To get to Hongdae Flea Market, my research says that I should take the train to Hongik Univ. Station and exit from 6. But I could not find 6 at all -_- I found my way still. haha Sometimes all you need to do is do follow the crowd.
The university area is really crowded! A lot of shops and the flea market took up the playground area. If you guys watch a lot of varieties show I am sure you can recognise the playground haha
For lunch I had a 2,500won hot dog bun (the owner thinks I am not Asian hahaha) and a 1,000won waffle! Got to love the way Koreans do the waffle it's so crispy~! And the generous amount of ice cream for the waffle.. It was pretty cold but I thought I had to eat ice cream ^^
Most stuff sold at the flea market are handmade. The part closest to the entrance of the park features the new artists! The one booth that got the most attention is where this girl is drawing portraits of people but instead of being seated, both of them are standing with a glass in between them. Innovative!
Left in the late afternoon and went to Ewha University area. You cannot go wrong visiting an university area in Seoul! Affordable stuff and food. Fits my budget.

My first time hiking up a mountain! So thankful that Selene (dorm mate!) invited me to join her and friends because this is something I would not had done on my own.
It is a small mountain standing at 700+ meter but there was a lot of people! However it was very easy to distinguish the locals and foreigners. The local people will be wearing long pants and long sleeve shirt with the stick to poke the ground while foreigners will be in shorts and tee and enjoying the sun. haha It was quite a funny sight like as if we are going to different places.
The climb up was pretty easy, especially after I shit. My stomach have been grumbling non stop for quite some time now and while climbing it made me want to shit hahahaha So everytime I take a big steps I have to kek my ass really tight.
The difficult part was coming down T.T I slipped so many times! Everytime I see the loose soil I knew something gonna happen.. And it did. Maybe my shoe suck. Maybe my balance suck. I would love to do it again (although I am having the worse muscle ache ever now. Day3 after climb) but never ever with these shoes!!!
In the evening we went to Hongdae area for some wine.. hahaha you know thats not my idea. But it was pretty good! ^^ After that we drank beer. Then cocktails.. Ultimately we went clubbing on a Sunday night. lol It was a holiday so it was pretty crowded. Visited Club NB at Hongdae and with one ticket we can enter three different club but none of it were up to my expections! Now, I really learn to appreciate Singapore.
And people need to stop holding onto my shoulder. Gets on my nerve okay I'm not your robot why you want to control meeeeeeeee

Woke up with the worst ache on my calves D: Stayed in for the day and went to Nandaemun at night for dinner. It was crazy man! In order to get to the subway I had to down from the hill from my hostel and then take the stairs down to the subway station gawddddd :`( I was slower than the old people. Oh yeah, so you see I got this freaking crazy aches I kind of wonder how fit the old people are!
