uiscerosI'll get back to everyone soon... I've been busy in Korea.
Let me just say, I LOVE IT HERE. Seriously, the more time I am here the more I love it. Today we went to Changgyeonggung (one of the palaces), and I was so amazed by it. It's so gorgeous there.
Also, have I mentioned that like, almost every single Korean guy I see is some form of gorgeous? It's quite nice.
Today was action packed: we visited Changgyeonggung, Jongmyo Shrine, Olympic Park (to see where the concert will be held), and COEX mall. Yesterday we went to Myeongdong Cathedral, Myeongdong itself, and took a tour.
I have a few pictures!
Outside of Jongmyo Shrine. SO F-ING GORGEOUS!
Look familiar? Myeongdong Cathedral was used as a setting for some scenes in You're Beautiful! I took some pictures, lit a candle, and did some prayer like a proper Catholic girl...
Part of Changgyeonggung. It's beautiful here, all fall weather-ey. It only cost 1000 Won to get in, and it's so pretty, with the buildings, and paths, and beautiful scenery.
At Jongmyo we were lucky to see some sort of ceremony with all these guys dressed in traditional clothing. I managed to video some of it!
At the Olympic Park, I flipped out a bit when I saw this sign! Only a few more days, I CAN'T WAIT! (We're doing an awesome GD MV countdown for the days until the concert!)
The venue itself. It's massive, and the park is gorgeous!
I really have no idea what this is... But it's made by Jesus!
I saw this on the way home tonight. I was slightly creepy, taking a picture of a random restaurant, but whatevs...
My gift to those who love Lee Byung Hun... I managed to take the picture in the middle of the COEX mall...
So today (and yesterday) I bought a lot of stuff. BECAUSE I AM CRAZY.
What I Bought
- Big Bang is V.I.P (Big Bang's Second Single album)
- Big Bang's The Real Concert album
- Big Bang's The Great Concert album
- G-Dragon's solo album Heartbreaker
- Big Bang's The Big Show Concert DVD
- Big Bang seasonal postcards
- Bangs/GD card sticker things
- MBLAQ's Just Blaq album (long story, but we're OBSESSED with them), which came with a free poster!
- SHINee's 2009, Year Of Us (3rd mini album)
- Big Bang's photobook (History from 2008 to 2006) which I've wanted FOREVER...
- YMGA's Made in R.O.K mini album
- Random Big Bang cellphone charm
- Korean Vogue for December (featuring the GD photoshoot)
- Nylon magazine featuring GD
And, um, I think that's it (for now...)
I clearly have a major major disease.And the only prescription is more cowbell!
Also, one of our awesome quotes!
"Bid Bang preside you with sustenance" - Lisa
"NICE BEAM!" - Me (said in response to the above engrish)
(We've gotten into the habit of saying "NICE BEAM" ever since rewatching Arashi being insane on a bus...)

Date: 2009-12-03 11:17 am (UTC)The DVD set was, um, something like 36,000 won. Far cheaper than YesAsia is selling it for!
I use my bankcard to take money out in each country. It's easier, and I don't have to worry about carrying large amounts of various currencies with me.
Eh, I know! I wish there had been! But there are plenty of cute boys here!

Date: 2009-12-03 02:37 pm (UTC)Ahhh that's so exciting! What are you studying? I recently went back to study this year and i'm making lots of plans to study overseas. Have no idea whether i'll be able to fund all this mind you lol
Were flights cheap from Taiwan to Korea? I was actually supposed to go to Korea this month but had to change my plans cause my sister decided to move to Florida in January so i'm doing the US instead.
