Hello everyone, this is my first review, so please bear with me. In early 2017, I had the opportunity to travel to South Korea for 11 days! You might be wondering where I went and if I got bored. Well, let's find out together! Here's a glimpse of my 11-day itinerary:

  • Hongdae

The first and most popular spot among Korean teenagers is Hongdae. This area is located near Hongik University, so there are many young and attractive people around.

The original text is empty. Please provide the text you want me to translate.

This area offers a wide variety of goods, from clothing and food to trinkets and even pubs and bars. It's a place where people can easily stay out all night.

  • Dongdaemun Design Plaza (DDP)

DDP is a venue for various art events, including exhibitions and events. It also hosts Seoul Fashion Week. The venue is beautiful and highly recommended for art enthusiasts.

The LED Rose Garden is a beautiful and romantic display.

Let's take a look at the photos of Oppa.

  • Chonggyecheon Stream

The Cheonggyecheon Stream is an ancient waterway dating back over 600 years. It serves as a popular leisure destination for Koreans. During the summer months, the area is likely more crowded, as our visit occurred during the cold winter season.

  • Ewha Womans University

This is the largest all-female university in Korea, and in the world. It is truly beautiful and a must-see landmark if you are visiting Korea. There are many Thai people here because they come to take pictures. Haha.

Located in front of the university, "Edae" is a shopping district similar to Hongdae. Personally, I prefer Edae because it offers a wider variety of products that appeal to my taste. While the items are comparable, I find Edae more appealing for reasons I cannot quite articulate.

  • Buckchon Hanok Village, also known as Bukchon Hanok Village.

This is a traditional Korean village where people actually live. The village is very beautiful, and you can rent a hanbok to take pictures to match the atmosphere. It's a lot of fun.

Wearing a hanbok for photos would have been lovely, but it was far too cold. When I visited, the temperature was 0 degrees Celsius, and I simply couldn't brave the elements in such attire.

  • Shared Understanding

A popular shopping destination near Konkuk University, featuring over 200 blue shipping containers that provide a unique and stylish backdrop for your photos.

  • SM Town at Coex Atrium

As a K-pop enthusiast, I must confess my immense admiration for Girls' Generation. This place has truly exceeded my expectations, leaving me in a state of euphoria. In fact, I am an ardent supporter of most SM Entertainment artists, and my eyes lit up with excitement upon arrival.

Lost my mind! Where did my friends go? Right now, I just want to be a fan. Sob, my fan life is complete.

I would love to have an album with Taeyeon's autograph!

The Korean mothers were sitting in large numbers, making me think there were free items being distributed. There was no place for me to sit.

How amazing was the show? Just ask your heart, haha! I was super happy at that time.

Let's Go to BUSAN

Next, let's leave Seoul and head to Busan, the second-largest city after Seoul and a major port city in Korea.

There are many ways to get to Busan, such as by plane, high-speed train (KTX), or bus. We chose to take the bus because it was the cheapest option, haha! We were about to run out of money. The bus ride takes about 5 hours, while the plane or KTX takes about 1-2 hours. Personally, I love Busan so much! I wish I could stay for many more days. Let's see what beautiful landmarks there are!

  • Gamcheon Culture Village

Our village is a must-visit if you come to Busan. It is a charming village located on a hill with colorful houses arranged in a staggered pattern. Come and see how lovely it is!

Adorable from every angle. Spent the whole day there, totally worth it. Had a blast taking photos.

  • Haedong Yonggungsa Temple

This ancient temple is situated on a coastal hill in Busan. Based on my observations, most Korean visitors come here with their families.

  • Haeundae Beach

Haeundae Beach is the most famous beach in Korea, and it is full of seagulls. There are so many seagulls that they fly over your head, which can be a little scary.

Birds are flying everywhere.

The elderly gentleman stood feeding the birds, a picture of quiet grace.

  • Gwangandaegyo Bridge

The Gwangan Bridge, a landmark of Busan, stands on Gwanganri Beach. Visiting at night offers a different atmosphere, although photos may not capture its full beauty.

  • Taejongdae National Park, or Taejongdae Park

This is another landmark of Busan, a large park. Taejongdae boasts a vast expanse with breathtaking ocean views stretching as far as the eye can see. Therefore, it is recommended to allocate several hours to fully immerse oneself in the atmosphere.

We spent four days in Busan. Due to the winter season, we were only able to visit a few places. We were a little disappointed.

The user would like the following translated from Thai to English:

"Let's end with a picture of the snowfall. We wished for snow, and it actually snowed. Every time we go to Korea, we encounter snow. This was taken from our accommodation."

That concludes our 11-day trip to Korea. We actually visited Myeongdong, but we didn't take any pictures. If you're planning a trip to Korea and don't know where to go, you can follow our itinerary. Haha! We also recommend visiting Busan, which is definitely worth it. The atmosphere is great, the nature is beautiful, and everything is just perfect. This concludes our review for now. We'll be back with reviews of other travel destinations soon. Thank you for watching until the end. Bye-bye!
