Last Day in Seoul 160808-Part 1

I want to cry :'( 
Just look at the title and you'll already know why I emo now. 

So, FINALLY we managed to get our local sim cards done at the global Olleh store at Hongdae. It's expensive af no kidding. The sim card + 1GB data + 30 days validation costs 33,100 won. That's about um...RM120 and from what I've just found out, the currency exchange value is now RM3.74 for 1,000 won (I'm writing this about a month after coming back from Korea, procrastination at its best indeed).

Free fans! (Buchae: Korean 101)


We had KFC for lunch. I had some sort of Zinger burger set 5,500won (RM19 cries). Oh and one thing about fast food chains here: THERE IS NO CHILLI SAUCE. I can already imagine some Malaysians clinging onto their chilli bottles and weeping at this news. I can live without chilli sauce but my other Malaysian friends who came here can't. Their coke is kinda diluted too. The fries is just so-so. But food is food.

And there is one culture here in Korea. You have to clean up after yourselves, especially in fast food restaurants. They have an area where you can dispose your trash. They even sort out cups and straws and a small hole to dump your unfinished soda or whatever. But in some restaurants you won't need to do that. I can't specify which so you will just have to be observant. When in Rome, one Romes. Okay I know that isn't the actual saying but you totally get what I mean.


Moving on, we moved on. We dragged all of our possessions and decided to go on a pilgrimage. To Dankook University.

We boarded the 8100 bus from Seoul Station and thus, begins our journey into infinity and beyond.

Something is wrong with me today, just ignore me.

Anyways, here are some pics.

Silyemun (Randomly saw some ancient gate thing)

The right signage says Dankook University

Will continue for part 2 next time. 
Maybe 2 years later.
