Korea 2018 D5 (Nami Island - Spa)

Mom decided not to join us bc she's feeling unwell so dad accompanied her at airbnb. Today it's a trip only for my brothers and I. We're supposed to leave airbnb at 7am but I finished my makeup late, we departed at 7.10am. We got on the lrt of wrong direction so it wasted us another 10 mins to get on the right one ended up we missed the train. 

However, we got a refund for the tickets bc the train hasn't reached the destination yet. We then got 3 new tickets from cheongnyangnyi to gapyeong. We didn't miss it this time.
Got some coffee before the train departed
We had our breakfast on the train. It took us about 40 mins to reach gapyeong.
Sandwiches and banana milk from 7-11
When I got down the train, I realized that I left my beanie and a glove on my seat, so my bro brought me to a room, it should be info room or what, which you get help from the staff in the station. We told him I left my stuff on board and showed him the pics. He then contacted somebody and within few mins he told me my stuff were found and it'd take an hour for it to reach this station. We decided to come back later to claim it.

They're so efficient!

Idk whether Malaysia offers such efficient service or not. 

Gapyeong Station
Getting some tourist map
We went to the port by tour bus (6,000 won for unlimited ride that day) and took a ferry to nami island.  I thought the entrance fees is 8,000 won for foreigner with passport as I read online but no, it's 10,000 won no matter what.

Taking a bus to the port

Here we are!



Upon reaching, we walked around and took tons of pic. I didn't take pic at the typical place where Winter Sonata was filmed bc there're tourists all over there. We walked to another direction and the scenery was so breathtaking! The overall atmosphere was so calming and soothing.

After leaving Nami island, we had Lunch at CU, I got a tteokbokki bowl and coffee.


 


Then we took a bus to petite france. We didnt go in bc the time is quite limited. Idw to rush myself. We wanna be back at Hongdae by 5pm to meet parents but we missed the bus just mins ago so we waited for another 50 mins for the next one. I claimed my beanie and glove from the station before going back hahaha.



We decided to have dinner around hongdae bc we'd be watching Nanta Show here tonight. I googled and found 豚壽百 which serves pork soup with rice. We never had this here so it's good to try it out.

The must-eat pork soup
These were some cute lil dumplings
Overall I like it! It's somehow similar to 豬肉粉 in kk hahaha. 

Ck actually booked VIP seat for Nanta Show and our seat was right in the middle of the theatre. I enjoyed the show very much. No doubt it's the most popular show here in Korea. It's fun, funny, and surprises coming after surprises. Strongly recommend to whoever going to Korea!
Tics for Nanta show
 After we're back in airbnb, my brothers and I packed a lil and head to U-city spa. We got the free voucher after booking the ski package. Parents weren't interested so it's just 3 of us.

It's a new experience for me. I got towels, clothes and locker key from the counter. Then I put my belongings in the locker. Idk what to do next. I saw a Korean took off all her clothes including undies and went into the shower room. Yes, completely N.A.K.E.D. It took me so long time to gather my courage to do the same. Luckily there weren't many people that time or I will feel so awkward. 

You can pay extra for hair washing, massage, scrubbing and other treatment. I wanna try scrubbing but too bad the ajumma rested already. So I showered and wore the clothes provided then headed upstairs to the common room. I went to the hot sauna room 3 times and rested in the interval but I didn't actually sweat much.

We had this drink called 'sikhye' which was fermented rice drinks.
