@zstan : yea i was studying there from last yr sept, just came home this june/july. tak ingat LOL.

i guess 800 should be enough lah providing you dont need to pay for food etc smile.gif how many days are u going again? coz when i was there i was only given rm700 per month... lol. and im a girl wink.gif which means i go shopping for clothes quite alot .. hehehe

if you are some hardcore korean band/group fan then there are TONS of souviners / merchandise for you to blow your money on, like what one of our other forummer said. oh watch out for those CD's /DVDs.... alot of them are the korean version which u can only get from korea.. last time my friend told me to buy some super junior CD..

regarding the plug point... its different from our two pin i think . but you can just bring the universal adapter..
*
oh. what did you study there? hmmm..for proper meals i dun think i will be paying..just those..err...snacks and stuff...ok i guess i just change rm800 then.. biggrin.gif if

you means those drama series? hmmmm... hmm.gif maybe can 1 or 2.. biggrin.gif

Sure-kah? I thought they earn basic salary too in addition to the ridiculous tipping at the end of journey..I always pissed off wth such arrangement esp you pay in advance for the guided tour and yet at the end still pay for the ridiculous tips.. That's why I never trust those agents. sad.gif

how much did they quote you last time?

my air asia go package rm35 for tipping only. acceptable to me la.
