Overnite in Gyeonggi do. Visit Suwon Fortress and King Sojeon Tomb.

Day 04
Visit Petite France, Korea Folk Village and MBC TV station. Return to Seoul. Visit KBS TV station.


Day 05
Visit Bukshanan National Park and Insadong.

Day 06
Departure back to Kuala Lumpur

Day 03
Jeju to Gimpo flight 1500hrs. Overnite in Gyeonggi do. Visit Suwon Fortress and King Sojeon Tomb.
Day 04
Visit Petite France, Korea Folk Village and MBC TV station. Return to Seoul. Visit KBS TV station.

I think you should re-arrange the Day3 and Day4 schedule totally. I don't think you can visit both Suwon Fortress and King Sejong Tomb(I think it's King Sejong Tomb even though you said King Sojeon Tomb) at the same time, considering your flight arrives at 15:00. And Day 4 is also somehow tight because the distance between them are a long way. For example it takes 2~3 hours to go to Petite France(Cheongpyong) from Suwon, and from Petite France to MBC TV station(I think you mean MBC Ilsan Dream center) would take 2~3 hours. All of these belong to Gyeonggi-do, but tyring to visit all the locations is almost impossible, considering that you use mass transportation and the openning time is usually 09:00~18:00.

What about like this:

Day 03
Arrive from Jeju. Visit Suwon Fortress.

Day 04
Visit King Sejong Tomb and Petite France. Return to Seoul.

I take out Korea Folk Village since we will visiting Jeju Folk Village & Museum while in Jeju.

MBC has two tv stations, one in Seoul Yeoui-do and other one in Gyeonggi-do Goyang city Ilsan-gu(called as MBC Dream Center. Drama or entertainment show were shot at here)

If you don't have any special reason to visit King Sejong Tomb, I recommend other Chosun Royal Tombs in Seoul such as Uireung, Seonjeongneung, Jeongneung etc, or Jongmyo Shrine(World Heritage) in Seoul instead.

Day 03
Arriving at Gimpo Airport -> Go to Suwon city by Bus (Bus at Gimpo Airport) -> Go to Suwon Fortress(homepage) -> Staying at Suwon

Day 04
Go to Seoul -> Visiting one or two(if possible) of Royal Tombs in Seoul(homepage) -> Go to Goyang City -> Visiting MBC Dream Center(homepage)r -> Back to Seoul -> Staying at Seoul
