Hanbok Experience: Does it Suit Me?
Good news from Myeongdong fans! hahaha *well im one of them since 2010*
you can try wearing Hanbok in M-Plaza, which is located in Myeongdong area. Actually its not a new place in Myeongdong, but its so famous recently since there are so many people going to Korea for a short getaway.
Do you know Hanbok?? Hanbok is traditional Korean dress. It is often characterized by vibrant colors and simple lines without pockets.
Rather than embroidery, which was reserved for royal wear, color is the most important element Hanbok is all about color. The color is the design. It's not about what's stuck on it.
These days, Koreans themselves tend to break out the Hanbok only for special occasions such as weddings, funerals, first birthdays and major family gatherings.
If you go to Myeongdong, you can try to wear it for FREE! yes for free!~ you have 15 minutes to go around with pretty Hanbok and the cute accessories. they also provide the photo booth with very nice background. If you go to Myeongdong alone, dont worry. you can ask the staff to help taking pics for you~ they are so nice! ^^
Seoul Global Culture and Tourism Center is located in Myeongdong M-Plaza 5th floor. They have first come-first served service. so, you have to go earlier to do booking first, and they will tell you what time you have to go back to Seoul Global Culture and Tourism Center. While waiting your turn, you can go around Myeongdong for 1-2 hours, and violaaaa your turn will come.
Some staffs there will help you to wear the Hanbok and some accessories such a headband or hairpin. After that, you will be ready to take beautiful pics with beautiful background.
unfortunately it's closed every weekend and public holidays T_T Please make sure you go on the right time.
For the booking time, I recommend you to go before lunch time, because I went there after lunch time twice and its fully booked! T_T
Myeongdong M-Plaza is the black building, right beside Forever 21. There's ZARA on the 1st floor so you will not miss it :)

The Magnificent Palace : Gyeongbokgung
hollaaaaa.
just came back from my byutipulll trip with my sisters and my friends. I hope I can go to Korea again next year..
on the first day, -1 degree Celsius was surprised us a lot! We thought spring will be so warm, but its so cold instead of warm!
after check in, take a shower etc etc etc, we went to Gyeongbokgung!
You can see this kind of view as soon as you go out from Gyeongbokgung Station Exit no. 5.
(and you can see palace-theme-station in Gyeongbokgung Station, its so beautiful)
Gyeongbokgung Palace is also commonly referred to as the “Northern Palace” because its location is furthest north when compared to the neighboring palaces of Changdeokgung (Eastern Palace) and Gyeongheegung (Western Palace).
Gyeongbokgung Palace is arguably the most beautiful and remains the largest of all five palaces.
The interesting thing, you can try to wear Gate Guard uniform for free! they have limited time in a day for this one. So you can check below picture for your reference.
Unfortunately, when we were there its going to be closed soon, so only 2 of us were allowed to try the costume T_T huhuhu i will go there again next time for trying it
If you want your visit being memorable, try to visit when they have royal guard changing ceremony.
Please note this daily schedule, and make sure you come like 10 minutes before.
Sumunjang (Royal Guard) Changing Ceremony:
10:00, 13:00, 15:00 / three times a day / 20 minutes per ceremony
Gwanghwamun Gate Guard-on-Duty Performance:
11:00, 14:00, 16:00 / three times a day / 10 minutes per ceremony
The Royal Guard-Changing Ceremony is a great opportunity to experience a rare traditional scene in Korea. Be sure to bring a camera to take lots of pictures. The guards’ splendid costumes, with their brilliant primary colors, are a real pleasure to see.
Last but not least, you can take picture with the real gate guard after the ceremony finished. We decided to take some of pics with them
unfortunately because of tight schedule, we didn't go inside the Palace. My sisters and I have been there before, so we just skipped for going inside. The admission fee is about 3000 won for each person.
and DO NOT COME on Monday, since it's closed every Monday.
so do you want to try to wear Gate Guard Custome? which Gate Guard do you want to be? :D

A Childhood Dream: Jeju Teddy Bear Museum
1st post in 2015~ wuahahahaha.
I wish I could update this blog more often =,="
today topic is Jeju Teddy Bear Museum!!! my high school friend just sent me Line yesterday, and asked me about Teddy Bear Museum. so, here we go!
I'm totally a big fan of teddy bear. Research has recently revealed that around 10% of adults sleep with a teddy bear! Picking up teddy and having a cuddle is often part of the bedtime ritual that supports me in a good night’s sleep. hohoho
so, when I heard about Teddy Bear Museum in Korea, I squeezed it up in my itinerary.
What's inside?
It's museum that full of teddy bears~ It has many kinds of theme, like fairytale, superhero, famous world stars etc etc etc. To be honest, I'm not a good photographer, so I cant take pics with good angle!
some of people there took very good pics, so the result was like a real one!
Have u ever watched Korean drama Princess Hours (궁? Chae Gyeong went to Jeju Teddy Bear Museum that time. I forgot which episode it is.
You can spot Princess Hours corner when you go to Teddy Bear Museum.
Do you know Alfred? I adore him so much! kekeke. Alfred is Shin's best friend. Shin always brings Alfred wherever he goes, since he doesnt have many friends.
For shopping mania, dont worry! They have Teddy Bear Museum shop on the ground floor. The teddy bear doll is quite expensive, but I suggest to buy one for your companion during night's sleep ♥
Oh, this kind of pic is mandatory! no one will believe you going to Teddy Bear Museum without this photo =)) you will not miss it since the bear is sooo big!
Teddy Bear museum in Jeju has outdoor area! You can go outside and meet those cutie teddy bear and friends.
Last but not least, you can watch the cutie performance from Elvis Bear! kekekeke. the performance is about 5-10 minutes.. and the show is held every 20 minutes!
Unfortunately, teddy bear museum in Seoul had been closed since end of 2013. You can read my post about teddy bear museum in Seoul here
are you a fan of teddy bear like me?? Do you have any plans to go to Teddy Bear Museum in Jeju? You can ask anything in the comment area~ goodluck!
