Day 8 and 9 - Like what?

Yes. Like what? We basically didn't go anywhere.
Okay, going out to meet someone today but.. nothing else. I was walking around the Fortress Trail and Hyehwamun yesterday for about 15 minutes but I wasn't in the mood to follow the wall any longer as it was hot and humid.
Today? Having breakfast at an Italian restaurant, ending up at a café, my German friend leaving and then me hanging out with a Korean friend alone.
I regret nothing. Comparing Korea and Germany? Talking about some koreaboos thinking pink, sparkling unicorns are in South Korea?
No, I don't regret it.
And there's someone I know once I'll end up in Korea for my studies. After all I'm quite happy today. (And excuse me but I can't wear any jeans anymore.. it's uncomfortable now and way too hot outside)
Ah, I'm talking nonsense. Just wanted to tell you I'm still pretty much alive and actually healthy aaaand.. yes.
Oh, btw, I had a Pizza Burger and a Pasta Sandwich yesterday. Pasta on a sandwich.. excuse you, Korea, it's awesome but you need to get used to it. haha

Day 7 - Gwanghwamun and Yeouido

First: Holy sh*t, I can't believe we've been here for exactly a week in 5 hours.
Time flies by so fast. I'll be back in my beloved city Fukuoka in about a week. ♡
Enough, I love Seoul as well.
So today we went to Gwanghwamun first. You know, Gwanghwamun Square appeared really often in dramas and then again.. standing there. It doesn't really feel like it's real but it is.. weird.
A group from Mokpo asked my friend and me to take a photo with them. I think they wandered to Seoul and wore orange shirts. Why I mention this? If one of those ever reads this entry, please contact me! I need to see those photos once. hahahaha
Okay, dancing Gangnam Style was weird and I basically died.. and the guys told us how beautiful we were (yes, I feel amazing :P Ill never understand why Asian guys like me but German don't.. what's the difference? Whyyy?! Like.. I give up on understanding men.)
After leaving Gwanghwamun we went to Yeouido. First the IFC Mall.
Theres a light smell of perfume but really weak so it actually smells pretty fresh and nice (yes, I pay attention to such things), the shops are okay.. I have H&M in Germany as well, why would I go shopping there in Korea?
I'm the happiest person on earth when entering book stores. You see, the book stores sell everything about the media and there are huge CD sections actually. I was so happy when I found the CDs at YP Books ;; And I mean 30.000 Won for 3 CDs isn't much. No shipping fees, and cheaper than on the internet.
Following we actually wanted to go to Seoul Color Park and Piano Waterway but whoever wrote this description needs to freaking tell me where there's a Mini Stop?! Are you f**king kidding me?!
However, we've been exploring the Yeouido Park instead. It's a really nice park seen in movies and dramas as well. Suddenly there's this green place surrounded by huge company buildings..
Whatever, I've been talking enough already. Some pictures should be enough, so yeah~

Day 6 - N Seoul Tower

Forgive me, I forgot to post yesterday.. I don't really know why but I just accept it like this.
And it's already a little after midnight so I guess you need to forgive me if I suck at spelling now. (Typos are my special friends anyways..)
So yesterday we went to the N Seoul Tower. At first I was like.. "why..?" because it's actually known best as the Namsan Tower but well - why not.
So the good and the bad things:
+ It's an awesome place and the view is just wow
+ The entrance fee is completely fine (20.000 Won for two people + popcorn + two drinks.. that's maybe 8€ per person but please find out on your own how much it is in your currency)
+ You see that place 38153920 times in dramas and suddenly to be there is just like.. what the heeeell..?! Awesome?!
+ Did I mwntion the view? Since it's a tower on a mountain it's quite.. high.
+ The cable car is worth an experience. Saw it so often (Boys Over Flowers lover here) and finally used it once :P
+ Park Hyo Shin - Wildflower playing everywhere! Let me marry this song..
- Couples! Couples everywhere! #hashtag #foreveralone It's not a good feeling to see all those happy couples and be alone
- Those locks.. yes, it is cute but again leads to the point with the couples..
- Onion popcorn and cheese popcorn still sounds completely weird to me Oo
You see, its not a good feeling to be there alone or only with friends but a bit awkward..
Whatever, take those photos and leave me alone with my depression..

Day 5 - Lotte Department Store and Lotte Young Plaza

Today we went to Lotte like you might have thought by reading the title.
To those, who dont know Lotte: It's a huge shopping mall. 14 floors Lotte Department Store, 10 floors Lotte Young Plaza (okay, 9, and a garden on the 10th floor).

I dont know what I should tell you.
But whoever claims Korean men aren't handsome - heck, I'm going to beat your ass, b***.
Really, I know that we shouldn't expect idols. I don't do this and I don't want an idol but..
The guys working at Lotte. Especially in the men's section and the duty free stores (the luxury stores to be exact) are freaking handsome. Especially those security guys in black suits. FLOWER BOY ALERT!
(Ladies, you know what I mean. I know you do.)

Enough. Enough.
Just some photos.. sadly not of those men, it would've been too obvious ( not that many because I was too distracted and I wasn't sure if it was allowed..)

WOh, and the CDs I've bought.. help. History and Jung Joon Young.. I'm so happy *___* ♡
