Korea (Thread 11)

[k_heart]

^^ Yes sis eischied, i think worth it pumunta ng Jeju Island. it's beautiful. make sure that you can go and watch the Jeju Island Women divers! It's a province so you cannot cover all the sights in just
One day. vastly different from Seoul and Nami Island.

Hi, I'm planning to visit Korea sometime in May. I'm going to Jeju first before heading to Seoul. Basically my flight itinerary is: MNL - HKG - CJU - GMP - INC - HKG - MNL. I'm wondering if anyone has tried something similar? (since I noticed most people enter Incheon or Busan to get to Seoul first, then buy a roundtrip ticket to Jeju). I'm applying for a Korean tourist visa naman. I was just wondering if they'll allow me to enter Seoul from Jeju? TIA!

sis Anjcam I need your help. Pumunta ka sa Jinhae last year diba? Now I'm considering going there on our trip pero my question is, kaya ba namin magikot dun in just 1 day or dapat at least 1 1/2 days? Baka kasi super bitin. Aabutan pa kasi namin yung tailend of the festival. TIA

hi sis, mga 3/4 day lang ako nagstay sa jinhae. including meals na din. puro lakad kasi. maliit lang naman yung festival area pero madami kang pwedeng puntahan and dahil festival madaming tao, so if may rides, mahaba pila. but whole day is enough

Hi sis, i've tried airbnb na before ok naman maayos yung nakausap namin pero jamsil area yun e... Was able to take airport bus 6001 wala naman difference for me kaysa sa regular 10k won na bus

thank u sis fornarina ask ko lang kasi 4 kami pupunta this year pero ako lang un may existing visa sa korea. un mom, sis in law, and auntie ko mga first timers. tapos wala pa sila mga work puro housewife. makakakuha ba sila ng visa if wala sila coe and ITR? specially my mom and aunt mga elders na wala sila mga ganun.. please help thanks so much

[fornarina]

Hi Sissies, pa-suggest po ano ang ok na pasalubong from Korea? My colleague will be visiting Busan for business, tinatanong nya ano gusto ko, meron na kasi akong pobling.

TIA.

@manlavs: kung sino magshshoulder ng expenses ng trip, COE and ITR niya ang isusubmit niyo. are the older women paying for their own trips?

hi sisses who are in korea right now? il be going there from 25-29 april. malamig pa ba weather? how many jackets kaya should i bring? maabutan pa kaya namin ang cherry blossoms? 

[k_heart]

Yes,malamig pa sis. At mas maraming days na maulan for this week kesa maaraw. For today, arnd 3 to 11 degrees.
may cherry blossoms pa din pero yung iba, nawawala na dahil sa ulan. i'm still in seoul (3 weeks na ko dito). Nung nasa Jeju kami last week, hindi pa masyado nagbo bloom ang cherry blossoms.
bring thick jackets, mittens, scarf, headgear and umbrella. Malamig pa talaga.

Will be @ SK too this Sept. Sa Cheusok festiv nila. Ikaw din ba sis?

[gemstonerainbow]

sis anjcam thanks for your reply. We didn't push thru to Jinhae na. We went to Yeouido park instead. Maganda din kasi maraming cherry blossom trees and sakto kami sa festival dates. Sabi ng friend ko who went there, maganda nga daw and maraming cherry blossoms, pero nauna siya samin and during the time na nagpunta siya, mejo nalalagas na nga because of the rain.

sis k_heart super lamig ba? We went there last week, pero nung friday until sunday mejo mainit na kapag tanghali. Dahil din sa kakalakad, keri na ng long sleeves. hehe Sa gabi na lang super lumalamig. Pero nung pauwi kami last monday parang umuulan na?

[k_heart]

Hi sis gemstonerainbow, andito pa rin ako sa Seoul! hehe! Nung Tuesday and Thursday,maulan kaya malamig ng sobra. As in sobrang lamig, naka full battle gear ng pang cold weather.
pero Wednesday at today, warm na at wala ng ulan kaya oks na ang hoodie lang, sa gabi na lang malamig pero colder pa rin tha Baguio weather.
today actually, hoodie lang ako, na inalis ko pa ng midday.

For accurate or almost accurate weather, Accuweather yung chinecheck ko na meron pang hourly forecast. So far, accurate hehe!
Sa Yeouido  rin kami nagpunta for the cherry blossoms pero very nice yung sa Everland plus their tulips there! 😊
