Every year during my trip, I wish to see cherry blossom even though, I am not a flower person. Seeing Cherry Blossom is like, happiness overflow. The beauty in the pinkish flowers that surprised me every trip. Last year we were too early for them, we only managed to see a few trees, and they were pretty difficult to capture.

This year, they are early for us. As I never been to Songpa Naru Park officially, except that, I went Lotte World in 2011, I’m a little excited to see Seokchon Lake this time round. We were pretty unsure and the outcome of the cherry blossom at Songpa Naru Park but keeping our finger cross, and this definitely surprised us

The moment we stepped in, and that’s was what we seen. The excitement we had and keep snapping non-stop :p

As we continued to walk around the lake, more surprises

#the family staying around the lake

#its so beautiful

That’s 1 big round of seokchon lake that we walked Its so pretty that we didn’t realised that its such a big round too

Songpa Naru Park
Subway: Jamsil Station Exit 2

On 8th April, Shinhwa’s Minwoo uploaded videos and photos of himself catching the cherry blossom festival at Songpa Naru Park in his Instagram, it seems like the cherry blossom gets even prettier now, so what are you waiting for?  And if you like SHINHWA like I do, and wish to visit places that they visited before, read here!

I didn’t even managed to plan for my 2 trips last year, until this year. Because my friends wasn’t kpop fans, I must make sure its a worth-while bakery before bringing them over. I researched more about the bakery and realise that, it was pretty well-known and its even mentioned in CNN Travel article as one of the best french bakery in Seoul. I guessed it will be a great place to chill and have a lovely chat among us

Le Alaska that looks very much like a bakery you can easily find in france. The exterior is so pretty that you can’t help to take more photos.

# Banana Chocolate Tart, they doesn’t taste impressively but pretty good

#THIS IS FREAKING GOOD! The pastry is so crunchy and every single bite make you speechless. There’s only 1 left, and glad we took this! It’s really yummy with some filling that taste similar to Ferrero Rocher. Can I have it now?

My friend told me that, this is one of their best seller in the outlet. But, it doesn’t quite suit my taste. Jolene loves it though

I don’t drink Americano, so I picked a Green Grapes Juice I have been coughing non-stop, I think juices will help more than latte :/

Caffe Latte, that they really love it. Le Alaska is really famous for their coffee and their pastry, so make sure you get something ‘right’

Ended a photo with my friends for 12 years! Thanks for being a great travel companions, without complains, and full of praises!
Did you know, we actually visited Le Alaska again? That’s probably how nice the place is

르알래스카 Le Alaska
Address: 서울특별시 강남구 신사동 550-22
Subway: Sinsa Station Exit 8
Direction: Walked Straight to Garosu-gil street and go all the way to almost end of the street where you will find Forever 21 on your right, turn right at F21, and turn right again at the cross junction. You will found Le Alaska on your left shortly  It takes about a good 15 minutes if you didn’t get distracted to all the shoppings along the way hehehehehe! :p 

Its gonna be the most awesome concert I ever attend. I love the fun and the joy they gave to us, despite its just a short 3 hours. They worked hard enough to give us their very best. We worked hard enough to earn the little bit to give them the maximum support.

The orange sea is ever, forever.

I also want to thank my 2 best travel companion ever. because of you two, it marked my most awesome trip ever. Thanks for taking care of my crazy moment

I didn’t mean to keep singing that few songs haha :/

Still can’t remember anything from Shinbang on Pungmul Market? I have done a screen cap for you to get some memory back all the way to EP15 (it’s already into EP53!)

We had found the place, and managed to eat the Tadpole noodle too. So, joined me right here and you will soon get to know more about it!

You can take ITX to NamChuncheon towards Gyeongchun direction (Alternative to save money, you can just take the normal line to NamChuncheon which is much slower since there’s more stops in between). ITX is available from Wangsimni (if you are at Green Line), Cheongnyangni (Dark Blue Line), Sangbong (Line 7)…. ^^  It is quite a long journey, we bought some snacks from Lotte Mart the night before for this long long day hehe.

#Exit 1, and walk straight all the way (the direction is pretty simple!)

#walking under the Subway Track….

#in a short while, maybe a good 8mins walk, you reached!

#풍물시장

#the exact signage that ShinBang cameraman captured haha! (why did I sound excited over a signage lol)

There’s about 140 interesting stores in Pungmul Market. Basically, this local market sell everything and anything right beside each stall. You can see, someone selling fishes right beside someone who is selling pot hehe!!. In a way, I thought this is very very interesting. I enjoyed visiting market because is like, something what tourist usually won’t add into their itinerary. But its something local and surprisingly interesting too. I must really thanks to Shinbang that make us explore new places… You can do your grocery shopping here like, we actually bought dinner, fruits and biscuits back. And if you love the fashion hehe, you might even get some ‘ahjuma pant’ too hehehe. It’s actually very comfortable. The seller even told us, your mom will love it. haha  

Something important to take note —- Pungmul Market only opens on the 2s and 7s. Which means only on 2/7/12/17/22/27 of each month, of cos, other than this date, some stalls still open but is quite pointless to visit because is almost empty :p

#5000w of shirt at market, seems really cheap right haha!

#this remind me of Oppayam! hehe, if you watched Cheer up Mr Kim, you probably know why hehe

#this actually remind me of the thingy that Junjin used to hit on Eric on Shinbang Sistar ep haha

The Highlight of my Pungmul Market Trip. The Stall that Shinhwa had their 올챙이 국수! 

