Just like that, we finished eating, checked in, and headed home. Back at the B&B, the male host was on duty, and we chatted in the living room for a while. We talked about the popular variety show in Korea, and thought of the non-summit meeting. So I told the male host that it was a program where a group of foreigners living in Korea discussed cultures from all over the world, and asked him if he wanted to watch it.

The host said Yunluo didn't watch it, but Yunluo knew. So he turned on the TV for Yunluo and tuned it to a non-leadership program. He just happened to see the Dahua country's performance. Haha~ To sum up the theme of this day, Daidai sent a report from the front.

I got up with the sound of the drizzling rain. I was very happy eating instant noodles in the hall outside, and kept urging Yunluo and An Chuyu to wash up and go out to eat instant noodles. After washing up and going out, I found out that the accommodation provided breakfast, milk, oatmeal, bread, fried eggs, etc., anthracene, self-service ~~ Of course, for the lazy guests.

They also offer Korean cup noodles. The small cup noodles tasted really good. Daidai ate two cups in one go, haha~ After breakfast, it was almost 12 o'clock when we returned to the room and packed our luggage. Because the flight was at 18:45 in the afternoon, we had to reserve three hours to handle various matters at the airport and one hour to take the airport bus. So Yunluo and An Chuyu had to take the airport bus at about 15:00.

There were only 3 hours left. So Yunluo and Lily decided to go to Dongdaemun nearby. After walking around Doota, they arrived at Migliore. They found that it was the door to a new world. The price of clothes was around 20,000 won, and of course there were higher prices. There were many styles and you could choose from them.

At this time, it basically depends on personal preference and vision. The environment is very ordinary, just like a trade market, with stalls one by one, and you can bargain. Compared with the Myeongdong Ewha University Boulevard, the price here is really super cost-effective. You can even see the same items you saw in those places before.

Anyway, I wandered around inside again, and then returned to the B&B to continue packing my suitcase. The basic situation was as shown in the right picture. I checked out of the hotel. I just returned the key to the owner. I dragged my suitcase and found fried chicken in the alley where I came out. Oh, I'll buy one for lunch~ I thought I was a little short on time, so I asked the clerk to pack it up.

I ordered crispy fried chicken, 8500 won per serving. It was very filling, very fragrant, and not greasy. It was the best fried chicken I've ever had. When you go to Korea, you must try fried chicken. They also gave me a box of sweet and sour radish, which was crispy and perfect with the fried chicken. Incheon Airport is really big...

After getting off the plane, you have to take the subway inside the airport to exit the station. The airport is full of Big Bang's "Welcome to Korea" posters. Korea time is one hour earlier than China time, so by the time everyone got on the bus, it was already dark. On the way, the leader Xiao Li said that the tour guide Sister Jinfen was a very good person.

Sure enough. At first glance, she looked a bit like Sister Yaya... and her Chinese was very good and her tone was very gentle. On the way to Incheon, Director Jin started to introduce Korea from one to ten, but just when he got to six, he arrived at the hotel. The first night in Incheon and the last night in Seoul were upgraded to 5-flower accommodation, and the accommodation in Jeju Island in between was 4-flower.

In the car, Director Jin gave Yunluo and An Chuyu a heads-up. He said that most hotels in Korea were built in the 1980s, so a 5-star hotel is equivalent to a 4-star hotel in China. Yunluo was actually very satisfied because the room was not as old or dirty as Director Jin said. On the contrary, it felt very good. Of course, Yunluo was not picky about small hotels.

It is indeed easy to satisfy. Moreover. The hotel in Incheon where we stayed on the first night was a "sea view room", although in fact, we could only see the sea. After putting down the luggage, washing up, and resting, at 11 o'clock, Yunluo and An Chuyu and his group were unwilling to sleep, so they sneaked out of the hotel in groups to take a walk.

The streets were full of Korean flags, and there were almost no pedestrians on the brightly lit streets. There was also a cool peninsula climate that was different from the stuffy and humid air in Chengdu. Everything seemed so relaxing and comfortable. Although they ate a lot on the plane, Yunluo and An Chuyu were still unwilling to walk around and look for food on the deserted streets.

