We made it to Korea safe and sound. (My handy dandy hand-drawn map was great! =D)
We're staying at a cute little guest house called Carpe diem, and the girl that runs it is really nice. The bus ride from the airport was pretty easy too. I'm a little surprised at how easy it is to do things, so far...but there's still a lot to figure out, so we'll see.
After we dropped our stuff off at the guest house, Monique and I walked around the area we're staying in. There's a lot of shopping around, even an American Apparel which I thought was really weird. A lot of neon lights and signs, and a lot of noraebang. (We did an hour of noraebang, which costed about the same as in Tokyo, but if we find more people to go with, it'll be cheaper.)
My favorite part of the day was going to the street vendor on the corner who had a little hut set up out of her van. She was selling mandu, odeng, and ddeokboki, so we got a plate of ddeokbokki for a grand total of 2000 won, which is about 2 USD. XD Pretty crazy. And delicious. So we're definitely going back there if we get munchies at night. Then we stopped at a convenience store for a box of choco pies (we couldn't resist) and drinks. (Chilsung Cider!) Hahaha, oh Korea. This is gonna be fun!
