Terima kasih kepada tim TalkToMeInKorean kerana sudi menjawab pertanyaan saya untuk segmen 'How You Say This in Korean'. Ini adalah antara ayat penting yang boleh digunakan ketika korang melawat ke Korea sebab ianya berkaitan dengan makanan. Hehe. Lagi pula saya ni suka juga makan makanan yang dijual di tepi-tepi jalan di Korea. Orang putih kata, street food, gitu speakingnya. Pertanyaan saya

I like to play computer game but not a game with fantastic graphic and file size 1GB and above. My laptop is old and can not run such game. So I opt for small size games but still has nice graphic and entertaining game play. I need to compile it in list because I tend to uninstall the game after I finished playing or get bored with it. 1. Westward game series (85MB) 2. Kudos 2 (40MB) 3. Prison

I don't have the urge to write this drama review at first. But this drama is sooo good that I have to write something about it. And I fell in love with Sungjoon...'s character. Hehe. The storyline is good and also the songs. I have to write about the songs in another post. You can find this drama recaps at DramaBeans or KaedeJun. First episode started with a nice song from Peppermoon, Peu a

It's the third franchise of this drama even it is a different story line from previous dramas. Not a sequel or prequel. Same title, writer and director . The title in Korean is 로맨스가 필요해 3 or short form as 로필3. The first thing that make me wanted to watch this tvN's Mon-Tue drama is Sung-joon. He is not really my ideal type of man nor do I like him before but he looks adorable and

Variety show with family theme is one of the popular trend right now in Korea with more variety show with the same theme such as Mama Mia (KBS), Dad Where Are You Going? (MBC) and my favourite family variety show for now, The Return of Superman (KBS). If you happen to watch entertainment news section like Entertainment Weekly, they once cover about the popularity of this theme in variety show

From Namsan-gol Hanok Village, we took a green bus number 02 ride to Namsan Tower and it cost around 500 won. I'm impressed with the bus performance while going up on the hill with full passengers. Have to say that their public transport is very well maintained. About 15 minutes later, we arrived at Namsan Tower bus stop. But still you need to climb a few steep metres up before reached

Namsan-gol Hanok Village. This place is just 2 blocks from our hostel. So, we just walk about 15 minutes to get it here. No fee was charged for entering the village. We went there on Friday and there were lot of students there. Well, since I came to Korea, I always saw students here and there so I got a bit confuse about their school time. Haha. What's in there? Traditional houses,

After getting back from HongMina cafe (the exact name of the cafe is Foresta), we stopped at near Hapjeong station. If you're Bigbang/ 2NE1/ PSY/ Winners fans, you can walk to YG building from this station. I didn't go because it's so awkward just to stand and take picture from outside of the building. Instead of going to YG, we went to Seonyudo Park. We have to walk past one of the bridges

Hehehe. I'm one of happy fan. Well, as a fan, I couldn't resist to visit every filming locations. Okay, if cannot go to all the places, I should go to the most meaningful place of all, for example, their first date location. We went to Paju on our third day in Seoul. Yep, we plan to cover places that are far from Seoul, then, after that, we will walk around Seoul. From Euljiro Station (the

Girls Generation Hostel neighbourhood scenery. In Malaysia, Google just started to drive their cars to record street view, August this year. We would see street view in Malaysia soon, I guess. Last time I saw in my Twitter timeline, Google Camera installed in a boat to record Malacca River View. While waiting for Google Malaysia Street View, here, I want to show you Naver Map Street View.

On the next day, we woke up early in the morning to go to Cheongpyeong Station. Why Cheongpyeong Station? We plan to go to Petite France and Nami Island by taking Gapyeong Shuttle Bus. The hop on hop off bus stop at Cheongpyeong Station before go to Petite France. How to go to Cheongpyeong Station? From our guesthouse, we took subway from Euljiro 3-ga Line 2 to go there. We had to

Packed with people. Note: This restaurant serves pork dishes. The restaurant name is Gosami (고삼이). The main dish here is grilled fish. We order one big grilled Spanish Mackerel (KRW8,500). It is the most expensive grilled fish over there. And we ordered another dish, Spicy Squid (KRW6,500) or in Malaysia we called it Sambal Sotong. Grilled Spanish Mackerel Spicy squid. That price

Cross this road and there you see, Myeongdong is in front of you. This is another post about my trip to Seoul last October. This is the fourth post but my first day story isn't finish yet. Can you believe that? My friends and I check in around 12pm. We arrived earlier than that actually. It's just because we need to wait for some time for them to clean up our room. We unpacked our bags, ate

Hello handsome men and beautiful women. Let me continue my Seoul, South Korea trip story. Today I will introduce you to Girls Generation Hostel (GG Hostel) - we stayed here for 8 days. I will let you know why later. The hostel is located near Eullijro 3-ga subway station. Near police station too. We're talking about safety here, girls. Haha. Even though I think Seoul is pretty safe if you

We arrived at Incheon International Airport around 8:25am (Malaysia time: 7:25am). First thing that we do when we arrived is to buy T-Money card. It is essential to have it. More like TouchNGo card here. You can use it to pay for train fare, bus fare or your goods at conveniences store like 7Eleven, GS25, and CU (Previously known as Family Mart). You can buy it for KRW3,000 per card. The

Finally! It's the day! I feel very nervous on this day. The day my friends and I go to Seoul, South Korea. I plan to go to airport at 6pm because my flight is at 1 o'clock in the morning. So, don't need to rush. But really, it's my mistake. The next day is Raya Haji in Malaysia. It's public holiday here. I should expect there will not many buses or taxis that time. Silly me. I took taxi to

Yes. I really hope MBC would not stop this program. Not for my sake, but for celebrity sake. Hurm, maybe a little bit for my entertainment. Haha. Even though some K-netizens didn't like this program, calling it is not interesting and should be canceled, and the lower rating make it worse. But people, especially celebrities, cannot deny that this program sparks their popularity. Well that's why

I used to watch drama at DramaCrazy.net and when the site is gone, I don't have favourite site to watch new drama. But glad that I finish watching Nine before that. So, for few months, I watched We Got Married Global and become an avid fan of Daramji Couple (Hongki & Fujii Mina). My favourite place to hangout at that time is Hongki Mina GWGM Official Soompi Thread. Because I didn't

I just finished watching this tvN's drama - Nine: Time Travel (나인: 아홉 번의 시간여행). This drama is surprisingly great! No wonder this drama received high feedback score from more than 3000 netizen with 9.8 / 10. Using time travel theme like Queen In Hyun's Man, you can expect a lot of flashback and fast forward scenes. I guess that's why I had headache while watching episode 10. The actors did

There are few new dramas that I'm watching now. I love dramas broadcasted on Monday and Tuesday. The Queen of Office (KBS) and Gu Family Book (MBC). SPOILER ALERT! The Queen of Office or in Korean 직장의신 (jikjangishin). 직장 - workplace 의 - showing belong to what. Like 's in english. Johnny's eraser. 신 - Goddess. Something like that.

I'll go to Korea this October with my friends. So it will be only 3 of us who will go there. We have a very tight budget and some more don't know where to go but still insist doing backpacking.
