South Korea Day 6: Mango Six (The Heirs) / Ice Museum & Trick Eye Museum, Hongdae

Assalamualaikum. 안녕!

Last night in Seoul. Esok pagi gerak to Singyeongju seawal pagi. Planned untuk lepak Mango Six tercapai; alhamdulillah. This time, tea time adalah ditaja oleh sepupu terchenta! Bukan senang dapat pau budak sekolah kan. 

Initially, aku memang mau sangat pigi Mango Six (Dosan Outlet) because of the A Gentleman's Dignity drama. My JongHyun-ssi was as one of the supporting actor. Yet we ended up at the Daechi-dong outlet instead. Due to the famous melodrama The Heirs; my cousin insisted to go to this branch. Peminat MinHyuk-ssi katanya. Layankan jak lah sebab tea time was on her.

Siapa tengok drama tu memang confirm akan cam this particular spot as many of the scenes at the cafe were filmed here. Punyalah kami gembira bila berdiri depan cafe ni. E'eh macam kenal. Ndak dapat jumpa retis, berdiri di tempat yang diorang pernah jejak pun jadilah. 

Pun famous spot juga. 

That particular spot near the pokok kelapa was where the main actors & actresses sat. In the drama, bukan kerusi meja tu yang diorang guna. When I showed this picture to my friend, she jokingly said maybe the owner took the tables & chairs used for the drama. And keep them at home. 

Kenapa perlu buat fan-signing time aku belum sampai? Sampai hati. 

Again. Ndak dapat jumpa retis, mari order the same drink yang berkali²; promoted in the drama. Sedap gila! Mango + coconut milk. And aku pun bertrip juga mau makan waffle topped with banana slices & sepenumbuk of whipped cream. Padahal baru mencekik di Insadong! Jalan di kala sejuk, perut cepat bergurindam.

Tutup mata jaklah tengok harga. Reminded myself to not convert the amount we spent. Nanti ada orang nangis darah. Mau sangat ngopi kan. Do it the local way kan, ha silalah telan kenyataan spent the way they do as well. Sob.

Direction to Mango Six Daechi-dong Outlet (The Heirs). 

Alight at Seolleung Station (선릉역) Line 2; Exit 1. 
1. Walk straight from Exit 1. Turn right after the Dunkin Donut store.
2. Take the first left.
3. Turn right after the GS25 Mart.
4. At the junction, turn left after the 7-Eleven store. Walk straight.
5. Mango Six cafe will be on the left side. 

U can also refer to Azra's blog for different direction. I got mine from a blog in Naver.

Next; Trick Eye Museum in Hongdae. Tiket adalah discounted sebab aku bawa printed voucher. Instead of 15,000₩, we only paid 12,000₩ each. Penjimatan best! Tempat yang tourist attractions memang selalu ada discount for entrance. Maka silalah rajin check website for more info pasal discount voucher. Aku selalu terjah sini. Macam² info boleh dapat. Current promotions, latest updates regarding what's happening in South Korea etc etc. Aku kadang tu sengaja web-walking sana. Melayan rindu, eh? Ok, over.

Entrance to Ice Museum is free of charge. Ni kira, beli ticket for Trick Eye Museum & akan boleh masuk tempat ni sekali. Bukan besar mana pun, kami dalam ni pun in less than 20 minutes. Yang lama tu pun sebab sibuk posing atas ais.

Di luar sejuk beku, inside this room pun sejuk...yet dia ada hati main sliding gitu. Walau pun ada kotak provided to alas the bontot, still!

Konsep Ice Museum ni ala² rumah or igloo. Siap ada kereta santa outside kunun.

The gross-ness. That poo is made from ice. Pastu cousin aku ada hati mau hidu benda alah tu. Aigo, kenapalah bingai tahap dewa kan. 

Konsep sangat. Siap ada living area. Nonton Oprah yuk!

Out from bilik serba beku, mari kita tunaikan hajat sebenar. 

Sila ignore muka over posing tu. 

Woops!

The fairy is resting. 

Remind me of Narnia!

Ambil feel ala view di Venice...bilakah bakal menjejak ke situ. 

Benda gini memang selalu amazed aku. Yes, I am easily amused. It took only tiny things to pump up my adrenaline rush. Memang kacang pis jak mau buat aku ketawa. Walau dalam mood ke laut, kening kerut macam mau melekat, muncung boleh buat gantung hanger 10 biji...ceh elaborate sangat tu Bie!

Sambil snap gambar ni, sambil verangan akan sampai Santorinni or Mykonos one day! Insha Allah, amin amin.

Towards the last arts dalam museum tu, both batteries handphone aku & cousin aku flat! Awal pagi keluar, battery masing² full lagi. Snap sana, snap sini. Haruslah kong. Bawa power bank pun macam ndak da fungsi sebab penyakitan betul aku charge semalaman but only 60% penuh. Memang lepas snap each gambar, ndak wujud sudah kejadian "tengok ngam ka ndak & kalau ndak lawa boleh snap lagi sekali". 

Kami keluar from the museum 10 minutes before its close time. Jalan kaki jak balik hostel. Ikut underground passage semata mau lari dari kesejukan. Kalau jalan secara santai, macam dekat jak hostel tu. Aman jak area tu di kala malam. 

On the way back to the hostel, kami singgah kedai runcit. Beli mushroom & telur. Also those drinks sebab aku kehabisan stok nescafe 3in1!

Sungguh comfy bilik kami malam tu. Walaupun terpaksa jalan lebih sikit dari hostel before ni. Lepas makan, kami start packing. Esok pagi, kena bangun paling awal. Kena bangun awal else tertinggal train memang ndak da ampun. Nangis darah tepi railway. 

Aku stop sini dulu...cerita esok harinya kita sambung next entry. Till then, annyeong.
