QUOTE(zstan @ Jul 1 2016, 10:37 PM) ooo thanks! just random cheap souvenirs hahaha. ____ anyway need some spoonfeeding. really don't have time to plan a proper itinerary. So here's a rough one. Will just follow the flow: Day 1: arrive at incheon about 8.30am. then check in at sinchon hostel. will vist ewha uni in the morning. afternoon bukchon hanok village. can spend whole afternoon here? or can squeeze in one more place? at night will be at hongdae area. day 2: morning at noryangjin fish market. suggestions for one more place to visit in the morning? will probably head to ilsan city after lunch for my conference. day 3: full day at nami island. at night.. myeongdong or gangnam?  if you go nearby insadong if you don't want to stroll at bukchon that long. or you can relax and try out their cafe for desserts,coffee or etc.. i always do that. for day 3. either myeongdong or gangnam is ok. both also nice. myeongdong lots of gals stuffs la.. hehe

Actually, most clubs in gangnams are always free entrance.. Most don't know this and pay the fees at the front desk.  Edit: Getting a few "Emergency Alerts" these days.  Quite interesting since 3 days ago it was an alert for heavy rain. Today received alert for hot weather. This post has been edited by koonghx: Jul 8 2016, 04:45 PM

I think 1 night is good enough for yongpyong. have u skied before? if ure no pro skiing is very tiring. there's nothing much to do in Yong pyong. and it is super cold too. but fun try nonetheless.

QUOTE(TSOM @ Jun 18 2016, 08:01 AM) if going alone in backpacking style, can survive without speaking a word of Korean??  I did that. totally ok. just don't expect special treatment and friendly smiles like in Malaysia. ull probably come back thinking Koreans r super unfriendly because they r ignoring u or yelling at u or avoiding u most of the time and ajumma elbowing u often. but don't take that to heart. they r just afraid of u coz they can't speak English. if u could understand even a wee bit of Korean they r super nice ppl. happy travels!
