Seoul travel! well I wasn't supposed to go to Seoul that early but as long as I know my best friend, Min Young whom I've known for past 10years was going to have test to be an accountant and he has been studying for past 3years for the test, I bought bus ticket for Seoul.
In Korean culture, we give chocolate to someone who's going to have test in oder to cheer him or she up and that was my mission for Seoul travel.
Thanks for some movies that I downloaded the other night, five hours wasn't that longer.
Due to MinYoung had to study for daily time and so he didn't have any time to meet me, I made some plan to do till I met him. First , I went to GamNam as soon as I got to Seoul to find some information that I needed for my friend's business after that SeochoDong was where I had a coffee with Dohun who's in Seoul for school. It has been 3years that we didn't meet, but he was the same as before, looking, personality and behavior.
Around 6, I took a subway to meet another friend whom I know through facebook and we went LodeO Stress for dinner with her friend. God! she drank so fast and a lot. she definitely drinks more than I do. around 10 we got back home. it was good night.
Next morning, I knew that my hometown friend was in Seoul too. so we both agreed tiny Seoul travel by walk.
It was from SinChon to Nam Mountain where the cable car is. It took about 2hours to arrive, through small park that I don't know what name is, Sung Le Moon which was burned out few weeks ago. It was bad weather but it helped us keep walking that long distance without any pain :) Mountain was beautiful and view was awesome.
I called Min Young around 5pm and we met at Sam Gyub Sal place for dinner. He looked really nervous, he was pale and didn't talk much. I understand him. 3years isn't short time to study and he sacrificed everything to be an accountant. and he was going to have the test tomorrow. If he didn't make it. it's like his all efforts for past 3years would go for nothing. He and I just ate dinner and after dinner I Gave him my chocolate. “Thanks Seo, coming to Seoul to meet him" He said. 'It was really good decision to come to Seoul' I thought. Friends means a lot to me.
wow. I must be a good person as I have many friends :) after Min Young I met Jea Hyun whom I have known since high school and he works for LG now. I bet he is the most positive person I've ever met. We had a coffee in YongSan. He has been studying English last year again. However there's nothing, different between his and my English, He said He admired my passion and it motives him to study hard. Thanks, Hyun. That's what friends are for.
