Korea 2019 - Day 6: Lotte World 롯데월드 & Itaewon 이태원

When i was young, i thought living in a cb would be the most wonderful thing. Oh how wrong i was. Now that we are out of the cb like a newborn baby and into phase 1, i hope everyone continues to adhere to safe distancing and avoid going out. After all, nobody wants to go back into the boring, smelly cb.

But guess who was not a cb on Day 6 of our trip? The weather. Neither snow nor rain today so the stars were aligned for us to visit Lotteworld on our last day in Seoul.



But first, back to Myeongdong for breakfast and some more last minute shopping as if our suitcases were not on the verge of exploding.


We saved the best for the last, as we finally patronised Myeongdong Kyoja after aiming it since day 1. Dear kalguksu and mandu, 让你们久等了.


Plump, juicy dumplings that were so satisfying, especially when paired with the spicy kimchi. They may resemble a bunch of wrinkly ballsacks, but i could have easily 干掉 1 whole basket by myself.


The noodles were smooth and quite similar to udon. However, the soup was akin to your average ban mian, lacking in character like a certain Yw.

After stuffing our tummies full, it's time to vomit it all back out by visiting a theme park. Yes yes, we know Everland is the superior park but since Rea and Jl had already been there, we went for Lotteworld instead. Bought our tickets from kkday at a slight discount of SGD$ 44 with aquarium access included.


Not sure how we teleported to Italy but who doesn't love half naked fountain statues?


Although i've never been to the real Disneyland, this place emits strong vibes of a low budget knockoff.

Instead of a talking mouse, you get a creepy raccoon who looks like he stays up all night stealing underwear.

But the worst thing of all was the throng of students in the park that day. What the fuck are you kids doing here instead of going home and studying for your o levels?

The queues were so bad that the only thrill i experienced in the outdoor park was bracing for the chilling gust of wind that gets blown onto everyone in line below. After half an hour's wait, this ride suddenly decided to close for maintenance until further notice. You good...

The rest made the right choice by going for the smaller version as the wait was more manageable. The only way i can feel involved is to photoshop my face onto some buibui Korean kid.

Queue for 45 mins, over in 45 seconds. Summed up perfectly by Jl's disappointed “完了ah?", a line that Reagan may be familiar with in bed.

KPOP SONG OF THE DAY TIME!! 
This song brings me back to the good ol' Family Outing days. 岁月不饶人.


The massive crowds of si ginnas were demoralising so we attempted to cheer ourselves up with some bhc chicken.


But even bhc somehow managed to disappoint as their branch inside the theme park only serves nuggets and popcorn chicken instead of their glorious fried chicken. Lotte世界操你妈.


We retreated to the indoor theme park and the situation didn't fare any better. Machiam SG last day before all the bubble tea shops were ordered to close.


At least we managed to get onto the pirate ship. Time to cast scream of pain onto these unsuspecting kids.

Haven't had this lan pa gao wei feeling since the thrilling roller coasters in Fuji Q highland. Unfortunately, we had to leave the theme park shortly after to meet up with Hyeri again because she's like our TW zeh zeh Joan no other friend so keep find us.


On the way to the aquarium, we found your mom's dildo.


Some protest banners, most likely towards battery waste pollution due to the heavy usage from your mom's dildo.


Lotte is everywhere in Korea. I'm surprised they have yet to open any malls here but perhaps the first steps of their invasion has begun with the replacement of DFS with Lotte Duty Free.

Look at Jl all excited to explore the wonders of the sea with her bff.


Aquariums have always been kinda underwhelming for me because the only good fish is sliced and served with wasabi. Let's hope this one surprises us.


The flesh eating piranhas and the remains of a little kid who fell into the tank.. RIP.

Someone must have received this flashy robot fish from a christmas gift exchange and took the chance to get rid of it in this aquarium. Definitely more useless than my decathlon scuba diving mask from last christmas.


Suddenly got Mayan sun god i don't even understand what this has to do with fishes but ok 拜拜一下 and move on.


Always enjoyed walking through these tunnels where you get to upskirt the fishes and admire their private parts.

Me at a zhi char stall: Auntie 1 HK style steamed fish. Can give bigger fish?
Zhi char auntie: 就是这只

Omo aren't these little worms just the cutest things? If you think so too, then you'll find my penis adorable as well ; ;

Suddenly saw sloth mei here omg!! Where is bitch dajie??


Such a cool experience seeing a beluga whale for the first time. Did you know that they can swim backwards? Yes it's fucking slow and they will get eaten by predators but the point is 它们可以.

Tsk this jia bye openly flirting with someone else in front of Reagan. I guess together too long already is like that one.

MSE stage crew always on hand to provide the best lighting.


Eh hello Kl ask u to take group photo with your selfie stick arms how come got your picture in my gallery?


No one else left to help us 打灯 so this was the best we could do. Famished after seeing so many fishes, it was time to head to Itaewon for dinner.

Since we had yet to have a good army stew, we chose Bada Sikdang, a well known army stew restoran recommended by my food blogger rival danielfooddiary.


Although it certainly looked more legit with the sliced cheese, it was still an underwhelming dish overall. I can make better tasting soup using the ramyeon seasoning satchel rather than this bland and thin broth. We came to the conclusion that eatify_sg > danielfooddiary.


We also ordered some 排骨王 which were mediocre as well. My house downstairs zi char got sell so come Korea eat same thing for last dinner in Seoul quite funny.

But at least we had the company to make up for it. Btw they are indeed selling hotdogs for SGD$ 13. What.


From sea lions to turning lesbo, Jl had many lovers that day. But good times tend to fly by and she was returned to Reagan as we bade farewell to Hyeri one last time.


But the night was not yet over for us. Right in the midst of the supposedly happening(?) area of Itaewon but we don't see no classes here. Netflix lie! Hate Netflix!!


It was probably quiet as it was a Wednesday, and since we weren't into partying anyway, we hopped into an Aussie pizza joint to make up for our disappointing dinner.


By now we were sick of Korean cuisine after almost a week in Seoul so the pizza was a welcome change for our tastebuds. Really enormous slices too.

But no day is complete without hunting for snacks at the convenience stores. It's much like using a book of retraining in custom hero clash, you never know if you'll find a hidden gem or get stuck with burden trash.


Still pretty stuffed from the pizza, but i bought a spam onigiri and milk just to feel included in the prestigious MSE supper club.

We caught Yc getting his revenge on Kl from being buttfucked a few days earlier. A few days away from their gfs and these guys are already resorting to such desperate measures..


Speaking of desperate, Reagan's jacket got ripped but he managed to patch it up... with Jl's sanitary pad. What's more, it's waterproof so even rain or snow can't penetrate it and turn his nippuro harduro. Genius. So with fond memories, a thousand cosmetics and a kotex sponsored jacket, we were ready to leave Seoul and head up north for the next leg of our Korean adventure. Are you ready for some skiing?

- End of Day 6 -
