Trip to Korea: Day 6

April 21 Thurs.

Today started out with home made lunch from my mom. She made Kal Gooksu, which is hot soup with noodles. Delicious. Next i headed over to Ap Gu Jung Do in Gangnam.

My trip to ap gu jung do cost $8. As soon as you arrive there is a few blocks called rodeo.. lol.. LA ripoff. Its a bunch of expensive stores tied closely together. The first thing that caught my eyes were the sheer number of cafe bene which is the starbucks equivalent here. I decided to sit down near the front to do some people watching. The dudes here are all pretty broke in the face but they are also very tall. My height at 5"11 is average here. The girls here are definitely better looking than the ones I've seen elsewhere but that's not much of a compliment since other places were in the 3/10 range. Here there are more of 5/10 and the very occasional 8/10. That's about it. Maybe I'm just here at the wrong time. I'm currently sitting here at 5pm local time.

Maybe all the hot girls come out later? Ill sit here and wait a little more. I should have brought a book or earphones with me. Unfortunately I can't take any pictures because its just embarrassing.

Its been about an hour and a half now and I moved locations. I checked out the galleria which is a mall with all brand names like prada, lv, and cartier. There are a bunch of middle aged women here spending their husbands hard earned money. Oh almost forgot earlier I saw a 10/10 girl meet her bf at caffe bene. I think she was an escort... just got that vibe. But she was very pretty.





I think I walked a few miles already but haven't seen any celebrities. I think today is just not the right day. I'm just about to give up. Aimlessly searching is getting me nowhere. Seoul.. or Korea rather is just too big. Most of all, roaming around by myself is getting a bit boring. It would have been 10x better if i came here with a friend. I did find Kim Tae Hee.. well.. sorta.



On a side note I did see a Lamborghini diablo on the street. Must be one of those crazy rich kids. He looked around 25 as I couldn't see through the tint clearly. As soon as the sun sets it will be time to move again.. not sure where to go. Gangnam is a rather large city.. rodeo drive was pretty nice. Definitely the place with the prettiest girls I've seen so far but there's gotta be somewhere else. All the reviews I've read online told me to stay away from itaewon cuz its a sleazy foreigners district so I don't plan on going there.

I ended the night by getting a foot massage. All that walking needed to be relieved. My feet thanked me. Then i had chicken on a stick for $2. It was really good. The fried corn dog and this chicken have been the tastiest treats since I've been here.
