QUOTE(monev88 @ Jul 19 2016, 04:10 PM) Anyone walked/hiked along the Seoul City Wall? I understand there are a couple of sections and around 6 walls enclosing Seoul. Seoul City Wall.. almost never heard of it.Which section of the trail do you guys recommend? Preferably one with good views of the city and an interesting route. But I think you are referencing the ones near daehakno 대학로 ? Went there once, decent, but might not be worth it if you have a tight schedule. |

Hi ... FYI Korean names are gender specific and they have a meaning attached to it.
Some names are unisex. You can easily google for the common names that Koreans name their child. You probably have some idea on what you want to name your baby so it's best to start there. |

My understanding for SK mifi rental.... can someone confirm these?
unlimited data can be connected for more than 3 devices (we are a group of 4) nationwide coverage (jeju too right?) they accept credit card for deposit (don't want to be bringing 200k back to msia lol) Is the return progress fast and swift? We will arrive at incheon at 7am via AREX, flight is at 9.35 https://www.skroaming.com/modem/modem_rental.asp#wrap |

We will arrive at incheon at 7am via AREX, flight is at 9.35 - fast. but the time you arrive at airport is very late as you mentioned your flight is at 9.35am?? less than 4 hours? i guess you will be quite rush as the queue in incheon airport is very slow https://www.skroaming.com/modem/modem_rental.asp#wrap |

QUOTE(Amatiel @ Jul 26 2016, 02:29 PM) Thanks for the reassurance except for the last part where you got me like usually i will take cab cause i have lotsa stuffs to bring back to M'sia.. unless you have less stuffs but if you are going with few friends, you can share among them. overall it's still worth than taking arex and less hassle. where do you stay? some guesthouse do provide taxi serviceNo choice because the first Arex train runs at 6am... Do you have any suggestions? What about taxi? How much will it costs me though? |

I've met Korean with names that doesn't have meaning because their parents don't know any Chinese characters.Some names are unisex. You can easily google for the common names that Koreans name their child. You probably have some idea on what you want to name your baby so it's best to start there. |

QUOTE(yvonnesoo @ Jul 26 2016, 05:10 PM) other options is take the airport limo bus but you need to check the timetable. unsure about the taxi fare. you can ask your guesthouse to help you book. might be cheaper First bus at 0535 takes 60m~70mins so we will arrive at airport same time as Arex.thanks for the reply. will take everything into consideration! |

Even brought a 27inch monitor back in my luggage lol Airport duty free is normally not as cheap as those that are sold in the city anyway, though there's the online duty free website that you order and pick up at the airport but those are mostly used for buying branded bags. I always use AirAsia morning flight and the queue won't be so long since it's early in the morning but have to wake up early lo Never knew about the cosmetics surgery and pictures though haha This post has been edited by koonghx: Jul 27 2016, 12:56 PM |
