Now it's my 3rd day in South Korea and it's been great so far. Today I'm going to a big shopping district of South korea and it is Myeongdong. They sell designer brand products that include clothes, shoes, accessories, skin care products and cosmetics.

I went to meet Sandra at the Seoul Subway Station to take a subway to Myeongdong. We took the Seoul Subway Line 4 to get to Myeongdong Subway Station which took less than 4 minutes. We exited through exit 6 and started the shopping experience of South Korea. There were SO MANY stores. There were 3 large department stores (Shinsegae Department Store, Lotte Department Store and Migliore) and many other individual stores like Missha, laneige, ETude etc. We spent the whole day there. I managed to by different brands of BB cream (blemish balm- tinted moisturizer. Very popular in South Korea), some skin-care products, lots of clothes, shoes and cute accessories. We stopped at a pizza store call 'Mr Pizza' and had delicious pizzas. The store was also advertised by famous Korean pop boy band called '2PM'. We had the seafood prawn pizza and the supreme pizza. Both were good but the seafood prawn pizza was the bomb.

It was time to head back to JW Mariott Hotel, so we caught the same subway back to Seoul Subway Station. But while we were waiting for the subway, we saw a small snack store called 'Deli Manjoo' that sold little corn-shaped soft sponge cake filled with warm creamy custard. They were about $2 AUD for 9. They were so good, so worth it. When i got back to my hotel, I had a bubble bath to relax after a long day of shopping and being crowded by lots of people.
