As a backpacker, I often stay in hostels when traveling abroad to save money. My experiences have generally been unremarkable, similar to previous trips.
.....................
Until the New Year's trip. Seoul - Tokyo <3<3<3
We will fly to Korea on the 24th to celebrate Christmas there. Then, we will fly directly to Tokyo to celebrate New Year's with friends.
We booked a flight with Vietnam Airlines, and we had to change planes in Ho Chi Minh City. It was a trip with many flights.
A round-trip ticket from Seoul to Tokyo on Korean Air costs 10,000 baht, which is almost as expensive as a round-trip ticket from Bangkok to Seoul.
The long layover left us feeling exhausted upon arrival in Seoul.
Exhausted, drowsy, and famished.
Dragging my luggage to a hostel near Hongdae, the student district. Everyone on the block has perfect eyeliner, and the oppas are handsome. 555
This area is highly recommended. It's bustling with people, offers various attractions, and is far from being deserted. Plus, it boasts delicious food options and the renowned "ร้านแปด" coffee shop.
After a slight detour and a steep uphill climb, I finally arrived at the hostel, dragging my 15kg suitcase behind me.
Overjoyed!
Upon opening the door, a sign was visible that read:
.
..
...
....
.....
Hostel: 2 floors
Oh, I'm so tired! 5555
Lugging my cumbersome luggage, I ascended the stairs and pressed the doorbell, uttering a drawn-out "Check in pleassssssssss."
We happened to meet the hostel owner, who was incredibly kind and friendly (both in personality and appearance). This hostel is truly exceptional! 555
The guesthouse was owned by a young man with glasses. Since we arrived early, before check-in time, we had to leave our luggage and go sit and wait.
We opened our bag to charge our phones, and then a young male employee approached.
This is an empty paragraph.
^_____^ and then said that they would help carry the bags to be stored.
... That pose is so cute! Honestly, it's even cuter than its owner! 555
Excited, excited, excited (why excited?) I didn't know what to do, so I said:
We have tom yum kung flavored seaweed, a Thai flavor. Have you ever tried tom yum kung?
He: Really? Never?
We: Try it (offering something to eat or drink).
He: "Hmm, thanks." Then he grabbed the whole bag.
We: ................................
He took everything. 5555 That's enough. His friend doesn't need to leave anything. I thought to myself, "Did I communicate wrongly?" 5555
That's right, the first time we met. ^^
Note: The conversation is in English.
Let's charge the battery for a while, then meet up with friends and grab something to eat.
We went on a trip with our host as our guide. We visited a small hill near the Olympic Stadium, which was very charming.
The weather above is pleasantly cool.
After that, I went to Insadong, had jajangmyeon, and then went to the Seoul Tower. As usual, before returning to the hostel.
We met a handsome man and had a brief conversation. He asked if the food was delicious and we chatted normally until we knew each other's names and ages.
The next day, we went out early in the morning.
We met in the morning, and he said "Merry Christmas" before rushing off. Nami Island, which is very popular with Thai people. 555
Upon returning, we exclaimed, "Annyeonghaseyo!"
He was surprised. They said we sound very similar, haha. So we had something to talk about.
Upon returning, it is customary to inquire about potential assistance required.
Due to the small size of the hostel, those who returned early would gather in the kitchen to chat and drink beer.
That day, I had the opportunity to celebrate Christmas with many international guests at the hotel. It was a lot of fun. The main point of that day was...
Why do Korean couples seem to be so deeply in love, especially during festivals? Their intense affection is a topic of much discussion and debate.
The situation was normal, we were talking normally, until the female employee knew our name, even though we had never talked to each other before.
One day, after returning from a shopping trip, we encountered him at the counter.
He: Where did you go today?
We: Oh, go skateboarding, go shopping, Myeongdong @&£&&$#|>}|<>
He: Really? ...
We: Hmm ^^
He smiled and looked at us.
She: (Smiling) (Blushing, heart beating fast 5555)
He: You...
We: Hmm...
He: Your lips are chapped!
We: ==!
He: (smiles sweetly again) ^^
5555555 Oh my! Why does romance have to come with embarrassment? I want to bury myself in the ground and disappear. So embarrassing! 555++++
I headed out to grab some Skin Food from a nearby store around 10 pm.
