You actually could have done ALL Local shopping and food and I would have been here for 3 hrs. The food looked so yummy. Some of my FAVES are spicey fried chicken, seaweed rolls, fried pancakes, spicey squid & pork, dumplings etc etc etc...🤤😋 I SO Appreciate this....watching for the 3rd time now...WONDERFUL MEMORIES!!!😁🌺

The Cat Café 😻- are they all rescues; is that the reason for the café, to raise funds to house and feed them? We need a dog café… though they’d probably pinch your sandwiches 😆. Love the food more than the shopping to be honest. Great seeing other parts of the world.

Hi Mel, I was waiting for this. I like the Line characters and I would choose Brown the bear. I am so into food so I'll take note Gwang-Jang Market is a place to be once in Korea I thought those octopuses are still alive but as you said it's quite good so I think I will try it too. How I wish the Starfield Library was open. It's so huge and really pretty for the gram. I love finding out that LV comes with more modern and edgy stuff too. Though quite excited to see the all black Chanel building and was anticipating seeing what it was inside, it's okay because you get to visit their mall outlet. And oh the boiled octopus and pork in the ending, I want to try how soft and flavorful their taste are. 😊

@yj20135 Жыл бұрын

OMG, can't believe you came to my city! Hope you enjoyed your stay xx 1. The hotel you stayed is Lotte [lo-tay], one of the top two companies in South Korea. 2. Dongdaemun is famous for cheap clothes shopping because all the wholesale businesses are located there. 3. The dish you tried around 26:00 is probably a sam-hap, which is eating kimchi, bossam (boiled pork), and fermented fish (this case replaced w/ octopus) all together in one bite! So trying everything separately probably is not as impressive as eating them all together xx
