"An-Neo-Ha-Sae-Yeo!"

This was one of the Korean greetings I've learnt for the past six days in Korea, which means Hello or 'Ni Hao'.
Yes, I'm back from Korea. And my body is trying to adjust back to its normal temperature.
The temperature in Korea is freezing cold. Sooooo cold till my hands went numb. And it's peeling very badly now due to the dryness. Not forgetting my poor face and nose. I'm feeling very itchy all over!!! I Hope it will recover soon.
Took many many pictures while in Korea. TWO cameras for that past six days which add up to a total of prolly 300+ to 400 pics.

So, on the last day of Sitex show, I managed to sell six lappies within two hours.
I could have sold more on that very last day but sadly, I got to leave early to do some last minute packing.
I think I only sold like 15 sets of laptops in this show. That's very little compared to the very first time I worked for Lenovo. Oh wells, at least I can see some moo lahs coming in now.

Left for airport at around 7pm. After checking in our luggage and etc, we headed over to Burger King at Terminal 1.
My step Dad, Mum, Bro and step sis sent us off.

The FIRST holiday (with the family) after sooooooooooooo long. Aunty Iris and Alison joined us too.

We took Asiana Airlines. Don't ask me what airline is that because I've not heard about it before until that day when I left for Korea.
But I must say, Asiana Airlines is superb! Every seat has its own TV, remote control, etc. And I had a chance to watch those movies that I've not watched before like Mama Mia, White Christmas, Beverly Hills ChiHuaHua and some other short films. If I'm not wrong, Asiana Airlines is a member of Star Alliance.
It took us about 5 hours to reach Incheon International Airport. When we reached the Airport, it was about 6+ going 7 in the morning.
Went for breakfast at MacDonalds before meeting up with the tour group at 745am!

My Aunt and Uncle whom I've been living with for the past TWENTY TWO years of my life.

My very cute Grandfather

Our first destination was MBC Filming Studio. The filming site of the Korean drama serial "Da Chang Jin (Dae Jang Geum)." It showcases the traditional provinces in the studio with magnificent sceneries and landscape.
When we got down the bus, I was practically shivering! The weather was really COLD! NO JOKE! Though there were sun, it was still very very VERY EXTREMELY cold. I wore like 3 layers inside + my winter jacket and it's STILL not enough. It was SUPER cold to the power of 10000000000.

Look at how my uncle and cheryl cover themselves. HAHAHAH!

HAHAHA!

MBC Filming Studio

After visiting the studio, we proceed over to ChunCheon to take a boat ride to Nami Island, the filming site of the popular Korean drama serial, "Winter Sonata"

Nami Island

At night, we went over to explore Abai Village, the filming site of "Autumn in my heart." My FAVOURITE and prolly the ONLY Korean drama serial I watched!!! How can I not pose for a pic?? lols.

I know, I looked SUPER funny

Day 2 Lunch and Dinner

The standard condiments in EVERY meal. Can you believe it? Koreans MUST have these condiments in EVERY meal. Especially Kimchi! I'm so sick of tau gay now. And I still think kimchi taste weird.

Yeah, that pretty much sums up Day 1 and 2 of my Korea trip.
Day 3 to 6 will be posted up another day. :)

It's TWO weeks to my sister's BIG day and till now, I've not gotten my white gown for the church service yet.
I'm excited about the wedding yet feeling a sense of sadness inside because, we have been living together since young and now that she has found herself a great husband, it's time for her to shift out and start her own family. The house will be so DIFFERENT without her. No more "Sophiaaaaa....Come here or Sophiaaaaaaa.....the shoe match or not, etc"
I think I will tear on her big day. Of cos, it's tears of JOY! =)

Town with E and F tomorrow. We have loads to catch up my girls.
