Seoul & Busan Trip - Day 2

Hey there assalamualaikum.

So as promised, aku sambung Day 2 in Seoul. As per my previous post Seoul Day 1, I mentioned in the itinerary that we went to Everland on 2nd day.

Before pergi Everland, make sure korang ada stamina yang tinggi, kalau boleh have a good rest, wear comfy shoes and boleh prepare sandwich ke ape ke, bawak je bekal kalau risau susah cari food dekat dalam. No such thing like no outside food whatsoever okay, kita bukan pergi Sunway Lagoon ni (oops). Since we probably gonna spend whole day inside, nak berlapar dalam tu adalah tidak kelakar ye. 

Perjalanan from our guesthouse to Everland around 2 1/2 hours. Using Naver Maps is super easy, and please follow recommended route/transportation yang apps tu bagi sebab selalunya dia bagi yang shorter walking distance. And korang boleh opt for less stairs kalau yang senang sakit lutut tu wakaka. Tapi at first we had this mindset yang taking subway everywhere is convenient. WE WERE WRONG. Taking bus is even more convenient wehhh. Logically sebab bus station is everywhere, subway maybe kena jalan jauh sikit and kalau rasa cam dah sampai entrance dia, nak sampai ke subway hub is long way to go. Some subway siap ada shopping street so boleh bayang tak underground tu happening gila and crowded. Some subway banyak stairs and no one take elevator kecuali those with wheelchair/stroller so cam takyah la bawak perangai malas nak panjat tangga eh. Malu beb.

And lagi satu aku suka pasal bus dia sebab dia punctual! And dekat every bus station ada live update bas kau sampai lagi berapa minit and it's so damn reliable. And orang Korea ni sangat baik, diorang tak duduk tau tempat orang tua/perempuan mengandung. Aku yang duduk. Terduduk. Demm. Lagi satu bas dia ada announcement next station tu station apa so korang akan alert la station mana yang korang nak turun. Tapi dekat Naver Map pun bagitau kena turun after berapa station. So dia takde randomly berhenti dekat simpang mana mana ikut sedap perut. Okay sorry gais aku terdrag pulak pasal bas. Kita sambung pasal Everland eh.

It was freaking cold I didn't even need a kiss from the wind

Tips naik bas: Masa naik tap T-money card dekat scanner. Kalau dah announce station korang next, korang tekan 'Stop' buzzer, kalau tak nanti dia tak stop (kalau takde orang dekat next station). Lepastu before turun make sure tap again T-money card dekat scanner. Kalau tak nanti kena penalty. Aku tau korang mesti cam hak elah, macam la tak pernah naik bas, ni pun nak bagitau. Cause it happened to be I didn't know. So just in case k. Dilarang bitter 💋

So dari Maru Guesthouse we jalan kaki naik bas dekat Garwoldong Board sampai Woosung Apartment lepastu tukar bus kat situ, naik bas sampai Jeondaegyo Bridge Ap. Basically kalau takut salah naik bas tanya je, 'Everland?' pastu ahjussi bas tu mesti paham. Everland station tu ramai orang turun and bas dia biasanya dua tingkat. Lepas sampai korang kena tunggu free shuttle bus, sebab entrance dia jauh ke dalam. Masa aku sampai tu awal lagi Everland pun baru bukak tapi ramai gila orang eh, and mostly Korean sebab aku pergi Saturday wakakaka kenapa eh kau pergi weekend mas? Yakinnya kamu.

Tak pergi Everland lah kalau takde gambar dekat Rose Magic Tree. Menurut mitos, pokok ini dipercayai mampu menaikkan seri background gambar anda. 

Tapi okay la, I got to see couples wearing matchy clothing being so lovey dovey like what kdrama feed you guys. Diorang memang sweet like that weh. Kdrama tu tak tipu okay. Macam aku dengan mira ni dua ketul potato rolling rolling there. Mana oppa? Tapi yang aku perhati culture diorang ni memang kalau perempuan always nak lawa je. Budak form 3 beratur depan aku tunggu ride, sepanjang tunggu turn tu dok berbedak ye gais. Muka aku masa tu adelah sikit macam mayat hidup, I just don't care anymore. Lawa lawa pun takleh beat Korean 'natural beauty' *uhuk uhuk*.

