First Seollal in Korea~ Gangnam, Seoul

So, my first seollal in Korea came to an end after staying 4 days in Busan. On the 5th day, we left Busan and head to Seoul and stay in Gangnam for 2 nights before flying back to Malaysia. It's my first time exploring Gangnam half day alone without him as he needs to be away for a business meeting. After lunch together at Gangnam station underground shopping centre, he left for meeting and I continue witth browsing and shopping. Manage to get sis the skincares that she asked for while waiting for my student Sung Jin finish work and meet me up. Finally met up with Sung jin for coffee and we had a long chat with his not-so-fluent English as I am still bad at having conversation in Korean lol. After buy Sung Jin dinner at the Korean-Chinese restaurant that he chose, Oppa finally finish his meeting and meet us up before we part ways. 


While walking back to our hotel, we can't resist the smell of boiling Tteokbokki and Odeng in this cold winter and end up takeaway tteokbokki, odeng and sundae back to hotel as supper. I guess I must be too tired in this trip for all the long distance travel (Seoul-Busan / Busan-Daegu-Busan / then Busan-Seoul); the next day dawn when we travel to Incheon airport via AREX, I felt so unwell and throw out everything I ate yesterday inside the train (so sorry to the train assistant who has to clean up for me...). I end up sick for a week after back to Malaysia where doctor diagnosed I am down with indigestion.
