ya ^__^ i think a down jacket would be sufficient smile.gif bcos my bf just walked around in seoul with a tshirt and a windbreaker lol. i guess sports shoes also ok lah because after all we are on a budget lol. don't want to spend too much unnecessary cash (how often would you wear dr martens boots lol) also, you wont spend alot ALOT of time walking on ice surfaces la! the government does a pretty good job of cleaning and shovelling the snow hehe.. but be prepared to land on your butt at least once la if you decide to go for the cheaper sports shoe option tongue.gif

It shouldnt be full..do check if there are any holidays or festivals on the time of your visit....

Although do pick up basic korean before you go there.. So that it would be easier to converse with the motel owner.. Sometimes u wanna see the condition of the room before paying n stuff..

Cosmetics are super cheap X) like the price over here is doubled the price in Korea. Shoes..it depends i guess.. sometimes when they have sale / promotion shoes can get quite cheap. Just maybe 2 months ago i bought a pair of converse for like..rm60. Also depends on your luck i guess X) that is if you're talking about sports shoes la..

if talking about girls shoes.. there are plenty everywhere.. prices usually start from 8000won / 10,000won - 30,000won+.. for flats and heels..

Get a Social ID from someone who is living in Korea. Too bad I am not living in Korea now, so I couldn't help.. May be huiyin could. Ask help from her/him?

good luck travelling to everland. please please do research before hand as it would be abit difficult to take the bus if you have no basic korean (just incase you get lost and need to ask the bus driver) + all the signs on the bus are in korean.

although i would recommend lotte world in winter (very large indoor park) but i heard everland is good during winter too (sledding and stuff) but if u decide to go during winter, make sure you bring warm clothes coz its all out door! + dunno if any rides would be closed or not due to snow (just in case)

instead of asking the questions again and again >_> please read a few pages back so that the same answers don't have to be repeated. sorry! don't mean to be bossy but ... its tiring answering the same questions over and over again.

are you going hiking or any sort when you are there?

if not really quite unnecessary because when i was there, my ex bf only wore sports shoes to walk around seoul during winter (when it was snowing) but becareful la coz it might be slippery.

even skiing also sports shoes oni coz they will provide you with their special ski boots.

yongpyeong is one of the most famous ski resorts as well as it being pretty costly ._. if im not mistaken it has tons of courses ranging from beginners to intermediates..

i didn't go for yongpyeong because i would only use the beginners course ._. so... not necessary for 1212435 courses lol

In winter i was in lotte world.. And that time it was already below zero.. The day before it was snowing summore.. Tried to play the outdoor games... And i swear my face got like.. Frozen in the air.. The wind is crazy+swinging on the ride.... Crazy...
And that is only a small outdoor portion of the themepark... Imagine at everland where 70% is outdoor >_<

However there are some of my friends who went to everland during winter... They hv like slides and all i guess during winter.. Its a long bus ride to everland.. So goodluck riding the bus with all ur winter jackets T____T coz i remember taking the public bus home with no seats available... Having to stand all the way back for an hour to the city is not fun sigh..

I visited everland in spring and it was still cold... But rides were still bearable lol.


When i was still in korea my ex bf visited and we lived in love motels.. They may appear to look kinda dodgy but it is a cheap place to live la.. Read the info on the previous pages... Ive wrote about love motrls before...
