So today was our second day in Seoul and we decided to go shopping! When we went to the metro this Korean guy came to us and we started to talk about Finland and Finnish bubble gum Jenkki, but after a while he changed the topic to Jesus, God and repention, which was quite interesting :D But he was still a nice guy 😊

We have been using metro because it is easy, fast and convenient. Yesterday we bought these rechargeable T-Money cards, which can be used for public transportation (subway and bus) and in some convenience stores.

We went to Asia's largest underground shopping mall COEX. It was fun that there were a lot of big posters about this Finnish Game Clash of Clans from Supercell around the mall. The first one was in front of the entrance, from which we entered.

The mall was full of shops, cafes and restaurants. We went to eat to this Sariwon Bulgogi restaurant, were we had thin beef which was fried on a stove in front of us and bipimbap. The meat was so delicious! It was also my graduation present to Tiina who graduated from university 😊

After we had shopped till our hands and legs were killing us, we went back to the guesthouse. We dropped our bags there and rested for a bit, before leaving to Yeouido Hangang Park and 63 building. The park was full of people having picnics, riding bikes and running etc.

After walking a while we went to the Sky Art museum where we could see the panoramic night view of Seoul. It was in the 63 building on the 60th floor. The scenery was really beautiful with all the lights! We really didn't look much the art there, but rather focused on the view to outside. Aftertwards we went to get some ddeokbokki (spicy rice cake) and Korean fish cake and went back to the guesthouse.

Today was also hot and sunny, even though it was supposed to rain. Now it's time to go to sleep!
