Spicy Octopus @Jegi-Dong

We went to this place twice. Now, all of us really miss the food and craving for it. At first, we can't handle the spicy flavour. But for the 2nd time, we really enjoy it.

Spicy and juicy octopus. We love it!!!!


In front of the restaurant
We give 5 star to this place. The name of the restaurant is Mokpojib Na Jeong-sun Halmae Jjukkumi. If you can read hangul, you can see the name of the restaurant on the sign board like picture below. 
How to go to this restaurant:
Take subway line 1 to Jegi Station and go out exit 6. Walk straight for about 200 m and you'll see the 119 fire station. Cross the road. Walk straight till you see the golden octopus statue. You need to turn left into Jjukumi bogeum alley. Try to search for this restaurant. Actually you don't need to cross the road if you go out at another exit but I can't remember which exit. If I'm not mistaken exit 1 or 10. 
The price for Jjukumi is KRW 10,000 per person and you can add on dwenjang jigae and rice.

Autumn in Nami Island & Garden of Morning Calm

 Best moment and beautiful view in Nami Island. 







My journey continue to Garden of Morning Calm. How to go to Garden of Morning Calm from Nami Island. Easy way by circle tour bus. Pay KRW 5,000 and ready to go to Nami Island, Petite France and Garden of Morning Calm. I took the tour bus to Garden of Morning Calm from Nami Island. No need to purchase another ticket just show the ticket I bought earlier from Gapyeong Station. You can read how I bought the circle tour bus to Nami Island from my previous entry about Nami Island and Petite France. This time, I went to Garden of Morning Calm instead of Petite France. For your information, this Garden is the last stop of the tour bus. Travel time around 1 hour from Nami Island but not to worry because you can enjoy the scenic view of Gapyeong area. The ticket to enter this Garden is KRW 8,000 per person. I don't want to write too many things. Please enjoy the picture below:

Korea Folk Village


Kak Hafsa, Yus, Joyce and I went to Korean Folk Village as I really want to go there for a long time. From our hostel, we took subway to Suwon. It took around 1 hour and half from Hongdae to Suwon. There are many ways to go to Korean Folk Village from Suwon station. You can take local bus or free shuttle to go there. So, our option was to take local bus rather than free shuttle bus because we didn't want to wasted our time to wait for the shuttle bus. The fare from Suwon station to Korean Folk Village is KRW 1,100 and you can pay it with T-Money. We paid KRW 15,000 per person for the entrance fees without amusement park admission.We watched 4 performances there inclusive of Korean Traditional Dance, Tight Rope Dance, Traditional Wedding Ceremony and also Horse performane. The performace will be perform twice a day on 11.00 to 12.00 in the afternoon and 3.00 to 4.00 pm in the evening.

Below random pictures taken from my visit to Korean Folk Village.

Catch Me If You Can: Review

The musical took place in Blue Square. I arrived around 15 to 20 minutes before the musical started.  First thing I did was to claimed my tickets from the ticket booth. After that, I went straight to the theatre after took some pictures outside the building. Luckily, I met Kyuhyun father and rode the same elevator with him. I also took the opportunity to took picture with him.

With Kyuhyun father
Lets talk about the musical. The duration for this musical is 140 minutes including the intermission. The story is all about the Frank Abaignaille Jr. The story about himself, who has disguised himself as a teacher in his transferred school for a week, runs away from home after his parents divorce and begins using his talent to deceive people. By impersonating as a reporter, he found a loophole in Airline. Disguised as a pilot, he free rides on all the air routes and forge company checks to withdraw 14 million dollars.
 But FBIs best agent with 21 years of experience Carl Hanratty chases after Frank and after long pursuit, he finally catch frank at the hotel room but Frank pose himself as an agent and walks away with his fake checks. Carl finally finds Franks family and gets shocked to find out Frank is only a student. Will Carl ever be able to catch Frank?(summary taken from the website of Catch Me if You Can the musical)
 He also impersonating as a doctor and meet Brenda and fall in love with her. Brenda takes him to her house to introduce him to her family. Suddenly the FBI agent find him and try to arrest him. But he manage to run away. But at the end of this story, he turn himself in.
 The overall musical was very entertaining. I really enjoy myself. Even though I can't understand any single words (for Japanese, no worry because they have subtitle in Japanese on both side of stage), but I love to hear Kyuhyun lovely voice. My favourite part is when he sing with Brenda on the bed. His lovely voice make me fall in love with him.
For those who watch the musical for the 1st time, there are intermission during the musical. At first I thought the musical already ended when people start to go out but some remained on their seat. Luckily I just stayed at my seat and not to go out and went back to my hostel. Silly me^^.

How to go to Blue Square

-By Subway Take the underground passage in between exit no. 2 and 3 at Hangangjin Station, Line no. 6. When you go out, you will see the building but this musical is not in the building. You need to turn right and go down. You will see the large banner of the musical. 

The pictures below taken from the musical. (Attention: Camera is not allowed. But my friend manage to take some picture)






















Most of the pictures taken by Kak Hafsa. Thanks kak for your wonderful pictures.