Yunluo and An Chuyu didn't find the convenience store that the front desk said was 5 minutes away. Was it because Yunluo and An Chuyu were so willful that they just walked around? When they arrived at a store, they couldn't figure out the prices, and they couldn't understand the Korean language either. They hesitated at the door for a long time... Finally, they found that the store had closed at 11 o'clock and was cleaning up the kitchen...

Then they were inexplicably transferred to Huaguo City. They bought a bunch of snacks at a small shop, and finally, without knowing any Korean, they timidly went into a store. The boss was an A-lister, who was watching the Korean version of Dad, drinking and eating with his friends, and then warmly welcomed Yunluo and An Chuyu.

He also asked Yunluo and An Chuyu where they were from. Yunluo and An Chuyu said Chengdu, and then his expression and actions told Yunluo and An Chuyu: Then you must be very good at eating spicy food... I had no idea what to order, and Yunluo and An Chuyu had not yet adapted to the value of the Korean won against the RMB... Then they ordered seafood and pork stew, stir-fried rice cakes, and beef bone soup.

After the dishes were served, I found that they had ordered too much. Then I began to realize that the people here were the same as those in Japan. They greeted and thanked everyone when they came in, paid the bill, and left. Their tone was very gentle... It was completely different from the arrogant and rude people I had been told about before. Boss Agassi also came to chat with Yunluo and An Chuyu for a while, but they couldn't communicate.

Although I didn't know what he said, I immediately realized that it was very humorous. When they paid the bill, the boss calculated it to 32,000, and then asked Yunluo and An Chuyu whether they wanted to pay in RMB or Korean won. After comparing the two, Yunluo and An Chuyu finally chose Korean won because the exchange rate used by Agassi was 140!

It turns out that I saved 60 yuan by using Korean won instead of RMB! I didn't get back until 1 o'clock, and then went to bed exhausted. After all, it was not a free trip, and I had to get up early tomorrow to set off together, so I couldn't hold back other group members.

We set off at 7:30. Before coming, the weather forecast said it would rain all the time, but it turned out to be sunny for a few days in Korea. Director Jin said that because Yunluo and An Chuyu were both benefactors, as soon as Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived in Seoul, heavy rain fell all the way to Jeju Island (and later, as soon as Yunluo and An Chuyu arrived in Jeju Island, it was sunny again).

First, we went to have breakfast. On the way, Director Jin continued to chat with Yunluo and An Chuyu, talking about Liu Yifei and Song Seung-heon's latest relationship, and Tang Wei's marriage to Korea. Director Jin asked Yunluo and An Chuyu if they liked Tang Wei, and Yunluo raised her hand... Director Jin said that Korean women all like Tang Wei, but men don't like her... huh?

Don't men like it? The first meal was simple, at a food stall. There were four people at a table, with seaweed soup, egg bread and various side dishes. Of course, kimchi accompanied us all the way. Although Director Jin said that the kimchi of each restaurant tasted different because they were all made at home, Yun Luo almost vomited...

After breakfast, we started to rush to the center of Seoul. Director Kim said that there would be a lot of traffic on the road, but in fact the bus was running all the way. However, it ran a little slower in the middle - so this is what traffic jams are like. If Agassi, who drives the bus, went to Chengdu, he would probably go crazy? After crossing the Han River, the first stop was Peace Square.

There are hibiscus flowers blooming near the square. Director Kim said that this is the national flower of South Korea because it has strong vitality. From the Peace Square, you can see the mountain behind. Director Kim said that is the dragon vein of South Korea because the mountain looks like a dragon head. North Korea sent people to sneak up and bomb it before - (⊙o⊙)... In the middle of the square is a phoenix sculpture. It is a symbol of South Korea's status.

Walk a short distance to the right from Peace Square and follow the old city wall of Gyeongbokgung Palace to Sinmumun Gate. This is the back door of Gyeongbokgung Palace. Then Director Jin said that the house with a green roof opposite is the Blue House, where President Park Geun-hye works. Gyeongbokgung Palace is much bigger than Yunluo thought! After all, it is the old palace.

This place was not listed as a World Heritage Site. Guide Jin said that it was because of the war. Most of the palaces were burned down, and many of the current ones were rebuilt in the style of ancient times. So it was not successfully listed as a World Heritage Site. It is much larger than the Shenyang Imperial Palace, and this Korean-style architectural structure looks very beautiful in the sun. Then Guide Jin explained the stories of kings and queens along the way.

