Seoul Day 2 | Hanbok/Tongin Market

Seoul Day 2 | Hanbok/Tongin Market






I don’t think I’d ever wear Kimono outside. Wouldn’t I though? LOL so anyways went these girls that I am on this trip with but just met that day. Basically, one of them I went to the same university and one is her friend. Didn’t feel strange at all! Is that weird? It’s as if we knew each other all along. We had breakfast in this normal bakery cafe before renting because we were kind of hungry. Went to the renting place next. Man, the variety blew my mind!! I went for the classic looking.







Yas!







We rented it for 2 hours I think. Or 3? I can’t remember. We then went to the palace. If you’re wearing hanbok, they actually wave the fee to enter the place. We took so many pictures!!







Josie and me




Palace






I like how we all have different color combination going on. Will definitely try the pastel one next time! 










I have no idea but I think this is where the king used to sit. 





After that, we went to this place and ate lunch. Okay so we were supposed to eat breakfast here but it was closed. Funny because I was telling them on our group chat that I noticed that they open the stores late in Seoul but they said it’s a 24H shop but not really. Anyways...I’m happy still. Also, why you fooling us Google Maps? Anyways food!

Then off to Tongin Market after we met with my college friend Kimmy! 








This is what the empty bento box looks like





Kimmy. The seller looks so cute and just very into the conversation. 







Soondae!





This is what the market looks like. It’s just like a shotengai. Also, I don’t think the food is very fresh. I’m just saying. 










I don’t recommend it. I mean, just have your Korean food elsewhere. Not worth it. 










You saw that empty spot, this is what happenedI went home after that because 3rd day is kind of my highlight. That’s all! :)

Wearing Traditional Korean Dress

Wearing Traditional Korean Dress






When we were on our way searching for food, we found this stall at Gwanghwamun Plaza and we were like, must try. 










They do have a small selection of colors to choose from and I actually wished to wear the pink one but yeah too many people in queue that I was just like, whatever comes. 










But I'm totally not complaining. I kinda dig the color. Looks so much like their flag. 








Gwanghwamun Plaza






My friend and I landed on the same color. #MayForever. 










Basically, to avail, you must sign their guestlist, present an ID, and they give you 10 minutes to do whatever you want. The family in front of us kind of roamed around a little bit even. We didn't go far from the place. Because we were hungry. Ciao!
