After breakfast, I met up with Dave at Yongsan, which hosts a huge electronics store. Around the area we came across some sort of gaming event, with tents for games such as League of Legends. Managed to score a picture with the lovely cosplayers, but I get the feeling their working day must suck, what with the need to stand around and pose all day long.
After lunch I headed to the main palace in Insadong, but didn't manage to catch any of the final day of the royal culture festival. I did pickup a traditional hanbok (clothing) for my 7 year old neice though. Just need to find one for my nephew and myself!
Dinnertime rolled around and into the wine I went. Found some aussie crap at the local convenience store, and shared it with some hostel goers. Dinner itself was with Carter, the hostel manager and his girlfriend. They've been together 1yr and 18 days now. We had a good catchup, and I probably had a little too much soju, given how easily my terrible Korean language skills were flowing.
Some more wine back at the hostel, making new friends, and then suddenly I woke up and wondered what on earth I ended up doing last night. Nothing untoward, mind you. Maybe just too much wine (if there is such a thing).
Today is much livelier than yesterday on the streets of Seoul, and here comes my coffee...
