Day 12: MBC World

Today we went to MBC World. I bought Tickets at the website of Klook. https://www.klook.com/activity/2200-mbc-world-experience-seoul

It is only 13 euros (16.000 won) for the entrance.

From our hotel we had to go with the subway from station Dongdaemun History & Culture Park to Digital Media City.

We took the Green Line 2 to Hongik University and there we had to transfer to the airport Railroad line to Digital Media City. 

Just like in Japan.. Soeul also has a lot of Vending Machines, but not on the streets.. mostly inside the subway station.

We had to walk for 10 minutes to Sunsaek Station. There next to the police station is a tunnel to the MBC Building.. 

There is also the SBS Prism Tower where we will be there Tomorrow and other broadcasting studios. 

This is the place where they actually filmed Avengers: Age of Ultron.

There is also a Starroad with stars and handprints of famous kpop or kdrama stars.

And outside are few cardboards.

We were early so we looked around and got something to eat at bakery Tour le Jours...

Then around 13.30 we went for the MBC World  tour. You got 3 zones: M, B and C.

We started with A. You got some history about MBC than we went straight to a hologram concert of Big Bang. Which was awesome.

Then we got some pictures in costumes.

We got to read some news and weather reports which was quite difficult and a VR experience of the MBC drama site. We got to do a dance experience.

We tried to dance on A pink- Mr. Chu. 

Also a signature of a famous Korean star. I got Lee Joon Ki. He plays in My Girl and latest kdrama Scarlet Heart with IU. 

Nydia got an autograph of Shinee Choi Min Ho.

Then we went upstairs to the 7th floor, Newsroom Visit. Where we saw the news area. You can't take pictures of that. Just looking in through the glass and screens. 

Than we went to the 4th floor (Historical Drama Zone) where you can take pictures of 2 famous drama and you can play a scene which was funny.

Next to Zone B. It's like a Trick-eye museum but with famous scenes. It was small but funny.

Than we went to Zone C. Where you can take pictures with stars and you can sing with a kpop star but we didn't know the songs.

I printed one photo with Big Bang G-Dragon

Nydia made one with Psy.

Some photos are stored on the card where you can print the photos out or if you want everything you can buy a USB stick for 30 dollars. We thought it wasn't worth it.. so we printed 1 picture for 3000 won.

After the MBC World Tour we went inside the MBC Brand shop where you can buy merchandise of Infinity Challenge, MBC and of the drama serie 'W'. 

The art postcards... you had to choose between set A, B or C.

I got all 3.

Official bussinesscards of the character of Kdrama 'W'

A lot of merchandise of Infinity Challenge.. i wanted opmerking so I got Yoo Jae Suk and Haha.

Then we also saw a shop with the logo of Produce 101 Season 2. They also sell merchandise but of famous programmas like Goblin/ Produce 101 and more..So we wanted to check this one out. (Later more about this program)

Then we went back to Hongik University were Hongdae is. The place for students.. but it was really crowded. Like last Friday.

We just browsed and then we went back to our station to get something to eat. 

Nydia wanted some Korean BBQ.. so we got some beef and pork... It was delicious.

We had to find some gifts.. so we looked in Hyundai Outlet mall and Doota Mall.

Nydia wanted to have her Soy Ice cream again.. so that's why we went to Doota again. Located on the 6th floor.

Now we are back at the hotel. Doing Laundry and Nydia uses the fitness room.

We are busy for you to make the blog and vlog...

Until we call it a day.
