As a person who wants to study zoology, eating a live organism is a little too much for me to accept.
It's a delicacy here to eat live octopus. Mummy was curious in wanting to try it, there was no stopping her, really. Which was a good thing, I got to see her surrender after three tries. Pretty sure mummy wanted me to try so that she doesnt feel left out eating it alone. I, knew I can never eat it. We had to ask them to cook it for is after the surrender. Hehe! Oh mummy.
The people here are really nice. They make an effort in trying to understand you and trying to make you understand what they are trying to say too. :) Despite the language barrier, communication still could go on. Mummy and her body language, and me with my minimal Korean, things are alright. If only I could speak better Korean. :X Still, the thought of them trying their hardest to help you is really nice. :) Yes, we have bumped into a few of those who could not care less about you, but these people were not as bad as those I have seen elsewhere ( Macau is actually scary as hell in this aspect. :| ).
The people here are adorable as hell too! :D Even just now, mummy wanted to buy this s3 headphone cover, and the 'vendor' was sort of playing with me. The typical tap-on-your-shoulder-and-disappear kind. LOL! Something that was totally unexpected. The taxi drivers here, thus far are old men. One of them made that jcute laugh, i-found-it!-hehe!! laugh. Hahahahaha! Seriously the people here are adorable!!!!!!! :D
Mummy wants to be adorable too. (facepalm)
K-pop music everywhere!! A few most common songs I have heard all over Seoul : 'Day by Day' by T-ara, 'I Love You' by 2ne1, that latest song by Sistar, 'Electric Shock' by f(x) and 'Sexy, Free & Single' by Super Junior. :D
Korean wave artists' merchandise, fake ones, have got one whole shop on its own. You can easily find poker cards, files, poster, diaries, fans, small notebooks and if you are lucky, some other unusual stuff like pens and tumblers. Hahahahaha! You still need to be lucky to find those things of your fav artists. Have been searching for super junior and girls generation, but as famous as they are, they are actually really rare. At least to have the nicer ones. They normally have one design only of about less than ten prints of it. :X MOST I see around is Jang Guen Seuk. Hoho.
Myeongdong, Dongdaemun, SinChon, IDae, Namdaemun, Namsan tower... DONE!
Shopped shit loads of stuff, really. D:
