Day 3 - Seoul, "Dai Cheong Gam" movie set & Nami island

I'm sure most of us have watched this famous korean series 'Da Cheong Gam'. I visited the place where they filmed it. The place is a bit run down because it has been there for many years. I heard that they are going to tear down the place soon.


My handsome... hahahah


Shooshhh... I'm busy preparing meals for the king.. ;)



After that, we went to another famous place called 'Nami Island'. This island was made popular by another famous korean series 'Winter Sonata'. I haven't watched this series before though. :P

Not sure why is there a mermaid in front of the entrance of the island.

I think this is the main actor & Actress of Winter Sonata. aww.. so deeply in love eh..



The weather was freaking cold when I was there.. Shiverring most of the time but the scenery is good. Check out the pictures I took below. You can come here 4 times a year. Reason for that is because the scenery is different in every season. When I was there, it was Spring. So all the leaves are all Green. If you go few months later, the leaves will turn red. Then during autumn, everything will be brown. Not too sure how it looks like during winter. I think you'll just see branches without leaves? :)

Day 2 : Jeju-do

On the 2nd day in Jeju-do, we visited "Yongduam" or known as the Dragon Head Rock.

This rock is a Basalt formation. Why is it called the Dragon Head Rock? It is said that a dragon that lived in the Dragon King's Palace beneath the sea and in its desire to reach heaven, was turned into stone. Do you believe this legend? ;) Who knows ya... From geography point of view, this oddly shaped structure is the result of solidification of flowing lava during a volcanic eruption many years ago.

After that, we went to the cliff. It's something like the Uluwatu cliff in Bali which I went to in March. :)

In Jeju-do, you'll be able to see many yellow flowers field. Nice place to take pictures. We managed to stop by one of the fields to have some snapshots.

We went to a waterfall too. Cant remember the name of the waterfall though. Nothing spectacular about this waterfall. So many Korean students there.. Can't really have a good shot. I stayed there not more than 5 minutes. :P

Great Grandfather of Jeju

In Jeju island, you'll be able to find plenty of "Tolharubang" or the great grandfather statue. This big statue is actually a black lava rock and it is regarded as guardian deities of Jeju island.
