Korea's meal price still ok..'KL price'
Aus food baru killing us..haha.. HK as well,sikit sikit already mahal,their living standard too high..

Myeongdong got lots of outlets,damn many ppl also..much prettier (got a lot of signboard.lol) in my opinion..whereas for Namdaemun,more like a huge pasar malam,price quite ok..lots of ppl also..can get some souvenir,slightly negotiable..

Dongdaemun go for the Migliore? instead of Doota..Doota all high end stuff one.. Migliore got 7-8 story all selling cheap affordable cloths..pengsan see so many cloths.lol
another street along Miss Lee Cafe? that one pricy,window shopping ok lah..

probably Migliore @ Dongdaemun area..the building juz beside Doota..thats wad i think lah..hv to see wad season too leh..if winter everyone selling winter cloths.lol..

see which place other forumer recommend,mayb i miss out somewher better to shop for cloths.

of coz their subway got toilet..some very high-tech lagi..
if not,tourist attraction also got public toilet,shopping malls as well..no worries..

i got mine around RM700+- also last Nov.. i fail to resist the cheap ticket 'aura' from AA.
last time i sit their A330 for several hours then straight take their A320..jesus,the seat are so damn sempit..rather stand then sit.

Dongdaemun shopping area got way too many MADE IN KOREA winter clothing to choose..i chosen 1 very yeng style jacket,but bloody expensive..rm500+-..but quality damn nice..haha

but there's skill when buying their clothing,dun let them noe that ur interested to buy their cloth,but wait them become despo come ask u to buy..then u can juz nego till the price u sell..if cant get the price u want,then take another cloth n ask for cheaper price.

1 week might not be enuf if u add in Busan..travel to Busan eat quite a lot of time..9days perhaps?

T-Money is more than enuf i guess..at least for me lah last year end..
but i haven to pick up a Korean Pass on the road..so keep both T-money n K Pass as souvenir..lol

i did mine nearly <RM2k.. exclude air tix..
my RM2k includes eat quite ok food..so if u jimat a bit on food,buy lesser mask,find a good backpacker, RM1.5k sure can do it.. the standard more or less is like KL,thats wad i think lah..

a little advice regarding Noryangjin Fish Market..i feel like kena con when i visit ther,pick seafood n lunch..
we got 10 ppl,n they charge by how many plate. like 1KG prawn help us cook RM30,they split it into 500gram 500gram juz becoz we are large group..there goes RM30x2..
however the fishmarket is no doubt worth a visit lah if never visit any huge fishmarket b4..

yes..i've changed some RM in Korea before.. if im correct should be Woori Bank.. not KEB or Hana Bank.

i cant recall how much is the rate d..but bank rate normally so so only lah.lol..

for those who plan to visit Korea one day,dun worry abt communication problem..if u do ur homework properly lah. got pictures on the Menu,price of items are properly written out.. simple english like three-thousand? four-thousand? is more than enuf..to nego price of coz..lol..

I'm invading Japan end of this year!

there are few options to choose from once u out of the arrival hall..u wont miss it. can take ur time read those brochures as they are available in English as well,then compare compare. u can return the phone to any of the outlets in town,not necessary must return to the airport counter u rent it.
oh ya,check for online coupons,i remember got 10% discount thingy if u rent for a certain period.

yea.. better bring more..who noes they require 1 coupon for 1 day..

No..u DO NOT need to buy in advance. becoz Everland is not as pack as HK's Disneyland or SG's Universal Studios..can simply juz go ther n buy..less crowd too..juz avoid weekend lah.lol.. unless u planning to go in by group..then u need to print the ticket from official website in advance 1st..

add on: by the way,if u going during its 'Christmas Period'..must stay till the firework show.. superb i can tell u..beat HK Disneyland in my opinion..

aint Disneyland's ride mostly 'kids' ride? Tarzan,Toys Story,Flying Elephant,Alice in the Wonderland? thats wad i got from HK Disneyland.. Tokyo one totally different? whereas Everland got animal ( im animal freak )

aww..the nami island lack of the 'feel'..autumn is the best!
the only way to Mount Seorak is by bus rite? n usually ppl spend 1 nite ther,then 2nd morning head to the famous fishmarket? in sokcho.. but i google around Noryangjin Fish Market is the biggest in Seoul.lol..
Busan got nice beach if im correct.

but but...bikini or cool weather?
