N Seoul Tower




I did all sorts of touristy things during my first trip to Seoul, and one of the places I visited was N Seoul Tower. I went there during daytime, since it is more popular at night.

There are different ways to go to N Seoul Tower. You can go there by cable car, by bus and even on foot. I chose to go by bus and walk all the way up to the top. I then took the cable car to go down, which I believe was not the best choice.


Aside from the majestic view, N Seoul Tower is popular for its colors at night, and the rows upon rows of love locks.

TIP: Bring your own padlock if you want to leave your behind. Padlocks are a bit expensive if you buy them on site.

Travelling to Seoul? A new tour service lets customers go on a Korean beauty tour with a local female friend. Following the success of its "rent an oppa" service, the people behind Oh My Oppa launched a new service, this time providing their customers with a unique experience with an "unnie." "Unnie" is a term Korean women use to call females older than them. It is similar to the Filipino "ate" or "sister" in English. The idea came to mind after customers started looking for guides they can do some beauty-related activities with. "It would be more certain that we got an idea of hiring female guide from customers who wanted to do some 'girl thing' with Korean local friend," Hyunjung Roh said via email.

I booked an "oppa" for my birthday. Here's what happened

It's been almost ten years since I fell in love with everything Korean. Fresh out of college, one of my first jobs is to teach English to Koreans. At first, I told myself that I wouldn't be too involved with the culture. I was studying for my Master's degree at that time and even when I started to fall in love with Korea, I consciously rejected the idea of shifting out of my major (Southeast Asia) to Korean studies. My love for Korea started when a student taught me how to read and write in Korean. Being a history and culture buff, I started falling in love with everything about South Korea with every letter and word I learn from my "teacher." I started listening to K-pop, and then I started watching Korean dramas. I started eating Korean food and even ~daydreamed~ of having a Korean boyfriend. One of the first things I learned about Korean culture is that they take age and titles seriously. Even an age difference of two years would put one at a higher &q
