wrongly type.. bro.. bout the itinerary.........uhh nvmm..
C'mon, pls suggest me itinerary. Really dunno what to do n where to go if go South Korea..

1 Night at Jeju Island i think wont be enough leh.. coz you need to take the plane there and the plane back... usually people spend at least 2 nights in Jeju.. ( ihavent been to jeju either) how many days will you be in SKorea? By AA?

1 night in seoul also i dont think enough >_< because there are TONS of things to see in Seoul...

i havent been to mount sorak so i dunno..

You will also have to pick between Lotte World / Everland. You can't possibly go to both because Everland is an hour bus ride away from Seoul.. so to and fro two hours gone already, as i have recommended the other forummers, lotte world is a better choice to visit in Winter because Everland is a HUUUGE outdoor theme park.. and when its like 5degrees and below in Seoul, you won't wanna be out there, trust me. but everland do have heaters and stuff lah so i guess should be okay..

Added on November 18, 2010, 4:06 pmalso depends on what you want to see lah in south korea..

if you are interested in shopping or culture then your itinerary will be different..

do your homework ,read the previous pages or do research on the internet.. dont come into the forum asking people to plan your itinerary for you.

plenty of things for you to read on the first page. gather more info and come back
dont mean to sound harsh but everyone here has done intensive research and you should do yours too.

haizzz.. ok..

does anyone know where is the nearest place to purchase T-money once we reach Incheon. I read from the T-Money site, it stated that there's no counter selling T-Money @ Incheon. And since I'll be arriving in the night, are these shops/booths selling T-Money still open?

I'll be there for 4 days, will be travelling only in town area, furthest i presume will be Hongdae and Namsan area, how much in your opinion should i top up my T-money?

Going tomorrow noon ^^

Not matter wherter rich or not... I sometimes pitty them waiters..
Often times get bullied from day to night, so the change I just offer them as tips or whatever lo.. I think you'll feel the same way if you stay there a lil' longer.


You can get T-money pretty conveniently in those 24-hour convenience stores.
How come there are none at Incheon?

Can't be what...

speaking of t-money, how do you use the paid wifi? oh mai i forgotten the name. starting with Nes...

you don't really need a t-money card unless you want to hop around subway and buses a lot.

i tink jeju island need 2nite althu travel from seoul to jeju is 1hr but there a few places to visit and explore...
abt mount sorak, only beautiful scenery.. u may not need to stay over nite but visitng for a few hrs...
seoul is big city... many things to explore.. it depend on wat's ur trip purpose.. shopping? free n easy? or to see-sight?

OOo? I got the info that can't buy T-money at Incheon here

zstan: thanks.. your blogpost has helped me a lot in planning my trip.. and most prob will get the T-money, for keepsake and convenience. and I might need to store my luggage at the subway locker on the last day since flight at nite, and will check out in the morning.

Super excited~~

dear/bro, read carefully. only the subways doesn't sell. the convenience stalls in incheon still got sell la.

...and i haven't finish update la..still got many things to upload...glad it helps..

can the T-Money be use on Seoul City Tour bus?
i'm quite confuse T-money with the Seoul City Pass!
which one is more practical to have for visitor like us?

T-money can be used almost everywhere IINM..

Either one also can.
Just stick with T-money I recommend.

T-money can be used almost anywhere, but I reckon you'll only be using it for public transports.
Other things, just use cash la.

when i was in seoul i bought this pass called the SEOUL CITY PASS+
and its cheaper than the tmoney, if im not mistaken tmoney is like some kinda small keychain which you can hang on your phone rite? i think tmoney cost 7000won? dont remember.. but definitely the city pass was cheaper..works the same too ^^

So after all the visiting its time for makannnnnn... Ginseng Rice with glutinous rice!!! =D

Technically the restaurant was just below where i had my breakfast. =.=



Cold noodles. Very stupid of me to throw the whole bowl in the soup which literally decreased the soup's temperature by a lot! =.=



Ginseng + alcohol


...and out it comes.


The rice is inside the chicken itself. The meat is also very tender. Including the bones as well. A bit troublesome as you need to spit out the bones every mouthful.

After lunch it is off to the amethyst shop. Nothing much to see except buying things again.



Amethyst deco, if you don't know how they look like.


and more leaves.