This dish is popular here (according to Shinbang haha!) So I thought we shld give it a try hehe. 올챙이 국수/ Tadpole Noodle/ 蝌蚪麵條 – They called it tadpole noodle because of the shape of the noodle. But its actually made of dried corn flour!

#we had pig skin too – we called this Collagen! For pretty skin, eat collagen!

#the legendary tadpole noodle. hehe!

# sorry for blur photo, but it happened too fast lol. e-mu actually put some soup in it later, just like how Shinhwa ate too! hehe.

E-mu was really nice, sharing with us that Eric was in punishment that why he worn skirt haha. And pointed to us that the stall (i have photo after this hehe), he tried the heel on hahahahaa!!! She also shared with the rest of her customers that we get to know here because of Shinhwa Broadcast. haha. She is also very pretty and cute too! And not forgetting, she give us free drink haha!

#e-mu with Cin….

#carol with e-mu ^^

#how can I forget a photo right? that’s me with e-mu hehe! ^^

#and this is the stall where Hyesung wanted to get one shoe for Eric. haha! (Next to e-mu stall!)

#look out for Pillar P50. You will soon find yourself eating in the stall haha

If you had extra time, do go on some market trip! And this could be one of it too! hehe

2012 Perfect Man + Last First Kiss (Unplugged version)

2006 M’s Girl Friend. Last First Kiss

그때는 몰랐지 작고 귀엽기만 하던 니가
훌적 커버린 모습으로 내 앞에 다시 나타날 줄
새하얀 웃음과 바람에 날리는 긴머리가 정말 두근두근 날 설레게 하지
I know 난 너에게 빠졌단 걸

환한 그 미소로 새롭게 다가와 날깨워주는 너
반갑게 하는 너 상상하고 있어 사랑이 시작되길
I’m so will love with you 아직 넌 모를테지만
you will always be my boo
지금 이 순간 내게 안긴 너에게 함께 하자고 솔직히 말하고 싶어
지금 너도 나와 똑같은 맘이길

담배만 물던 내 입술이 멋있다면서
이리저리 쳐다보는 너의 모습이 귀여워 니 뺨을 살짝 어루만져
어느새 빨개진 얼굴을 내 어깨에 기대면 나 어릴때부터
좋아했다고 i know 나 먼저 하고 싶던 말
환한 그 미소로 새롭게 다가와 날 깨워주는 너

소중히 안으며 속삭이고 있어 사랑해도 되겠니(oh~)
I’m so will love with you 이젠 난 너와 둘이서
you will always be my boo
지금 이순간 내게 안긴 너에게
사랑한다고 영원히 말하고 싶어
행복한 시간들 그런 순간이잖니
baby (ah~)기억나 언젠가 니가 어릴적 내게 하곤 했던말
이담에 크면 너 너의 그 첫 입맞춤은 나였으면 했어
now my last,first kiss 널위해 준비해둔걸 you will always be my boo
함께 한 순간 내게 안긴 너만을 사랑하니까
너에게 약속해 줄께 행복한 시간들
이런 순간이 우리 영원히 영원히 함께 하기를
내가 살 동안 마지막 첫 입맞춤은 오로지 너란걸
you are the only one for me

I’m so will love with you 영원히 우리 둘이서
I want last first kiss with you

everyone say “M-STYLE”

#very mature and gentleman looking, yet still crazy and young at heart.

Can’t help it, but, I have successfully converted to SHINHWA CJ!

Many years ago, I still remembered how my partner-in-crime shared with me albums and MV of Shinhwa when I first shared with her, I love the song Perfect Man. I can’t imagine this happened more than 10 years ago!!! I was a KPOP fan in short, I love their drama and especially OST… But to be honest, I get to know Shinhwa after knowing the copyright issue of Energy (TW boyband). I remembered how excited I was to watch Junjin’s Forbidden Love with Kim Tae Hee… Because it was a member from Shinhwa….!!! Then, get excited over Andy with Solbi in We Got Married, though my focus was on HyunJoong, yet Andy the sweetest groom ever melt many hearts haha! (but my favourite ep was on the Shinhwa 10th Anniversary Concert… where all the members were gathered!!!)

And, with Yyann’s help, I get to watch Shinhwa The Return Concert in Singapore! I was totally thankful and happy, that I get to see the cutest Minwoo ever. I remembered I was already in deep deep crazy over Shinhwa Broadcast! I love them, they are so natural, so funny, so different. I sensed the sincerity from them! I love their concert, and I must said, I really enjoyed alot despite they might not have the most wonderful stage, but the sincerity and thankfulness, and not forgetting appreciative towards their fans… Loyal fans been with them for the last 14 years, and to be exact, with a great 4 years apart while they are serving the nation.

兵變 wasn’t for SHCJ (Shinhwa Changjo!). I am proud to be one too! And, will continue to be one. And, my biased have always stayed the same – MINWOO.

You probably can’t believe this, but because of them, I really feel I sleep with a happy heart everyday. They are my motivation and happy pill. I think I felt I am really a fan girl after watching SHBC. And, I felt happy to be a fan of a group that shows sincerity! Though most of my friends probably don’t understand how I felt, just like I love attending HJ’s stuff and KPOP stuff. But it is the same theory whereby friends went on drinking and clubbing to be happy. While, I watched variety show and attending their concert even though they standing way far from me – to be happy too.

I don’t care how people thinks now, though I admit, I did lessen my tweets and fb posting on KPOP stuff. But that wasn’t me at all. So, I will be back again I will be back to the Sihui who love Kpop and everything about Korea. Anyway, I still love SS501 especially HyunJoong, he is still the ultimate lah….

Wilber, you are still the first love
(though, the very first idol I love is Won Bin….!)
