Day 7: Shopping Day II
13 June 2018, Wednesday

Our last full day in Seoul, & it was finally time to fill that half-filled luggage of mine that I brought for the trip (brought just shorts & a handful of t-shirts πŸ˜†).

Le dad decided we should go Dongdaemun and check out whats there (instead of the more known Namdaemun).. 


Walked out of the metro's entrance and it just felt like we were completely... at the wrong place (to do shopping). The street was filled with people pushing their carts around loading fabrics and textile goods. πŸ˜… Within minutes, we found ourselves walking back to the station and leaving for Ewha's University instead. 





Lunch @ Ewha's University food street...
Mummy finally got what she had been wanting to try... Jjajangmeyon.





While the parents parked themselves at the cafe, sis & I started our hour-long shopping. There's like 3 main streets, one for food, one for apparels and one for skincare/makeup. I picked up a couple of items and we actually found the same pants we saw at Hongdae the previous day... which was great because we had originally intended to go back to Hongdae for it (but since we found it at Ewha's University, we didn't have to make the trip back there 😎).




Its definitely a place I would head back to if I ever find myself in Korea again. One-stop shopping~


The damage done... over the days
Dinner @ BHC Chicken Myeongdong
Map (Nearest metro: Euljiro 1-ga exit 5)

Prior to my trip, my colleagues had raved to me about this chicken place that I must go to if I were in Myeongdong... BHC Chicken endorsed by actress Jun Ji-Hyun (acted in "my love from another star").
Pro Tip #1: don't order too much... 






With an order of a plate of boneless sprinkle chicken & sweet garlic soy sauce chicken, fish cake soup, fries & 2 cokes, it was simply too much for four. LOL. I have no idea what made us feel like we could actually finish that.

The boneless sprinkle chicken was one of the more uniquely seasoned flavour... It was definitely not something I have seen in SG, though it would be great if we didn't over-order as it gets a little overpowering (imo) after each piece.

He's everywhere 😍
