180307~120407; Friends.

I Spent only few days with my friend who had the nice years in the high school altogether.
But I think I was very happy with them and also I hope they were very happy with me even though we met each other very short moment.


KimJiYeon (KIMJI); She is the person who I spent most of the time inside and outside of the school when I was a hight school student.
We used to skip many many classes to do some activities which we can't be offered from the school.
At that time we were blamed by many teachers, but we missed that time very much.

I think we met 3 times. She was busy, coz she had so many classes; she is doing art, to be more precise, she is doing fairy tale illustraion.

I think she hasn't changed very much, so I was very pleased to see her with the pure mind
and pure face and great memories with me.

I hope everything of all will be very well. And also hope her dream will come true in the future.



YuJiIn; She is also the same member who got involved the skipping the classes with me and KimJi.
She just came back from Canada, and we met twice!
We used to go to Dunkin and Starbucks when we were the students, but we didn't go there this time at all.

Instead, we went to O'sulloc and KyungbokPalace, and also Kyobo book store and had an ice cream in Baskin.
She did plastic surgery on her eyes, but I didn't yell at her.
But She is very pretty enough, and we had such a nice time altogether as well.

LeeEunKyung(Aerial); We were in the same classroom when we were the 2nd grade in the highschool. She was the leader of our class in the 2nd semester.
How can I describe her?!! She is very very unique, coz she stops growing to be an adult. :)

And also she likes Aerial, the Litter Mermaid, too much. So she told me a funny story, related to the Aerial.
When she was in the Marketing Lecture, the professor in the unit asked her; what kind of thing
makes you consider to do action the most? with a full sigh, and she replied; when I saw the Aerial stuff in the store, I have to consider very very much whether I do buy or not.

I laughed and laughed, and there is no change to her.
She is the perosn to scream to call my name on the street without any shame!
I hope she will grow a bit more mentally to be considerate others, but hope her inner beauty
will not be changed at all!

ParkBeautiful; Her names is the sentence. Normally many Koreans have 3 words syllables, but

she had 4 syllables, in addtion the name is the full sentence.

It was very impressive when I met her at first.

And she has such a splendid beautiful figure, but her mind is even more beautiful than the figure. means angel!

Anyway we spent 2 years in the same classroom in the high school and talked many many things together either.

This time we also did the same thing and the day we met was very shiny and great.

So the weather made us much more happier.

031807~120407; O'sulloc

O'sulloc is the Green Tea cafe which was founded
by the Korean Cosmetic Company; TaepyeongYang(=means Pacific Ocean).

There are only 5 branches in Korea; 4 in Seoul, 1 in the ski in Vivaldi.

Even though there are much fewer branches in Korea compared to Coffee shop like; Starbucks, Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf, Passgucci, and also A some Two Place etc, Many Koreans and also

foreigne visitors likely to go there to have breaks with drinking Tradiotional Tea, or Fusion style drinking like Green Latte, Green Cappucino etc with such a nice piece of cake.

I enjoyed drinking Green Latte and also Camomile Green Tea as well.

Everything in the cafe is made of Green Tea, so those are not too sweet but it tastes very good.

Also the thing which was very impressive was every staff in the shop was fully trained

when they serve and explain about the shop and the taste of each different teas and cakes.

I missed taking photos of the staff in unfortunate, but their uniform and hair style are very neat and tidy with Green Pants and White Blouse.

If you have the chance to go over Korea I would reccommand to go there to enjoy your time

with the above stuff.

13042007; Easter Break: SEOUL!

my lovely family; sister, mom, dad and me

This time I went over Korea to see my mom, dad and sister and had a such a wonderful time
in there, especially with my mom.
Even though I had an small operation with my teeth and legs, everything was very fine to me.

This is my first page to introduce my hometown so far.
There will be more photos in the upper page, I guess.


my home; apartment infront of it.

the first floor, as you see above, is my house, we've never moved out since I was 6.
So we have loved this house very much. However, if you go over to look at korean housings,
you can see a lot of of skyscraper style buildings, those are all apartments.
It looks very ugly, i.e. looks very crammed and too much over modernised in terms of living.
But my place is for the only resident area. Even if you can see a lot of high-storeys' apartments
everywhere, my hometown is rather calmer than the southern part of Seoul; the capital city of Korea.


Chunggye-river, Kyungbok-palace, Myungdong; the centre of Seoul

I used to go to a high school which is in the centre of Seoul.
So I have had so much experiences of the modernised city life which people think
very 'sophisticated'.. whatever..

But 2 years ago, the mayor of Seoul, Myung-bak, Lee, thought Seoul is suffocate to breath, this is because there are so many huge buildings everywhere, and those do block the circulation of the fresh air. Thus, he decided to re-decorate Seoul to be more natural with super modenised atmosphere. So he suggested this agenda as his first manifesto, then he was elected.
As you see the first picture, we have very beautiful river which flows the centre of Seoul.
It's very nice, so many couples, children, students, housewives, and also many bizmen walk
around in the lunch break and also at night.

Also there is Kyungbok-palace which is the last empire's resident place of Korea.
It's very nice place if you look at it in detail, due to such a wonderful decoration on the ceilings and the vaults, and also columns either.

If you go further into the palace, you can find the national folk meseum, the museum was re-furnished and re-organised in last year. So it was very new.

Anyway, if you get into the museum, you can learn many korean folk remedies and cultures
from the statues and the objects and also the multimedia tools.
It was very clean and very well organised so you will be very pleased if you look at it further
when you visit my country.

Shoe-fix; Yong san
You can see the huge the US military troops in here, however, very ironically,
here is the one of the most well traditionally preserved in Seoul.

So you can find this kind of old place, but which gives you the smile; coz the shoe-fixer
was very funny and his ability was very delight.
It was very nice, and I hope this kind of place will be last very very long long.

Kosney; Myungdong, Seoul

Here is Kosney in Myungdong, you can find many cute and pretty things in here; accessories, clothes, fancies etc. designed for Females.

O'sulloc; Myungdong, Seoul

Unfortunately, we have uncountable starbucks in the small city in Seoul, even worse,

there is the biggest coffee bean and tea leaf branch in Myungdong as well.

Coffee Bean is the Amerian company, but we have the biggest branch in my country.

Very irony!

So I think some foreign travellers who don't know about my country very much would think

COffee is the tradional drink for many koreans.

Anyway, so a korean company; Tae-pyeong-yang built O'sullock which provides greentea, and green tea-latte, cakes and so many cute and pretty but also such a splendid taste stuff to compete with Starbucks in Korea.

As a result, many people tend to go to there to enjoy drinking green tea stuff.

Coz starbucks coffees are too fatty and sweety, and also more expensice than many other countries. So people likes to go there to keep their shapes and also to save the money either.

To be continued......
