Happenings (Week 6)

Week 6 is a very interesting week for all students in Hallym University. It is the week where there is the Hallym Festival!

Hallym Festival is a two-day school event where their students put up performances. They transformed their dance corner into a clubbing room which we saw from the outside when we were walking from our dorm to the main stage. It was really cute and a great idea. We couldn't stop giggling when we saw it.


The main stage had games for the audience during the afternoon. The games were in Korean but we didn't had to take part in all of them. The first one we saw was "True or False". The Emcee says a question and the players are to move left or right to answer. The players were given about five seconds to make their decision before time was up. It looked really fun!
The last player standing was the winner. They were giving out CGV movie tickets!

The next game we watched was "Guess that song". Players have to answer with the song's name and artist name.
It was really awesome and we were just staring at everyone with our eyes and mouth wide open.
The song wasn't even played for a full second and you get people mad screaming at the Emcee to answer the question.
There was this one song, where it was just a note. Like a piano note. "Deng". A bunch of the girls just started screaming and answering the questions. It was mad crazy. We were like "What is going on, how do they even do this?"
But it was really interesting.

During the festival, there was also an international booth where students had games from their home country. We played Korean games like put the ring into the bottle, Korean Chapteh, Pick up sticks, Tongue twisters in Korean(Kirin Kurin Kirin Kurimu? It sounds something like this), five stones!

Here are some photos!
Belle is gone. Like the shadow.

That's our buddy Hyun Min! We finally have a photo with her!

During the festival, we had the opportunity to try Chicken heart. It sounds weird but the moment we popped one into our mouths, we couldn't stop. 
One stick is enough. It has too much cholesterol. 



There after, the next day, Belle and Shi Jia went to Insadong with the other NYP mates from SBM! 

Say hello

We rented a Hanbok and entered the palace FOR FREE!
Everyone wearing a Hanbok gets to enter the palace for free! 
The hanbok we rented was at 19,000 Won for 2 hours. I know. But it's worth it for the free entrance HAHAH.

Here's a picture of us in our Hanbok! 
It's really comfy to wear.
How I wish I have an Oppa to take me away into the Korean Drama scene. 

Anyway, the palace was BEAUTIFUL. Let me enlarge it's beauty for you. 



Emperor's seat?
The mountain and Palace together is just ohmygod

After the 2 hours was up, we walked to Anguk station, which was just one station away only. 
They sold lots of souvenirs there. 
There was also this round-about shopping centre we went to. It was really cute. You could just go to the second floor and keep walking along the shops. It's designed to bring you to the next level as you walk along. Great for lazy people. 


Poop cafe!


At the cafe, we had Oreo bingsu and Chocolate ice cream.
There was poop everywhere. Fake poop.
Even the plate that came with the waffle was shaped like a toilet bowl.

The bingsu was a little too over priced for it's taste.

hmmm.
  
We came across this tea cafe-shop called Osulloc. Their packaging were so beautiful and oh my goodness.
Don't you just want to buy them for the pretty packaging? 


They have a cafe on the second floor where they served green tea drinks!





Alright, that's all we have to share for week 6.

The mid terms are coming out the next week and we are very anxious for our mid term tests that are in week 8. 
We hope everything will be well.

All the best and good luck!
