Stickers I got from Korea.

I regret not getting other ones. I could’ve decorated my school ID card so hard.

They’re all fuzzy :3 And I have another set of hearts that have words in the middle.

Someone give me an idea on where to use these!

Korea: “Kangho at The Red Carpet” hair salon fan account

I haven’t read Jessica unnee’s yet. So please bear with me if some of the things I say are the same as hers. 

So Jessica unnee and I went to the hair salon that a lot of KPop idols go to. Lucky for us (for once in our fucking life) since they’re doing the Idol Athletics Championships thing today, a LOT of idols went there.

We were thankfully RIGHT on time to see Infinite walk into the building. :)

I will be writing about the follow idols in this fan account:

Eight, Dalmatian, Jaejoong (JYJ), Rainbow, Boyfriend, A-Pink, and Infinite

The letter I wrote for L. 

The letter Jessica unnee wrote for Infinite on a napkin.

Mine basically was saying how much I love Infinite and I was so grateful I got to see them before going back to Canada. And also that I got him a neck pillow and though it’s nothing special, he can use it while they’re in car rides or on the plane to Japan if he wants to.

Jessica unnee and I had a fun time writing her note. We basically said she was from Seattle and spent all her money on a plane ticket to Korea to see Infinite and therefore she didn’t have money for stationery (but obviously had money for an envelope that looked exactly like mine) and so she wrote it on a napkin. Omg it was seriously a LOLfest while we were writing that.

Korea: Our luck and 2.5 hours.

Before I make a fan account, I’d like to say. 2.5 hours seems to be some special amount of time for Jessica unnee and I.

We spent 2.5 hours trying to look for Woollim. But failed. Pictures here of what we THINK was it.
We seriously walked around for that long. Trying to find it. We even went to a PC room to get directions. And once we did we went to the right place, only there was NOTHING that indicated if that room or whatever was Woollim or not. Nothing. The sign said something about closing the door softly. But other than that… Seriously nothing. =| 

2.5 hours spent trying to find a jjimjilbang last night.

The game plan was to spend the night there, wake up early and go to the hair salon.

Turns out the one I found on the internet is gone. We seriously spent 2.5 hours looking for a jjimjilbang. There is NONE in apgujeong or shinsa. So we went all the way to gangnam. And seriously. Almost in tears trying to find one. We ended up going to a PC room AGAIN to look for one. Finally found one and got help from a taxi driver. We walked there and just. Seriously died. LOL. We slept for 1.5 hours before getting up to take a taxi back to Shinsa station to go to the hair salon.

The last 2.5 hours is when we spent 2.5 hours at the hair salon seeing like 10 different celebrities. Probably even more. Fan account is coming up REAL soon. As in I’m going to write it right after I post this.

We seriously couldn’t find the Woollim building or room or whatever it was. I am seriously 90% sure this one room in this 3 floor villa was it.

Past Korean Adventures (II)

Korea: Adventures with Jessica unnee

To basically sum up my day today (almost wrote cum), we spent 2.5 hours trying to find the Woolim Entertainment building.

Let me put up a picture one day (because I’m too tired right now) of what we THINK was the building. Because TBQH it is the most difficult thing to find.

I kid you not when I say we spent literally 2 and a half hours looking for it. Seriously. We are dedicated.

Jessica unnee even had a nice letter to give to them. Such a shame.

Korea: Namdaemun/Dongdaemun/Myeongdong

So probably one of my regrets this trip is not exploring the major shopping places.

Namdaemun is this big “market” that sells cheap things. Usually knockoffs or fakies. They have food there too. Only thing I don’t like about it is because there’s food it’s disgusting when it’s hot. Lol. IDK I just hate the feeling of hotness and food and icky mustiness y’know. Anyway. It’s an outdoor market, and you could probably find little Korean souvenirs and such. There is also a line of camera stores at the end off the street. 

Dongdaemun is also a “market” but there’s lots of stuff inside as well as outside. They have a lot of stuff. And I mean a lot. The indoor “mall” places have several floors of clothes. All different. It takes a very long time to go through each aisle and such on each floor. The outdoor things of Dongdaemun take only cash though! You have to be careful that you don’t drop the clothes here since it is outside!

Myeongdong. I love Myeongdong. I wish I could’ve looked around more. Anyway. Myeongdong has more “chain” stores. Like brand names (not like Gucci or whatever). I mean like Giordano, Pancoat, Spao, etc. They have almost 2 of every makeup store (Etude, The Face Shop, etc) There are also lots of cafés and LOTS of tourists. Especially in Etude. Almost anywhere you’ll see someone speaking Chinese, or Japanese to you since so many tourists go here. 

Always remember, if they have a calculator, you can haggle. If you haggle though, they usually expect you to pay with cash.

Anyway. A little tip for you SM lovers. Spao is owned or has a large share owned or whatever by SM. If you go in, there are a few floors in the Spao building. There are huge posters of Super Junior, SNSD, etc that you can actually take pictures with. It actually says “Photo zone”
On the very top floor is a restaurant and the floor right under that is this area where they sell products of SM artists. EG. albums, pillow covers, mugs, barbie dolls (not kidding), signed photos, framed pictures, ETC. 

It is seriously SM heaven.
