My
chingu of
chingus is in Seoul for a visit and we've been so busy seeing the sights that I haven't updated you, my
imaginary uh, internet pals, on what's happening. Today, he's off exploring on his own, downtown. On Saturday, after arrival, we went to see the neon signs at Guro Digital--its nightlife scene not as crowded as usual, perhaps because of the temperature. Still, the rotisserie chicken we had at "third course" was great.
We dropped by Itaewon on Sunday for brunch and a quick tavern and back alley tour, then made for Bongcheon for dinner and what might best be described as a delicious "milky soup" called makgeolli.
Monday was more in the way of traditional sightseeing, as we visited Tapgol Park and the 10 story marble pagoda of Wongaksa ...
... the world's largest and smallest book ...
... Insadong galleries and shops ...
... toured the hanok maeul on the mountainside in Samcheong-dong ...
... and visited the Dongdaemun market area, before coming home for dinner at Gangseo-gu cheong.
