12.03.2014 - First sight to Seoul & dinner in Bupyeong

On wednesday 13th, the University of Incheon was closed because of its opening anniversary. So we took advantage of this free day to visit Seoul. The others were already in Seoul several days ago, but, for me, this was the first time that I visited the capital city of South Korea.

We went to visit the city, and our first stop was the palace of Gyeongbokgung. The palace is located in the northern Seoul, and the entrance free is 3000 won.

First we went to the palace museum, which has some interesting stuffs. Anyway, it is not a place to spend so much time.

Afterwards, we visited the palace. The palace of Gyeongbokgung is quite big, you can be walking around there for 2 hours. There are some nice places inside, like the huge gates, the ponds, etc.

In the main gate of the palace, we could see the guardians of Gyeongbokgung. The toughest guys of South Korea! hehe

Afterwards, we were just walking around, taking a look at the city.

Finally, we came back to Bupyeong to take the dinner: chicken & beer!! Scrumptious chicken with no bones, and afterwards, a typical korean ice cream. Good dinner indeed!

And that's al folks!

05.03.2014 - Chicken & Beer + Gig

It seems that small restaurants of Chiken & Beer are very popular here in South Korea. So last wednesday we could try it in the district of Bupyeong. We had to take the subway, and we spent around 30 minutes to get there. What can we do? The Songdo Campus is far from everywhere....

Bupyeong has a good nightlife, and it is the first place where I saw those big bright advertisements which are around all asian cities.

Afterwards, we took the subway again and we arrived to Sindorim. Because one of our new korean friends were gigging in the Unplugged Cafe. Actually this cafe is kind of hidden and we were lost several times by trying to find it.

We were sitting in the front row hehe. Now a short video about the gig (very bad quality sorry):
