Bad Love + Korea trip: Everland! Where everyone is happy forever!

I have one month minus two days before I leave for college in Melbourne and never come back..at least, not until end of the year. Aisshhh... I'm going to miss Asam Laksa and Char Kuey Teow. Recently, I've been going out quite abit. Thankfully, I have Astro max so I can record my Korean Drama on KBS.

Ok, bare with me for a little while alright because I'm going to talk just a little about this new K-Drama I'm currently watching. The DVD haven't come out yet so I have no choice but to wait every week for the episodes to air. No, this drama does not have RAIN in it but to make up for it, there are two eye-candies starring in this drama which by the way is called 'Bad Love'(못된 사랑).

The super delicious, drool-worthy, make-the-girls-go-gaga Kwon Sang Woo is in it along with charismatic, uber-cool, i'll-look-rich-even-if-i'm-wearing-a-plastic-bag Kim Sung-Soo(who btw, I think looks like Justin my godbrother). I forgot the lead actresses name....typical. But the dramas really good and in the first episode, you get to see sexy Sang-Woo in a steamy elevator kissing scene. Oh no, there's no way I'm going to miss an episode of this drama!






Sang-Woo, Sang Woo.. My, aren't you just Gorgeous!


Here's the trailer for the drama. Watch it, seriously. I personally love it! Mainly cuz theres Kwon Sang-Woo but seriously, if there is no RAIN and I say it's good...oh, it's good alright.







Okie dokie, I think it's time to continue my adventures in Korea. After coming down from the ski resort, we headed straight for a themepark called EverLand. It's basically something like Disneyland only there isn't Mickey Mouse and his friends but other animal-based mascots like squirrels and bunnies. We took our tour group photo here and I even got a picture with Santa Claus himself! Actually, I was secretly wishing Rain will be there but eh.. I'll take whatever I can get.






Our first stop was to this safari zoo thingy. We ride a bus inside where you can see all the animals roaming freely about. Some of the animals are trained wherelse some aren't so we weren't allowed to get down from the bus. Since it was the cold season, there weren't many animals roaming about, only the lions, tigers and bears.




This is a cross-breed between a lion and a tiger. It's apparently called a Liger. I'm serious! I didn't make this shit up! I swear!



Peek-a-boo!

After that, we went sledding at the Alpine Village. The escalator up the hill was so friggin' long and I was so tired of waiting so I just walked up there but it took a hefty amount of energy and determination. I swear it was climbing Mount. Kinabalu! Ok, maybe I overexagerrated but it was long and it only took about 30 seconds to sled down from the stupid hill! Issshhh!....


If you look closely, the popcorn vendor with the deer hat is posing for me.


Christine bought this really cute looking ball-ball food which is actually ice cream.


Colours of the rainbow on Chrissy's tongue.

There was a parade going on so we decided to go and watch it. What can I say... it was very...colourful. Yes, it was very, very colourful. It was nice and all but I prefered the parades in Disneyland. The decorations of the floats were very pretty though.



Mrs. Clause waving at the little children.

Santa posing for my camera.



Prince Charming. Though...he doesn't look very charming to me.


The ice fairies!! At least, that's what i call them.


That is one colourful looking contraption!



Me freezing my ass off but still enjoying the parade.

After the parade, as we were walking we saw this really beautiful white place. As we got nearer, we saw that it was like a white, winter wonderland! It's really very pretty and you know me.. I love pretty things so I immediately rushed over there.








We had lunch at a chinese restaraunt after that. I finally got to try Ja-jang-myeon(black paste noodles) and it was delicious! After that, we eased our stomachs with a ride on the merry-go-round before hitting the rollercoasters!



There was also this place that resembled the 'A Small World' ride in Disneyland. There were mechanical dolls representing different types of countries dancing and swaying robotically. I couldn't help wondering what if I get stuck in this place after the ride closes. It'll be so freaky with all those dolls... Eeeee! See if you can guess the countries in the pictures.










I'm like travelling the world in 15 minutes!







Finally, I was out and it was time for a restroom stop. After that, I bought a cinnamon stick to munch on but I didn't take a picture of it as I was too engrossed in devouring it.





There was this sorta quirky looking, cutesy village with cobble stone streets and houses with multicoloured roofs. It's really cute! I want to live in one of those houses! It doesn't have freaky dolls in them...

The hills at back are fake. Can you tell?




Cotton candy lady smiling for my camera. I really like the people working here because they're always willing to pose for me.

It was almost time to leave as our next stop was Walker Hill's casino and then shopping at Dongdaemun market. So we spent out remaining fifteen minutes in wherelse but...the gift shop!