Unfortunately, I forgot it after listening to it once... I only remember the part about Queen Myeongseong, because Director Kim said that it was very tragic when Queen Myeongseong and the entire harem were assassinated by the Japanese. I have seen that scene in the movie. It is indeed very tragic. Then, regarding the Chinese characters on the plaques in various places, Director Kim said that Korean was invented by King Sejong, the fourth king of the Joseon Dynasty.

Before that, the Korean peninsula used ancient Chinese characters. In Korea today, cultural relics and some trademarks still use ancient Chinese characters to show a sense of history. Halfway through Gyeongbokgung Palace, we went out through the side door and arrived at the National Museum. Director Jin took Yunluo and An Chuyu to visit the Folk Customs Museum, which included the daily life, teaching, weddings, sacrifices, medical treatment, shaman dance, and driving...

Then Yunluo and An Chuyu were given half an hour to visit the remaining two museums. After visiting the National Museum, we went to Gyeongbokgung Palace again, and then visited the Kangning Palace where the queen lived, and the Geunjeong Palace where the court was held. It feels that Korea in the past was really deeply influenced by the culture of the Han area. When we came out of Gwanghwamun, there were many soldiers in ancient costumes standing guard.

After visiting Gyeongbokgung Palace, it was lunch time. We had a buffet at a restaurant and ate a lot of kimchi... After lunch, we went to Namsan Hanok. The bus passed through the center of Seoul. It felt that Seoul was not as prosperous as the first-tier cities in China, but it was not bad and was very clean, under the background of this peninsula climate.

The sunny blue sky and not many pedestrians gave it a very clean feeling. We passed by Seoul Plaza, a very small square where a stage was being built. Director Kim said that the 15th was the 70th anniversary of the Republic of Korea. No wonder there were national flags and lanterns hanging everywhere along the way. The Seoul Tower can be seen from afar on the hillside of Namsan Hanok, and this place was originally the residence of several wealthy families.

The houses were all built in an antique style. While leading Yunluo and An Chuyu on a tour, Director Jin talked about Korea's Changsun culture. To be honest, it was not easy for the Confucian tradition to be passed down from China to Korea and to be passed down so well by them. However, the walls of these mansions were so low that it felt like people could talk through the walls while standing.

After leaving Namsan Hanok, everyone went to buy the banana milk and "male" barley tea that Director Kim mentioned, saying that they are the favorite drinks of Koreans. Banana milk must be in the yellow can that looks like a landmine. I actually drank it last night. As for barley tea... Director Kim kept saying that Koreans have a light taste, so it was actually a light barley tea.

No wonder they don't use up a bottle of oil in a year, and even grilled meat is fried in water... Next, we headed to Seoul Tower. When we got off the bus, we could have a bird's eye view of Seoul. When we reached the top of Namsan Mountain, the highest point in Seoul, we could see all kinds of locked walls, lots of locks... You need to buy a ticket to climb Seoul Tower. Director Jin did not recommend Yunluo and An Chuyu to go up.

Because standing next to the lock wall, you can have a bird's eye view of the whole Seoul. Yunluo hadn't watched many Korean dramas before, so she didn't know how popular the lock wall was... After visiting the Seoul Tower, Director Jin arranged for Yunluo and An Chuyu to go to Gimpo Airport because they had to rush to Jeju Island today. On the way, they went to the kimchi garden to learn how to make kimchi.

Actually, it's called learning how to make kimchi, but it's to promote kimchi, seaweed and kelp, but it doesn't force people to buy. And the saleslady was very attentive when introducing kimchi and teaching people how to make kimchi. Because in fact, the price in Korea is very expensive, about 3-5 times that in China, so cabbage is also very expensive.

There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6, 9, and bar!

The kimchi shopping guide Yunluo and An Chuyu made put all the kimchi away and said they would be sent to the orphanage after fermentation. There were also free Korean clothes and background walls on the first floor for taking photos, but I don’t know how many tourists have worn those Korean clothes, especially the hats, which couldn’t be more tattered. At Gimpo Airport, we took off at 6 o’clock and arrived in Jeju Island an hour later.

The clouds were very thick on the way, and we reached the sea after 40 minutes. The small islands on the sea were particularly beautiful when viewed through the cabin window. It was dark when we left the airport of Jeju Island. When we flew over Jeju City before, the lights were brilliant, not inferior to Seoul at all... Yunluo always thought that Jeju Island would be a very lonely place, at most a small city.