*lakonan semata-mata tapi nampak natural kan ahaks*

The excitement is real guys! But please someone bagitau ahjumma belakang tu, she should twist 90 degrees to the right for a better art.

Rides dia mostly meant for kids. For adult ada jugak and yang extreme memang tahap aku tak berani nak naik pun. Contoh extreme T-Express wooden roller coaster. Aku masa tu period pain 2nd day (can u imagine my suffering?), lepastu temperature was 2 degree celcius weh I'm dying so aku macam berperang dengan segala macam perasaan dekat Everland. Terpaksa aku relakan Mira naik sorang (or senang cite aku chicken out). Sebab T-Express tu aku tengok pun aku dah macam minor heart attack, silap haribulan aku turun jadi debu debu cinta pulak. And lagi satu ride yang aku rasa seram was Let's Twist. Kau google tengok seram tak seram. Yang ni we both skipped.

She survived the T-Express! Daebak!

Meanwhile, this girl escaped and got her cup of hot chocolate instead. She had no regrets.

Shared this Seafood Platter with ma gal for lunch at Garden Terrace (in Everland) for 16800won ~ RM60

We enjoyed some of the rides including Rolling X Train (yang ni roller coaster jugak), Hurricane, Championship Rodeo, Lily Dance dan banyak lagi. Yang animal lover jangan skip Safari World okayy. Best weh berbaloi gila lah kau bayar tiket mahal kan (refer to my previous post on cheap ticket from Klook), dalam tu ada cable car (Skycruise) and gondola chair (Skyway) sebab kan kau dah turun pergi naik ride semua dekat bawah bawah, boleh mati nak naik atas balik time keluar tu jalan kaki. We enjoyed the Skyway sebab dekat Malaysia takde wehhhh acah macam nak gi naik skiing. And for Muslim no worries, dekat situ ada surau jugak. Surau dia sebelah rumah hantu tak silap. I wonder why they put it there haha.

Actually we missed quite a lot sebab macam rushing nak balik, next time kalau pergi lagi should stay till night sebab malam macam lagi meriah ada show, parade, lampu2, fireworks and all. Boleh refer to this blog The Ultimate Everland Guide sebab aku rasa content dia so helpful. Of course sekarang aku tengah menyesal sebab tak buat Everland research before pergi. But yeah, there can always be a next time. Semoga dimurahkan rezeki pergi lagi bersama suami. Ameen please gaiss.

Before sambung bebel, here are some pictures!

Missed the ferris wheel cause I was busy sleeping? Nope, cause it was closed. Demm you have 365 days so why close on the day I visited.

Welcome to Amsterdam in Everland!

It was tulip season ke ape tah but they have it there. PWETTY! No need to go Holland camni

This girl putting our bukti WAS HERE on the sangkar like thingy

Walk this way, will ya?

No! Walk this way. The never ending argument.

Balik as usual kena tunggu the free shuttle bus to bus station, depends on what time korang balik, bas ni can be crowded kalau time peak hour orang balik. Since kitorang balik belum gelap lagi, quite okay la. Guess what's the best thing masa naik bas balik tu? A group of handsome oppa(s) was inside! Adrenalinku berkecamuk. 

We left early sebab macam dah penat sangat and we need proper food! And we were aiming for Yang Good BBQ (Muslim friendly restaurant) sebab dah dekat dengan Gangnam. So kalau korang nak cari Yang Good ni banyak je blog yang post on guide to this restaurant. Boleh refer to Yang Good Guide dia siap bagi map and how to go there. Dia macam ke dalam sikit and the road there macam sunyi. Kalau nampak yellow sign board with sheep on it maksudnya dah sampai lah tu.

Found yaaaa :)

Someone's craving for lamb - no, not me

This girl is!

Waiting patiently for my chicken on the plate to take turn on the grill slrpppppp

The food was good and the portion, mengenyangkan I would say. We took lamb and chicken BBQ set (RM120++ for 2 pax). Dia macam lepas sehari kau use up energy, kau melawan cold weather outside, it's so nice to have actual meal, BBQ some more, and warm weather ahhhhhhhhh bahagianya. And memang ramai Malaysian dalam tu. Jadi tak perlu ragu-ragu sayang. Eh.

Okay lah done bebel kot, aku rasa macam aku pergi Everland je, apahal tah post panjang sangat. Till next time, sekiah toceh.
