Seoul is the kind of city that lets you live multiple lives in one trip—especially when you’re with friends. From dancing under neon lights in Hongdae to catching golden hour on a quiet temple rooftop, every moment felt electric yet grounded. 🛍 Vintage Vibes in Dongmyo – We hunted for hidden gems in overflowing racks and came out with the coolest finds. Perfect for fashion lovers and bargain hunters alike! 🌸 Temple Serenity – Amid the buzz, we found calm at Bongeunsa Temple. The contrast between tradition and the city skyline is unreal. 🌇 Rooftop Magic – Sipping makgeolli above the rooftops of Itaewon as the sun dipped behind the mountains was chef’s kiss. TIP: I recommend the JW Marriot Seoul for the best Rooftop views! 🌳 Park Life – From lazy mornings at Hangang Park to spontaneous picnics and bike rides, Seoul’s green spots gave us space to breathe and laugh. 🕺 Nightlife Stories – The energy in Hongdae and Gangnam? Unmatched. Karaoke battles, bar hopping, and unexpected dance-offs made every night unforgettable. Seoul is for the seekers—of fun, of beauty, of connection. And doing it with your people? Even better. #seoul #koreatravel #friendstrip #nightlife #templevibes #vintageshopping #hangang #rooftopviews #filmphotography

This restaurant is located near Dongjin Market. It is an impressive place with tartines and small plate menus. If I were to add a description of the menu I tried, the mushroom tartine that brought out the flavor of mushrooms was a bite with a light taste and a good texture that spread a savory flavor. The grilled asparagus with mayonnaise sauce is a highly recommended menu. The combination of the juice of the asparagus, personally marinated olives, and mayonnaise sauce brings out the freshness. The pasta menu is generous and delicious enough to fill your mouth. The pollack roe pasta is a special food that leaves a lasting impression with the flavor of sesame oil. The apple tartine that I ate last also had personally glazed and pickled apples and peanuts on it, and it is not an ordinary dish that requires much care. I highly recommend this place where you can have a clean atmosphere, neat, but full and plentiful meal. #CanadaFlightEvent

This weekend, I saw a super cheap air ticket and decided to go on a spontaneous trip. The destination was Pyeongchang, South Korea, specifically Phoenix Ski Resort. This place has always made me look forward to it, and I finally have the opportunity to experience it myself! ### Check in at Phoenix Ski Resort When I arrived at Phoenix Ski Resort, I was extremely excited. What surprised me even more was that the front desk told me that because there were rooms available, they upgraded my accommodation for free! This unexpected surprise made me very happy, and the view in the room was breathtaking, with a snow-covered ski resort just outside the window. ### Skiing Experience At the ski resort, I immediately felt that incredible pleasure. The night skiing experience is particularly unforgettable. The snow track under the lights seems to have turned into a dreamlike picture. Skiing during the day was equally exciting. Although the snow was a little hard, it did not affect my enjoyment of skiing. Every time I slide down, I can feel the wind whistling past my ears. The feeling of freedom is really incomparable. This trip to Pyeongchang was really good value for money, and the weather was perfect and sunny, allowing me to enjoy the warm sunshine while skiing. Although the snow was a bit hard, the overall experience still made me feel very satisfied. Looking forward to coming here again next time to continue my skiing adventure! 💞Recommendation reason: Good quality and low price 💰Per capita consumption: NT$20,000 including food, accommodation, transportation and ski resort fees

#0yentravelFebruary2025 ANTIQUE COFFEE Yeonnam Branch is located on the first floor of a building on the main street heading from Hongdae to Yeonnam-dong. When you enter the store, your eyes will be drawn to the cakes, but you have to find a seat first. After that, you pick your favorite cakes and sweets on your plate and pay for them. All the sweets and baked goods were so cute that it was hard to choose, so I decided to share them with my friends! It was also nice that the staff member spoke a little Japanese and said, "Please bring the plate you've eaten over here!" I'd like to try other cakes, so I'll definitely be returning. ▪️ANTIQUE COFFEE Yeonnam Branch 113-3 Donggyo-dong, Mapo-gu, Seoul 0507-1401-0508 10:00-22:00 #Seoul #SeoulCafe #YeonnamDongCafe

#0yentravelFebruary2025 I went to a restaurant called Natari Gani Nara in Hongdae. First of all, I was impressed that the price was reasonable and I could eat crab🦀 marinated in soy sauce without any smell🥹 Then there was the seaweed! There were two types of seaweed, but the light green seaweed that was thinly sliced ​​and dried was very delicious. This seaweed is very lucky because it is hard to find in ordinary restaurants😉It is probably high-quality seaweed😌 It seems that Korean people wrap rice and crab in it and eat it😋 It has a stronger greenness and a richer flavor than ordinary seaweed😍 The crab was not too salty, so I could eat it forever. The deliciousness of the miso and the deliciousness of the meat on rice are the perfect match, an unforgettable taste 🥹 📍Location: https://maps.app.goo.gl/KnRdf2zWmNpCf19d8?g_st=com.google.maps.preview.copy #Hongdae entrance#Hongdae #Blue crab #Soy sauce gejang #Korean seaweed

Going to Korea to see a concert in December! The round trip tickets I booked were all from Dulwich We stayed in a great hotel at Yunxi Station, and the administrator gave us cookies. I went to Hongdae the day before the concert. It was very lively and fun to visit! I also went to a pizza place that was the same as my idol’s. It was delicious! Strawberry milk is super delicious 🍓🤍 The concert is in Incheon. If you have time, you should be able to have fun in Incheon~ All in all, I really enjoyed this trip (maybe it was also because I went to see the concert hahahahahahaha). I especially recommend the accommodation! ! !

#January travel support event #Hongdae #Hapjeong Station Hapjeong Station Mazesoba restaurant Kokunoya Address: 1st floor, 48 Seongji-gil, Mapo-gu, Seoul This is a Mazesoba restaurant near Hapjeong Station. They also sell lemonade! The price is in the early 10,000 won range, but it was delicious. Maybe because today is Wednesday, there was a Wednesday discount. I think it would be good to eat Mazesoba and rice too!

Speaking of Korea, it's yakiniku! Samgyeopsal! Myeongdong is good for shopping, but if you go to Hongdae, you'll find lots of cute clothing stores. There are also cute cafes, so it's a place you can enjoy all day. And there are many kinds of hotteok at the food stalls. The one I had was with honey, so you can eat it like a snack. Eating at a soy sauce stall will also be one of my memories. Mandu, abalone porridge, Han River ramen! Be careful not to eat too much ⚠️ Please tell me about your favorite places in Korea ♪📍Location: Seoul #Going to Korea #Hongdae Cafe #Overseas Travel Strategy #Korea Trip #Korean Gourmet #Korean Cafe

#favouriteitinerary This is a delicious and popular dish from a Korean restaurant, specifically the Grilled Gop Chang Variety Beef Intestine Platter at a place near Hongik University. 1. The dish is a grilled platter of beef intestines in various styles, called Gop Chang. 2. The beef is described as being quite chewy, which suggests that it's a bit firmer in texture than other types of beef. 3. You think it would benefit from being served with a side of rice, which is a common accompaniment to many Korean dishes. 4. The minimum order for this platter is for two people, but they list the price as if it's for one person. 5. As a bonus, customers receive a free additional soup and some side dishes (ban chan) with their order. This sounds like a flavorful and satisfying meal, especially if you like beef intestines! For me Is a must Try food because Malaysia did not have this food. #travel #localfood #vacation_seoul #hongdae
