Hi limyusiong,  I visited the following place during my trip to Busan:

Gwangalli Beach ---> Night view of the Gwangan Bridge was awesome  rclxms.gif

Taejongdae Cliff --> Nice view of the cliff but the water was rough due to storm =.=

Haeundae Beach --> Malaysia's beach beach better, haha

Nampodong (Pusan PITT Square, Jagalchi market, Yongdusan park) --> lots of shops for shopping and food

Travel from Seoul to Busan cost > RM100, so I think stay one night is kinda not worth it, 2 nights is better. Plus, the attractions in Busan are far away from each other, you will get very tired if you try to visit all places in one day. For example, from Busan stn/Nampodong to Gwangalli needs 45 mins.

thanks for ur recommendation....yst nite continue doing my research....and found out apparently Busan having international firework competition during my visit...at Gwangali beach!!! yeah, i gonna make a hotel booking to hav nice firework view man!!!

i also found out hw to go fr seoul to busan, KTX train, cost bout RM140 per pax per way....speed train...nt bad...gonna try it out...

hrm, in this case, i think i will spend 2 nites at busan and 4 nites at seoul....

Yst is extremely cool in Seoul, drop to 3 Celsius when I was meeting up my korean colleagues at myeongdong! Me n wife din carry glove, so jus bought one fr myeongdong. Personally I prefer myeongdong than dongdaemun, although price is bit higher. But here is full with hotel, food and shopping...

I love Seoul very much! Especially those coffee house (not those franchise one), nice coffee during cold cold weather....with very nice deco....tml time to go bak MY....I am sure will come bak for 3rd time!
