Day 14: Seoul Forest

On our last day we went to Seoul Forest because we saw that you can feed the deers. The weather was so beautiful today. 

First we saw a Butterfly garden which was really beautiful. All the butterflies were flying around. It was so special. 

On our way we saw lots of flowers.

We walked further and we saw bunnies and fitness equipment which you always see in parks in Seoul.

Around the bunny cage there were a lot of fitness equipment;

We moved on and came by a wishing waterfall.  You can throw a coin in the water but you have to put it in a bowl. Nydia tried twice but failed and I succeed. Just lucky.

It was a long walk to the deers... when we arrived we couldn't feed the deers. Don't know why... but looking at them was also okay.

Then we walked over a walking bridge which was pretty long but when we arrived at the end the view of the city was amazing. So beautiful. The bridge goes over the highway to the Han river. 

Downstairs you can ride a bike along the Han River.

Then we went back but slowly because Nydia has muscles pain of her workout.. So she walked like a grandma.. whaha...

We went back again to Myeongdong because I needed to buy the new album of the Korean singer Roy Kim that just came out.. So we went to a music store and walked around... until dinner time. 

We don't like Myeongdong so much because it's so crowded and the employees of the Korean beauty shops are really pushy and they try to drag you into the stores.. Nydia even got hit with a sheetmask because she said no. They are really rude... we felt so uncomfortable... it wasn't like this before... I can't remember they were like this.

So I won't advice everyone to go to Myeongdong just go to Dongdaemun. They are friendlier and not so rude and pushy. Avoid Myeongdong and Hongdae.

Dinner.. we ate dinner at our favorite restaurant and went back to our station Dongdaemun History and Culture Park.

We did some groceries and now we are back in the hotel to start packing our suitcase.

We had lot of fun and we are a bit sad to go back home.

Thank you for reading our blog. And we see you all soon.

Day 13: SBS MTV the Show

Today we went to SBS MTV Show at SBS Prism Tower also close to Digital Media City. It's next to the MBC World where we went yesterday.

 It was a bit confusing because lots of people are waiting outside. But we had to go inside that's where the staff is waiting. To check our names and voucher. We had to wait until 6pm to go upstairs to the 3th floor for the studio. I didn't know what to expect.. But it was the strangest recording ever. A few performance where cut off.. that means a lot of performance was already been shot during the day. That's why some groups were also confused when it was cut off.. some where live some are not. There was no explanation.. they seated everyone and at 6.30pm KST they started shooting.  It's a live show so we can't imagine that they are actually live when it's filmed and edited this way.

Important notice was you can't take pictures of the studio and through the live show. That why I don't have original pictures... just ones of Twitter of SBS MTV the show and screenshots of YouTube videos.

One secret photo that Nydia took was this one:

Presenters were P.O of Block B, Momoland Yeonwoo (연우), kpop girlgroup EXID Jeongwha (정화)

It's their first show as MC's for SBS MTV the show.

Our favorite group and song today:

Nydia liked Say yes - I Miss you. 

Mine was Han Don Geun with Crazy. 

Before we went to the SBS Prism Tower we browsed at Myeongdong and than we drank at Twosome Cafe. We had to wait a long time for our drinks because there a lots of take out orders for companies.

But we were entertained by the buzzer.

It played commercials of the Korean talent show Produce 101: Season two and other.

We had early dinner close to the SBS Prism Tower. Dr. Robbins.

Day went by so fast. Because we went out later.. than we had a lot of transfer to go to SBS Prism Tower.

That's for today. Tomorrow our last full day in Seoul. Time went by so fast😓😓😓

Goodnight, xxx Lilia & Nydia
