After visiting the Jeongbang Waterfall, we headed over to Cheonjiyeon Waterfall because it was nearby despite the rain. The Cheonjiyeon Waterfall is basically a sequence of 3 waterfalls which are really near to each other. Truth is, I went to take a look at the Cheonjiyeon Waterfall because it was a UNESCO World Heritage site. And like the Jeongbang Waterfall, I looked at it and … Continue reading Jeju Island Adventure: Cheonjiyeon Waterfall
Jeongbang Waterfall is supposedly the only waterfall in Asia which falls directly into the ocean so we headed over there as soon as we arrived in Jeju Island. However, luck wasn’t on our side and it was raining when we got there so the view was like “meh”. The waterfall itself was just alright to me. I’ve seen nicer and more majestic waterfalls so I … Continue reading Jeju Island Adventure: Jeongbang Waterfall
Another must eat in Jeju Island is their seafood; sashimi, soup, bbq, whatever. My Korean colleague was recommending that I try the sea urchin soup but the random restaurant that I walked into along the road leading to the Seongsan Ilchubong didn’t have the sea urchin soup so I went with their seafood soup. OH. MY. GOD. I could SMELL the sweetness of the seafood broth … Continue reading Jeju Island Adventure: Seafood Soup
I’ve been hearing so much about Jeju Black Pork and how it is a must have when you are in Jeju Island. Now that I have given it a go, I can confirm that it is TRUE. The meat is TO DIE FOR. The best part about it all is how the meat is brought out un-marinated. So you can taste the natural sweetness of … Continue reading Jeju Island Adventure: Jeju Black Pork
Initially, we wanted to get a guide to take us around Jeju Island for our trip there but there was none available so after much consideration, we decided to go with renting a car to self-drive on Jeju Island. We worked out the Math, it was way cheaper. We rented the Kia Morning, the smallest and cheapest car (like most typical cheapo Singaporeans), from KT Kumho (ENG … Continue reading Jeju Island Adventure: Driving on The Other Side of the Road in Jeju Island
If you haven’t heard, the there was a train collision on the subway in Seoul earlier today and just for the record, I was nowhere near the accident when it happened. In fact, I didn’t even know there was an accident until people started mentioning me on Twitter asking me if I was on the train involved in the accident. While I am not hurt or anything … Continue reading Seoul Adventure: Seoul Subway Train Collision and the Resulting Inconvenience to get to Super Junior Restaurants
Blogging from Seoul. Yes, again. XD I consider myself to be pretty well travelled and I generally am pretty good with packing my luggage at the last possible minute or for the really last minute trips that I tend to make. However, contrary to my usually habits and practice, this trip to Seoul is something that I have actually planned for ages and booked more than … Continue reading [Travel Rant] Packing My MacBook Pro and Forgetting the Charger

The name Cheonggyecheon (청계천) probably doesn’t really ring a bell but I’m pretty sure that you know where/what it is when you see pictures of it. 🙂 It is the stream smack in the middle of the bustling Seoul. I actually walk along a portion of Cheonggyecheon (청계천) at least once every time I am in Seoul. I really like how once you head down to walk … Continue reading Seoul Adventure: Cheonggyecheon
