Korea is an interesting country and in many ways, she resembles cultures from both China and Japan. I am going to share with you the diary of my last trip to Seoul.
Day1:
After checking into our hotel in the Gangnam area, we went out for dinner and explored the area.
The Gangnam and Apgujeong areas in Seoul are excellent places to start if you want to have firsthand experience of the modernization of Korea. You will find many shops. Apgujeong(the equivalent of Ginza in Tokyo), where Korea's latest fashion trends always start first, can be described as the No. 1 fashion area. It's the place where famous foreign brands launch their first shop in Korea.
Nearby, you also have the COEX Mall. It is a entertainment facility in the heart of the city. With over 250 large commercial stores and over 100,000 visitors on weekdays ...
Advantages: Nice food, Convenient transport Disadvantages: None

Korea food is very tasty. You may not like it when you first see or smell it but I am sure you will love it once you have tried. The noodles and meat dishes are the best and the most famous. The well known dishes also include Korean style barbeque, hot pots and stone soup with chicken. When you order a main or rice dish, it will come with a few side dishes such as bean sprouts, kimchi, spinach, pickles and fishcake.

Korean language (Hanguk-mal), easily, quickly, and cheerly. I have four sonsengnim during spring and summer season classes. They were all women.
After the class I usually went to the nearest restaurant (siktang) for lunch. I frequently ate rice with fish-egg (albab). Kimchi (a kind of Korean salad) always available in all Korean restaurants. Kimchi is "national-food". For me, kimchi was too spicy.
Sometimes, I went to Nepal restaurant near Korea University or Pakistan restaurant in Itaewon (an international-suburb in Seoul). You need at least 3,000 Won (+/- USD 3) for a standard meal in Korean restaurant; but in Nepal and Pakistan restaurants the lower price for a standard meal is 6,000 Won (+/- USD 6). My lunch at Nepal or Pakistan restaurants was usually kitchen-baryani or mutton-baryani; served with Indian rice.
After lunch, I ...
