So, reading week starts on the 10th of October for my school, which means we get a week off to study for midterms...

However, since not every class has midterms (I only have two) and plane flights from Hong Kong are dirt cheap, me and a couple friends are flying to Seoul for 6 days and 5 nights. One of the days will be spent on the DMZ tour, but every other day is pretty free.

Luckily enough, the offseason ends just as I arrive, so I will be sure to catch a live Starcraft game. Anything else to do in Seoul, or major attractions, or hell, TLers that wanna chill?

Eh, I dunno. I have a couple hundred thousand won to spend immediately, and then I can get more if I need to.

Hahaha that map is epic. I'll be around during that period for whatever events are on. Aside from the 10th when I'm going to Dream Concert. The schedule hasn't been announced yet though. I'll probably be presenting the JD card to him during that time frame depending upon matches if you fancy being around for that.

ㅠ.ㅠ Dream Concert is something a group of us really want to go to, but none of us have the capability of buying tickets for it, and it'd be impossible to get them day of because we land at like 5PM KST.

I am not quite sure where we're staying right now - I have to get in contact with the group of us. I remember him saying that it's within a close walk from Seoul Station on the metro line, though, so that's probably the closest metro stop we'll have access to.

rawr I see I see
Well in that case I'll do some shit since I'm bored as hell and I think this can help anyone who gets to Korea lol

Seoul Station ▷ Apgujeong【 8 Stations: 21 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
This is where you shop for expensive designer clothes. Since you're from Hong Kong, I don't think you should buy designer clothes in Korea when you can get the same thing for a much better price in HK.
But Apgujeong also has it's fair share of goodies. Pretty girls, nice cars (if you're an enthusiast) and nice bars. I don't recommend going clubbing here because it sucks BALLZ now because stupid ass Korean Americans ruined this place.

One bad thing about Apgujeong is that the subway system here is total shit. As you can see from the map I posted above, the #3 line is probably the absolute worst subway line. Sure it's clean. But too bad it's slow as FUCK.

Also the traffic here is terrible. Goddamn.

BUT THE GIRLS... OH THE GIRLS....... MMMMMMMMMMM

Seoul Station ▷ Shinsa【 9 Stations: 23 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
This place has ALOT of nice bars. But unless you're bringing your girlfriend here, I do not suggest coming here if you're lonely. Because 90% are all couples. HOLDING HANDS.

Thank god I have a girlfriend, or my balls would shriveled up already from depression and loneliness.

Seoul Station ▷ Gang-Nam【 11 Stations: 29 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
Ahhh Gangnam... This is where majority of TL stuff happens. Yes there are a shitload of people here and traffic is even worse than Apgu, but still fun fun place.
Alot cheaper than Apgu too.

Although the taxi drivers here are notorious for being the biggest douches. Yes, even to koreans.

BUT! This place is pretty sweet. Decent price, alot of bars, lotsa good food, nice HOUSE Clubs, etc etc + UNLIMITED STEAK

Seoul Station ▷ Hong-Dae【 6 Stations: 20 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
I absolutely hate this place with a passion. Sure it's cheap and etc, but this place attracts the lowest scums of all people.

Hong-Dae is not famous for being the #1 (still argued) Art College in Korea, but because of the # of Hip-Hop clubs and cheap food. Some say Hong-Dae girls are the prettiest in Korea, but they only say that because half of them are tripping ballz and let the guys do anything to them.

Still, it IS cheap so....
Oh right if you're an otaku theres this place in HongDae where they sell Mangas for 20-30% discount. Figurines are not discounted though.

Seoul Station ▷ Hwe-Hwa【 6 Stations: 11 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
In Korea, this is where the "Other" cool college kids hang out. Like HongDae, this place sucks balls for my taste. LOTS of good food here though. Only food however...

Seoul Station ▷ Dong-Dae-Moon【 5 Stations: 9 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
Who loves cheap clothes?
I do.

Seoul Station ▷ Myeong-Dong【 2 Stations: 3 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
Myeong-Dong is where all the Japanese people live in Korea.
If you go here, the ONLY language you will be able to hear is Japanese.
SUGOI SUGOI IKKU IKKU YAMETE YAMETE SUGOI

Nice shopping area though. Lotsa stuff to do here too

Seoul Station ▷ Euljiro 1【 2 Stations: 12 Minutes 】
NOTE: Euljiro 1 and Myeong-Dong are both the same place. Bad Subway FTL

Seoul Station ▷ Chung-Dam【 13 Stations: 33 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
This place used to be a baller place to hang out. But then everyone realized it was overrated so they all ran out.


I poast moar later

Seoul Station ▷ Samsung AKA Coex【 14 Stations: 35 Minutes 】
OMG WHAT I DO HERE MRHOON?!?!?!
+ Show Spoiler +
This place is fucking far from Seoul Station, but it is Coex!

Coex is HUGE. Like seriously, HUGE. If you're going to go to Coex, you better have enough strength to walk around the whole place. There are tons of overpriced places to eat here, a huge ass movie theater and alotta places to shop. Yeah it's basically a huge ass mall that doesn't suck balls.

BUT DONT EVER. EVER. Come to COEX on the weekends. IT SUCKS ASS. Seriously. It's so bad. There are so many people it makes Myeong Dong actually seem peaceful.

Also, try not to get lost lol...

Because I still do

Hongdae does suck ass generally because of the amount of douchehats it brings, but if you like independant music (or non-pop) in general you probably want to go here, also during daytime it has excellent restaurants/cafes

Jongak and Jongro 1-2가 are generally pretty fun places at night but it can also get really skanky... and there are like a million 삐끼s

BAsically... if oyu havent got a lot of money but want lots of fun, go to Sinchon, if you have got lots of money and want lots of fun, go to Gangnam, if you have LOTS of money and want lots of fun, go to apgujeong.

Myungdong is good but not really a drinking/night time place... (although it's near Jongro which is)
: o )
