Visiting SPAO at Myeongdong

SEOUL DAY 1. This shop caught my attention right away. Good quality with affordable price that can’t be found elsewhere (maybe there is but I don’t know).

SPAO is a global clothing brand shop which collaborates with SM Entertainment on its marketing. Since its launch, only the SM artists have been modeling for this brand.

It offers various items from casual wear to men’s suits, women’s suits, children’s clothing, underwear, sportswear, and accessories co-produced with top-notch designer, Chang Kwang Hyo. SPAO is the Korean version of UNIQLO. SPAO offers very basic and simple fashion items based on the Korean fashion trend. The Myeongdong branch building has 5 floors.
2015 models are EXO and AOA (first group model who aren’t from SM Entertainment).

24-23 Chungmuro 1(il)-ga, Jung-gu, Seoul, South Korea

Seoul Insider Tip: Shopping at Unbranded Stores at Myeongdong

This store @Myeongdong is awesome. Most items are sold for 10,000 won and the quality is ok. Will find more local unbranded store like this ^^

Found Gong Cha at Incheon Airport

Hana dul set! Let’s drink Gong Cha first. Man, suddenly regret staying here for a week, when I can actually explore san francisco longer. Made a mistake when booking ticket, I said 4 days lay over, but she booked 6 days instead. Lol. Hoping bumping into Jae Suk, Kwang Soo, Jihyo, etc… Lol. They often shoot at airport, right? #seoul #stranded

My Luck with Hotwire

God works in mysterious way. I was browsing for hostels & budget hotels and keep on skipping this one because they always rate it as one of the best trendy hotels (read: hipster) in Portland. The normal price is $500/ night.
Then, I spent like 2 nights for researching some affordable hotels under $200 a night (something that Diana can’t, hihi). After round and round, I booked 2 nights at a decent boutique hotel and decided to ‘gamble’ my booking with hotwire.com. Guess which hotel I got after so many indecisive thinking? Jupiter hotel!

Another hipster hotel that I will stay in (and crazy too), beside Mama Shelter!! Can’t wait.

Google maps are getting better! I just realized that it’s now enable is to push direction offline from our laptop browser to our mobile. I don’t know if it’s because my phone is made by Google or if it works with any smartphones. Also, if you’re looking for direction, it will give the option to print and includes the map neatly like this. I can save it into pdf.
