The last part for this day. We went to Hae Dong Yong Gung Temple.

Had to walk up the hill but the hard work was worth it. We were greeted by amazing view!

Left: People threw coins to wish for good blessings.
Right: The temple building.

Breathtaking views!

Left: Must take photo of me with the view ;p
Right: They have many miniatures there. Very cute.

Left: You can bath the statue. I used to do this when I was young when I went to the temple with my grandmother.
Right: The prettiest girl in the program and I ;p

After the temple trip and waited for the bus for almost an hour, finally we’re back to the dormitory. We later joined the rest for dinner. Again, without our Korean buddies, simple went to a place around the uni for dinner.

Didn’t know what to order, we just asked the boss to recommend *LOL* The dish was quite sweet. There’s potato, carrot, chicken, and glass noodle. No idea what’s the actual name of the dish, most importantly it’s not bad ;p

Anyway, end of day 6.

We went around to look for a proper place for lunch.

We splited into two groups, one went for Irish cuisine, another went to the market to hunt for some Korean food. We ventured through the fish market and finally we found a place.

We just decided that we would go into the next eatery we found because we couldn’t decide which to go. We ended up in this small cosy shop selling fried chicken. Since the menu didn’t have any English words, one of us tried to speak “koglish” (mixture of Korean and English) to communicate with the shop owner, a very friendly lady.

We ordered chicken feet and two types of fried chicken. In our group, there’s 2 Malaysians, an Australian, and a Spaniard. 1 Malaysian doesn’t like chicken feet (obviously not me ;p), the other two never had chicken feet before. It was one experience for them. The chicken feet were spicy, very spicy but tasted great, even Malaysians are saying it’s spicy, the other two sure felt worst hehehe… However, we did enjoy it. Meanwhile, the fried chicken was awesome! Yummy! One is normal fried chicken, another one with sauce.

Eeels could be found all over the market and they’re HUGE and LONG!

After lunch, we went to the bus stop to take the bus to the temple.

Sneak peek of the temple… More to come…

6th day in Korea.

Left: Sharing about the life of a foreigner in Korea. I don’t remember his name hahaha… I threw my course book away because I need to make space for my luggage. He’s a lecturer in Pukyong National University. If you have a PhD, you are “Ph.inisheD”! He’s “Ph.inisheD”! *LOL*

Right: After the special lecture, we had a briefing on salmonori as we would be having a salmonori session after lunch.

Amazing performance. I’m trying to upload the video but have been experiencing problem uploading. Will try again and share with you when it’s up.

I got my hand on it too. It was fun. We took turn and while waiting, I took some photos with my new friends.

That night after dinner, we went for karaoke. First karaoke session in Korea.

It’s so different from karaoke in Malaysia or Australia.

So grand. Most importantly, it’s cheap! Can range between KRW1000 to KRW5000 (about AUD1 to AUD5) per hour. No drink, no food provided but it’s fine. This room we’re using has 3 screens all over the room. So fun!

After karaoke, we went for drinking.

It’s common for them to drink and eat at the same time. There’s definitely food when drinking. I tried some worm dish, really not my type of food, tasted weird but at least I tried. Can you spot it? If not mistaken, it’s silkworm larvae.

US! Malaysians, Koreans, Norweigian, Chinese, and the Americans. We are one, helping each other, accepting each other differences just like how rmcn credit services helped the people in their community. Our Korean buddies helped us so much and we really owed them so much! Without them, we’ll be really lost here.

We had Learn Korean Class twice a week. Well… Reading and pronouncing it is not a problem but knowing what you’re reading, it’s a bit of problem. That’s the unique thing about the Korean language, you can read, you know how to read but you have no idea what you’re reading unlike other languages*LOL*

View from the floor I lived, 20th floor. The view of the bridge and skyscrapper were amazing!

Headed for Korean BBQ for dinner. I don’t know where’s the place hahaha… Whether it’s near uni or at Seomyeon ;p

Had soju and beer. Then we mixed soju and beer together. Nice or not? I’m not a fan of alcohol, no comment, they’re just alcohol to me. I drank for the sake of tasting only.

Girls’ night out! Korean BBQ+Soju+beer with awesome friends from Korea, Malaysia, and the US.

After dinner, we went to Gwangalli Beach. The place where lovers love to be. It’s really a nice place to be with your loved one. Oh… Remind me again on how pathetic I am *LOL* Hoepfully one day I’ll walk here with my darling ;p

4 lonely girls enjoying each other company.

Very nice view.

We went to the amusement park nearby. Didn’t play, too cold to play.

That’s the end of our 4th day in Busan, Korea.
