Some of you would have known that I am back even before this post as you might have seen me hosting Beast's events. It was really tiring hosting and trying to do simple translation for the boys at 4 different events. But the boys are really professional and charismatic, I have to admit I am a fan now. Haha.
A week after I came back from New York, I'm off to Seoul. This trip is for my second Korea travel book. It has been a very fruitful trip, I actually visited about 100 shops I shortlisted during my research in 7 days! Very productive isn't it? I also did quite a bit of shopping, really loved the sandals in Korea and I bought 3 pairs! If you happen to go shopping at retail boutiques in Korea , do bring more cash as most shops offer quite a decent discount when you pay in cash.
Among all the shops I visited during the trip, my favourites are a Korean BBQ shop and book cafe. Apparently So Hee from Wonder Girls frequents the BBQ shop with her dad. Here's a sneak preview - some pictures from the BBQ shop and book cafe.
This is the BBQ shop So Hee and her dad used to frequent. Lovely setting, great food at great prices!
The interior of the book cafe...
For more information and more shops Korean celebrities love, you'll have to wait for my travel book...haha. Sorry for sounding so much like a sales person Will be busy in August and September writing and I hope the book can be sent for printing in early November.

Hi Liyi!
My name is Alina and I'm actually interested in learning korean, but im not sure where i should go to take lessons.
I'm looking for a private tutor, and was wondering if you could teach me?
alina
Hi Alina, there are many schools and community clubs teaching Korean. As for my self, I don't think I am good enough to be a tutor :))
hi liyi, thanks for replying:)
btw may i know where you went to learn your korean at?
im contemplating the singapore korean school, but im not too certain if it's better than the community centers.
please do help me out, thanks:p
@bhua: you're welcome. There are several language schools you can choose from. For example: Singapore Korean School (At Lim Ah Woo Road), NUS Extension (At Park Mall), Cambridge Languages (Peninsula Plaza)
hello liyi언니 :D
先恭喜你新书即将面市ㅋㅋ 还有希望你的教书工作顺利噢
我呢一直有在学着韩语，现在因为学生交换计划而有机会来到韩国釜山
说到底还是想增进自己的韩语能力
外加游一游韩国
想问问你的意见，女生一个人的自助旅行在韩国行的通吗?
这里的学期结束后我想一个人到处走走，大概1个月的时间
除了首尔，你有什么其他地方推荐吗? 你新书出版的时候我还在这><
@liyieng: 如果你懂得韩语，一个人旅行应该还好。但毕竟是个女生，我建议还是找个伴同行，有个照应。除了首尔，可以考虑去남해(Namhae)，경주(GyeongJu)或济州岛。祝你游学愉快！
Hello liyi 언니
我上星期自己去了거제도和통영，算是给自己一个测试吧，收获当然是有苦有乐了～～ 现在在考虑济州自助旅行了 哈
我很期待你的新书! 不过我人在韩国，有上网订购的吗? 我好拿着你的书漫游首尔 嘻
祝新书大卖，教学愉快～
