Hello everybody, wow we're already in day 7 of my travelling blog of my Korea trip! 😱 Well, even though it was quite a rushing and hectic trip where we had to board a total of 3 flights - to Seoul, to Jeju and to Busan (I have not include the flight back to Singapore 😂), I still really enjoyed myself in Korea, where the weather was very cooling and I got to see a lot of places that I've always wanted to visit! 😁
As much as I did not really like checking in and checking out of hotels where we only stayed for 1 night, with exceptional of the hotel that we stayed in Jeju for 2 nights and not forgetting the hotel in Seoul that I'll mention later in this blog post, where we will be staying for the rest of the trip in Korea, I have definitely gain a lot of insights and knowledge of both the culture and history of Korea, and the places I've visited were such an eye-opener to me, and that what I love about travelling - you gain something valuable from there. 😊
Anyways, I've published day 1-6 of my trip to Korea, enjoy enjoy hehe 🙈
Well, because I edit my blog posts in chronological order, so day 8 and 9 will be edited right after I've finished day 7, right right? 😂 Soo.....
Anyways, day 7 blog post will be places that we visited in Seoul because we have officially reached Seoul. YAY!! 🙌 I can't wait to bring you on this journey in Korea. day 7 leggo!! 💪

But I've definitely gained a lot of knowledge about Ginseng, for instance how ginseng is formed, the different types of ginseng that are grown in Korea and also the benefits of eating it.
