Experience of the stay
I chose a hotel within walking distance from the venue to enjoy my otaku activities in Korea.
The hotel was right in front of Cheonggyecheon Stream, which made it a joy to explore the surrounding area. It was also very convenient, being just a few minutes' walk from the subway station. Traveling to the musical venue was smooth, and I felt safe returning to the hotel after the show.
Myeongdong was also within walking distance!
The hotel staff spoke Japanese, so I felt reassured if anything came up. Moreover, there were complimentary bottles of water in the room, which was a thoughtful touch.
I also appreciated having a bathtub.
The room was clean and comfortable, allowing for a pleasant stay.
Experiences during the trip
Upon arriving in Seoul, I left my luggage at the hotel and walked along the Cheonggyecheon Stream to Myeongdong.
I was approached by some ajoshis while walking, and we took a photo together. Haha.
They recommended some shops to me, but since I was traveling alone, I’ll save those for next time.
For lunch, I had Samgyetang at a restaurant called Gohyang. I was sweating while eating! It was delicious and seemed healthy.
In the afternoon, I took the subway to Gangnam.
My first experience with semi-permanent makeup was quick despite being quite nervous. I’m excited that makeup might become easier from now on.
Finally, it was time for the main purpose of my trip, the musical.
The venue was just a short walk from the hotel.
After the show, I went shopping at Ollyan.
Before I knew it, I had bought a lot.
The next morning, I checked out and headed back to Myeongdong one last time.
My target was the pretzel specialty store 'BREADY POST'.
There was already a line in the morning, and I chuckled, realizing I might have underestimated it… hurrying to switch to takeout and heading straight to the airport.
It was a short stay, but a perfect journey to meet my favorite people!!
