Sis you can try Vestin Residence Myeongdong (Villa 2 which is newly built). The rooms are small but the shower and toilet are located inside the room. They have shampoo and soap, towels, hair dryer, refrigerator, and a TV in the rooms. They also have complimentary breakfast from 6-9 am pero just bread, cereal, fruits and milk lang It's cheap compared to other guesthouses in Myeongdong.

Sis, Wala ng available rooms sa agoda sa Vestin. I'm thinking of Seoul Tower Ville, pero nagsend palang ako ng inquiry kung may available room. Any more suggestion?

Hi sis, ganyan din nangyari sakin, invalid tin number daw. Pero binigay ko lang yung tamang tin, ayun pinabalik ako tapos approved naman.

^naku mahina pa naman sa lamig yung husband ko. haha sige thanks!

may isa pa pala akong concern, kasi yung dating company ng husband ko sarado na, I'm not sure kung legit ba tong binigay samin na itr.. I have US visa naman, maapprove kaya kami? kinakabahan ako kasi maraming mga hindi okay sa dati niang company so we're not sure kung nagreremit sila sa BIR..

Nakapagreserve na kami sa ZAZA backpackers. Excited na ako. Ang tagal mag-October 3.

[janesjane]

guys advice naman. Confused ako kung ano ilalagay ko occupation ni husband kung engineer or online stock market investor. Problem kasi namin yung HR/ADMIN nila hindi natatawagan/sumasagot. if online stock market investor naman, wala mailalagay na company name, pero makakapagproduce naman kami ng stock certificates. Or [textspeak!] rin kaya isponsor ko sya? para lahat ng docs ni husband yung akin ang nakalagay. any advice? salamat

Hi sis, ganyan din nangyari sakin, invalid tin number daw. Pero binigay ko lang yung tamang tin, ayun pinabalik ako tapos approved naman.

Gosh I should've read this thread before I applied. Kahapon na praning ako (kutob lang) at vinerify ko through BIR TIN Verification ... yun na nga, mali yung TIN ng current ITR ko.   Kaya dinig-up ko yung old employment files ko, nahanap ko yung old TIN ko, huhuhu mali lang ng isang number. Grabe talaga, andaming cases na ganyan. 

So I'm going to submit my old employment files ko (BIR Form 2305) along with an explanation letter, sana okay naman. Kinakabahan na ako huhuhu

[Quisha]

we'll be in korea on nov15-19. we'll stay at namsan guesthouse3. bought my winter clothes sa mga ukay ukay malapit sa bahay namin. got 2 bubble jackets with hood for only 150 each..

anyone knows kung saan pwede makabili ng winter clothes for kids? wala kasi ako makita sa mga ukay ukay. wala rin sa greenhills

also, Madali lang ba mag bus/train dun? may nabasa kasi ako na di daw accurate yung google map dun. may alam ba kayong apps or guide na pwedeng gamitin sa pag commute? sa google map kasi, naka lagay usually kung anong bus # and line yung sasakyan pag pupunta sa isang lugar.

Hi sis, I didn't present anything naman, the day na sinabing mali daw yung tin number ko, I called BIR right away and nakuha ko yung tamang tin, then sinulat ko lang yung correct tin number ko sa isang papel na binigay nung mga guard dun, tapos binigyan ulit ako ng bagong releasing date. So far, okay naman yung result. Approved naman ako.

Hi Quisha!

We're in Korea about that same time last year (Nov 6-10, 2013)... The temp was super cold (-1C to 5C). I bought my kids' winter gears from Uniqlo, Zara and Debenhams. Wala nga kasing ibang mabibilhan. Pricey, so sabi ko pupunta kami ulit this year around winter para masulit yung pagbili ko...

Thanks, sis. Sana ganun din yung result ko. *fingers crossed*
