Traveling to Korea was a difference experience to me because while I listened to some K-Pop and watched some variety shows, I'm not entirely familiar with their culture. I can't read or speak their language, and I was never really a fan of their cuisine. I really like Japan's culture, but I never had the same passion for Korea. An ignorant person would probably think they're similar, but they're worlds apart. And that difference is what scares me. I'm not prepared for Korea, their culture, or their people. After visiting Korea, I learned to appreciate the country a little more. I decided to write this third part because I have a lot of thoughts about the country that I didn't think were suitable for my post about my trip. Some of these are just common information, but there's just so much I want to say. --- A WOMAN'S STATUS There's no doubt that it's a man's world in Korea, and women aren't really treated equally

DAY 4 We left Jeju and flew to Seoul, which is colder than all of the places we visited. We had bibimbap for lunch, something I never tried. It was delicious. The first location we went was Nami Island, a self-governing country, It was very known for the Korean drama, Winter Sonata. I didn't watch the drama, but I know the island is filled with beautiful Maple and Ginkgo trees. This is the reason why me and mom decided to visit Korea during autumn.

I believe you can spend a whole day on the island, you can even stay in the resorts here. But of course, we didn't have that luxury. We took a boat back to the main island and our tour guide took us to visit an aunty and her fruit stall. My mom and I bought a peach, which is not something we get to see or eat every day. We had dak-galbi chicken for di

When me and my mom were thinking about traveling somewhere, Korea wasn't exactly our first choice. We wanted to travel to Hokkaido, but it was recently hit by an earthquake. My mom was also interested in traveling to Europe, but I didn't really want to spend so much money. But when we were looking around at the MATTA fair, we asked about trips to Korea. After discussing with a few travel agents, we've decided that's where we'll go. I've always preferred traveling without following a tour, but this time we're going with one. I guess I was lazy to do my own research, and unlike Japan, I understand only a little about their country and culture. Having a bus taking us everywhere sounded great too. --- DAY 1 We were leaving our house to the airport when we got the news that our flight was delayed. I remember playing with my friends Overcook 2 for a bit before heading out again. It was close to midnight. We departed from KLIA2 to Gimhae airport in Bu