I didn't expect it to be so prosperous. I can only blame myself for the fact that my impression of Jeju Island is still stuck in the status of a place of exile in Dae Jang Geum. Director Kim said that Jeju Island is the Hawaii of Korea, so there are many Koreans who go to the island to play. When I came out of the airport, I saw the stone statue of the Earth God. In the vegetation of the island, it was reflected by the red and green lights. That feeling...

It was like being in the world of Spirited Away. Then Director Kim said that today was the last day of the Korean solar term, and we should eat ginseng chicken, so the meal I had been looking forward to happened. I drank some ginseng wine, and then found a very small piece of ginseng in the chicken's stomach. Director Kim said that the best Korean ginseng is the 6-year-old Taiji ginseng, but that is too expensive.

This can only be one-year-old ginseng. But no matter whether it is one-year-old or several years old, it is definitely Korean ginseng. The hotel in Jeju Island is a little off-the-beaten-path. But the accommodation conditions are still very good. After a good rest, Yunluo and An Chuyu reluctantly got out of the hotel, but there was really nothing to see around.

A day in Jeju Island. You can eat unlimited meat for breakfast at the hotel. The key is that it is a bit like twice-cooked pork, although it probably doesn't have much oil, and it still has a Korean-style salty and sweet taste. The first stop is the Teddy Bear Museum. It's about an hour's drive from the hotel. During the journey, we passed by the Chinese area, which is just a place name and has nothing to do with China...

Director Jin said that if you buy out the land in Korea, it will belong to you. Jeju Island is visa-free and is the only place that allows immigration (other places don't seem to accept immigration). Many Chinese people go to Jeju Island to buy land and houses. Yunluo wondered, given the inertia of Chinese people, will they slowly buy up the entire Jeju Island one day and finally make it the land where Yunluo and An first met...

The Teddy Bear Museum is divided into three halls. In addition to teddy bears, there are also Lee Min Ho's little lions. Anyway, they are all very cute... However, the teddy bears here are too expensive. The cheapest keychain with a finger-sized one costs RMB 7 or 80... A normal-sized one costs RMB 4,500... After leaving the Teddy Bear Museum, we headed to the Folk Village.

It is said that the scenes of Dae Jang Geum's exile were filmed in the Folk Village. The guide who received Yunluo and An Chuyu was a woman who married from Yanji. She started with the door, because Jeju Island has three mores and three nos. More means more stones, more winds, and more women, and no means no beggars, no thieves, no big doors, and usually there are only three pieces of wood at the door.

If all three poles are set up, it means the owner is going on a long journey; if two poles are set up, it means the owner is working far away and will be back soon; if one pole is set up, it means the owner is going out temporarily and will be back soon. Then Jeju Island, as one of the new seven wonders of nature in the world, was formed entirely by volcanic eruptions, so the underground is all volcanic rock, and groundwater cannot be stored, making it difficult for islanders to drink water.

Then she explained that because Jeju Island used to be the Tamra Kingdom, an independent country, its customs and language are different from those of South Korea on the peninsula, and the Koreans on the peninsula cannot understand the island language. Then she taught Yunluo and An Chuyu to speak the Jeju Island dialect, which is "Bali" for people and "Wangbali" for men...

Why does it sound so awkward... She went on to say that because there are few men on the island, the ratio of men to women used to be about 2:8, so men here are like kings, they can have multiple wives, they can beat their wives, and all the money-making and farm work are done by women... There is a custom of eating horse meat on the island, and usually men eat it first, followed by children and elders.

In the end, women can only eat horse bones... The fate of women on the island is really sad. If they don't fight back or say anything, they can only be carried out through a side door when they die. In addition, because of male power, the female divers were born. Female divers are women who go to the sea to collect seafood to support their families. Women start practicing diving from birth, and when they are 80 years old, they still have to dive to the bottom of the sea to collect seafood in winter...

The aunts and sisters in the group sighed: Fortunately, Yunluo and Anchuyu were born in Sichuan, so they don't have to dive, and they are surrounded by henpecked people... Then they visited the pigpen... Yes, the pigpen. Because the black pigs on Jeju Island are very famous, and they also have a less elegant name - dung pigs. Because there are few supplies on the island. (To be continued...)
