Seoul, Here we come : Day 1 Dongdaemon Market

Anneyong Haseyo!

Day 1 at Seoul right after we land.
(if you missed the first part, click here)

Just arrived at Incheon International Airport

Freshen up, muka pun ade air lagi., hihi

While waiting for our luggage

Right after we collected luggage, we took the whole GLAM group photo at the airport. Total of 160 of glampreneurs!

The crowd

The Photographers. Tengok korean people kat belakang, pelik sangat tengok kami

The lovely couple who made our dreams come true. Mana terpikey sampai korea. but with glam, with their guidance, we arrived Korea with NO Cost at all! (oh, this is gambar skema both of them)

Tengok, gambar not so skema of them. masa ni tengah amik video. Crazzzyyy mode!!! Cute kan Hanis with her cute bump :)

Rest dulu at one of the coffee shop while waiting for our buses.
This is another young glampreneur. She is just 25 years old. started this business 2 years back. From an SPM graduate, became a beautician at one of the spa at Sungai Petani with very minimal income, now she has became the 2nd highest level in the business, earning more than RM10k per month and just recently able to qualify for Car Fund to own her own dream car. Within 2 years in business, she has traveled to 5 countries : Guangzhou, Vietnam, Paris, London and now Korea. Seronok kan? apart from doing business for income, now able to travel all around the world more than 2 countries per year and also dapat pulak kereta idaman.
i did ask her, what car she dreamt of. still undecided, but will most likely follow our mommy, a BMW. 

The gorgeous Hanis Haizi. Love her red handbag!!! drools****

Bergembira sakan.padahal beli coffee je. First time bayar in Korean Won. Confused plak calculate dlm otak. 3,000 Won equals to? hehehe

Raz makan ubat dulu. Notice that SalonPas. i believe that one also for preggy mom, Hanis :) Duduk lama2 dlm flight memang boleh sakit pinggang.

Muka je senyum sebab tengah di snap gambar, dalam hati bengang. while setting my husband's phone for roaming and data plan. mine was okay. his, kena set a few time, baru ok. but i think it was a reasonable package. Maxis Roaming with Data Plan package for 5 days in Korea was RM135. unlimited. so memang seronokla kan. anytime boleh upload pix. it's just that phone ade batery or tak je.hihihii

Our #glamjourneys start here. GLAM in Seoul with close to 200 of us. Tercengang korean people that time.

In the bus already. Total of 5 buses of glampreneurs. we are bus C2.

The Incheon International Airport

The clean environment

Our tour guide from Malaysia, Fish Tee started the tour.

Awal-awal lagi dah practise the Gwiyomi style - my TDC (The Diamond Circle) sisters. On the left is a civil engineer, bergelumang dengan terik matahari at site. on the right was a banker from Johor, now doing the business fulltime while managing 3 kiddos.

And this is our Korean Tour guide, Alice. she can speak English very well. easy to understand her. and very soft spoken. lembut je.

Leaving Incheon Airport heading to Seoul

Kalau drive sendiri ni, confirm pening.hehe

Lesung batu kan ni?

Welcome to SEOUL!!! 

The bridge

Big fan?? lol!

The toll. At this moment baru i realized that they drove on the left side. 

The happy moment. Which husband does not like when were given a free honeymoon? all in.

Amazed by the structure!

The Bullet train, i believe

and i saw this! the Trump Tower.

Again, the bridge structures at Seoul are amazing! Panjang and elak from traffic jammed

Another bridge

And another..
I was like, awww! that big? that superb?
But i think malaysians structure almost to that extend. getting there. (tetiba je jadi pengkritik jambatan la plak)

Heading towards Seoul

Body Shop tepi jalan, okay.

Rasanye baca takde beza between Yeouido dengan Yeongdeungpo..

Near Hangang Park

Approaching Itaewon Street for our breakfast

We were sort of climbing the street. penatss

Our first stop, breakfast! at The Foreign Restaurant by a muslim.

It is a buffet style. Eat all you can

Banyak choice.

Nyums!! a really heavy breakfast

Again, yours truly right after breakfast. There are lots of muslim restaurants here at Itaewon street.

Bawah muslim restaurant, atas club.hehe

Yang, look out!!
No worries here. the drivers are very sopan. they even stopped their car for us to take pix!
and look at the banner of Foreign Restaurant. The rate for buffet is 13,000 won, closed to RM45 per person. Thank God ours are all paid.

With our mommy, Hanis Haizi. Just look at the car, it stopped for us to snap pix.

The beautilicious glampreneurs - The Diamond Circle

Apekah?? lol! berdiri senget.haha

The Thai Massage also available here. motif?? haha

The K5 Kia Optima is the main car for taxi! Big and spacious and luxury type.

Yeah, arrived at the first shopping center, Doota at Dondaemon

The building looks like a government building, but it is actually a shopping center!!

Preparing for a blast shopping experience..

Jom shopping!!!

Sangat exciting to have a chance to have shopping buddies!

Tho it is called Dondaemon Market, but ir wasnt like typical pasar.hihi

Right after landing, straight to breakfast and now shopping. no time to baring2 kat hotel for a rest. Pumped up!!

The Korea Souvenir Shop was ambushed by all 160 of us!! imagine, macam kena rompak.

And a good thing was the owner knows how to speak Indonesian. makanya i represented our team to speakang indonesian, waduh. harga pasnya berapa pak?

Nak bayar pun satu hal..

They have a lovely music box, with choice of songs. but the price was like triple than in msia. ngee~

Penat dah ni. while waiting for hubby borong jersey shirts.

OMG! i love their fashion. Of course la grab a few!

The happy husband. Dapat tons of shirts and jersey.. and of course....(move to the next pix)

See! Immediately wore the jacket.

Take a break before were dragged to the children's level.. time to go craazyyy!!

And soooo cute!!! Harus lah grab a few pairs for my babies

Hasil shopping.
