Want to change currency?

So you changed currency back in your homeland 

and realise you don't have enough?

Worry not!

You can easily change your currency at 

myeongdong OR woori bank!

As I'm a singaporean so naturally I 

know where to change for better rates

For SGD of course. HAH.

1. WOORI BANK

Safest place to change your money.  *^^*

also, you can easily find woori bank as well.

I dont recommend the others like hana or keb or kb because

their rates aren't that good you see....

For Banks, please note that they only operates from 9am till 4pm!

After operating hours, you can only exchange 

at foreign currency exchange shops~

2. Myeongdong!!

well since its a tourist spot, you can easily 

change foreign currency here.

but I would recommend you to compare the 

prices around....

uh.. I know one place that is better than woori bank but may be hard to find...

So you exit from myeongdong exit 6 and 

walk towards your left, you walk until there is a 

cross section and you turn left.. walk on you 

will see mango, spao and then uniqlo.. 

walk further down you will see a cross section

(On your left there will be a spectacle shop)

Turn left and you will spot a very old currency exchange shop..

:D rates are 5won lesser than forex from what I checked last time...

*subject to change I dont take any responsibility*

**usally operates from 10am till 10pm!

So yeapppp!!! ^^ Sometimes changing money in 

korea may have a better rate than those in 

your country.. so up for you to decide.

Of course you have to change some even 

if you decide to change in korea

since u need to take transport first!

Cafe hopping? Go to POEM 카페! ^^

HI~!

So Mireen is back for food paradise <3 

But.. I need to diet yet I just couldn't resist myself for 

dessert after a meal with my friends 

ㅠㅠ

here comes..... OREO BINGSU <3

I personally think this is similar to mcflurry oreo 

but its something different to it... hees

honey grapefruit <3 ! kyaaa

I didn't tried this but this seemed to be something popular in korea right now :D

a mixture of sweetness and sourness

they actually have 2 storeys! 

here's a peek of their menu!

although it is a little pricey, all coffee

comes with a free cake!!

like....

WOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

here's another picture to show their decoration~

they actually sell chocolate fondue. kyyyaaaa!

temptations ㅠㅠ

hagen daz is actually selling something similar too..

but.

BUT.

by twice of this price..

WHAT?!

then I should as well get this huh? it looks the same... 

So here's a little map of it here, but

hmm.. I think the 명동역 should be a bit more far away... 

okay so you exit from exit 6 myeong dong subway mrt station, 

you will see UNIQLO. 

so you walk further down, 

you will see a cross section,

and you turn to your left side towards SPAO.

if you see SPAO. there should be a way towards your right

so you turn in, and you will see VIP restaurant and some small eateries 

and your keychain shopping and stuffs. 

NOW, as you walk down the road, POEM should be somewhere 

near to the end mm..

somewhere near 설빙!

*sorry i forgot what's the shop on the first level >.<

so the shop should look like this on the 2nd level

CHEERS <3

http://www.holeechow.co.kr/

the interior~

setting!

wanton soup~~

monster eating hot and sour soup (this may be filling because there's flour in the soup)

sweet sour pork and yang chou fried rice <3 omg miss this so much!

szechuan fry seafood? there's a lot of variety for the seafood.. squid prawn etc..

our christmas celebration~

 

by the way they actually serve free chinese tea, service was okay!

For Singaporeans who want to taste hometown food,

I recommend it here! ^^

They actually have 8 main branch including one express branch~

you can visit the website for more information regarding the location

and the food they provide!

 

CHOWCHOWCHOW~

I'm going back Singapore soon for vacation! ^^ chowchow~

 

 

tourist SPOT~ myeongdong!

I guess you guys would have heard of myeongdong whenever

you talk to your friends about seoul (maybe not.. >.<)

 

Anyway, today I am going to tell you guys about myeongdong

before i go for my winter sleep.. :D

 

MYEONGDONG

 

the most tourist gathered attraction

 

as the old saying, if you go china and you didn't go to the great wall of china,

you have not been there!

 

same for MYEONGDONG :D

 

there are several hot spot nearby for example..

N Seoul Tower

 

 

and

 

Myeongdong Cathedral!

 

 

so here's a small map for you guys! ^^

 

a few shops that I would like to recommend..

 

Firstly,

 

M plaza!

 

please note that M plaza has went through renovations so

the interior has been changed but not Zara and Forever 21!

Forever 21 has become much BIGGER!

*hoorays*

and with the restaurants still available at 5th floor ( school food and some donburi store)

 

next is....

 

SPAO!

 

I believe SM fans should know that SPAO is related to SM entertainment.

Also, on the 4th floor, there is a Everysing store for you SM fans craze!

Not only that, I personally think that the prices for SPAO clothes are relatively affordable

so, hop down to Myeong dong now!

 

Btw, there is all the mid-range brand available at Myeongdong as well,

not mentioning the usual cosmetic brand, there is laneige store, banila co and etc!

for clothes, there is Giordano, Teenie weenie, Gdragon's store BSX, H&M, Uniqlo, and loads more!

 

Be there and you know what's waiting for ya! ^^

 

SHOPPING TIME WHEEEEEEEE~

taking a rest for a moment..

sorry guys! busy with school work so I won't be
promoting korea for the current.. ㅠㅠ 쏘리!