Legendary Nami 555
Upon arriving at Nami Island, we excitedly told our friends, "This is the famous Nami Island from Winter Love Song! Remember Bae Yong-joon?"
We are saying that you need to go take a picture with the statue of Bae Yong-joon.
Why are the tags "teen life" and "teen love" not showing up?
No, I'm still young (self-deception with a slight shake of the head) ^^
Continue.
After the lip split, it seemed like we became closer, until the night before we were going to Tokyo.
This has made me feel even better.
That night, we returned to the hostel and chatted as usual. There were three of us: me, him, and a Korean friend who was also staying at the hostel (why was a Korean staying at a hostel?). Oh, her house is in California. So, she became my excellent advisor because she knew both of them, even though it was only for 3-4 days.
We're hanging out because we're both flying out tomorrow.
Until two older women, one Korean and one Japanese, arrived and drank beer, becoming intoxicated.
We were okay with it, no big deal. So there were three of us: two older women and two Korean guys.
Three people are currently chatting in the kitchen at 3 am. It seems they won't be getting any sleep tonight.
They offered me to sleep in the staff room, apologizing profusely that the rooms were full. They insisted on sleeping in the kitchen themselves.
A kind-hearted Thai woman will go, haha.
In summary, you need to bring your luggage downstairs, take a shower, and get dressed, as you have to leave for the airport a little after 6:00 AM.
That day, we were overjoyed and talked until dawn. As we walked to the subway station on our way to the airport, he pulled my luggage for me.
Thrilled to be abroad, yet feeling the presence of true friends who stayed up all night to keep me company in the morning. This trip has been an absolute delight.
Upon arrival at the airport, they sent a message asking if I had arrived safely and reminding me not to miss my flight. They also inquired about my hunger and expressed general concern.
Ready to send. Food picture coming. "Hey, noona, I'm having breakfast."
So cute! ^__________^ 555
Let's go to Tokyo!
(Note: Hongdae Station does not have an elevator. You will need to carry your luggage up the stairs, which have more than 20 steps.)
Hongdae at night is a bustling scene, with Koreans staying up late. Even at midnight or 1 am, people can be found hanging out at cafes or milk tea shops. Sometimes, people even head out to party as late as 1 am.
The morning rush at the airport was still in full swing, with many people still out and about (presumably returning from a night out). The crowds started to thin out around 7-11 am.
The place is always bustling, especially around noon and in the afternoon.
Upon arriving in Tokyo, we signed up for free Wi-Fi from Thailand.
Enables us to converse seamlessly throughout the day.
Wow, this is incredible! 555
They downloaded simultaneously, across countries.
Eating and showing off, sleeping together, we walked and poked, and they didn't know how to chat, working at the same time.
Initially, he asked me to "buy him some Kirin." Later, he said, "I'm coming back to Korea. Please cook me a meal."
Blinded by love, I bought 3 packets of Lobo powder to make stir-fried basil and tom yum soup. 555555
We've been talking every day for almost a week now.
We spent a week in Tokyo before returning to Korea for two days before flying back to Thailand.
Upon returning to Tokyo, we were filled with a mixture of excitement and trepidation. Our previous experience in the city had not been entirely positive, leaving us with a lingering sense of unease. The memory of those tearful days still haunted us.
This time, I'm afraid it will sting 555 Luckily, I have a young man from Seoul to talk to, so I'm not lonely or distracted (or maybe even more so 55). I don't regret it.
This trip to Tokyo was incredibly enjoyable.
And Tokyo is also the place where we met.
...................
Crowds of people queuing to pray at shrines on New Year's Day.
Approximately 1:00 AM to almost 2:00 AM.
Encountered one family along the way.
They asked for directions to Tokyo Skytree.
We smiled and chatted briefly in English.
Before turning to see the Thai guidebook, "Oh, are you Thai?"
They chatted intimately like old friends, before ending the conversation with, "I'm not sure, I just followed him."
It's interesting how often people ask me for directions when I'm abroad.
My face doesn't seem to fit in with this country, haha. I've been mistaken for being from everywhere, from Europe to Asia.
Even when I went to Burma, the immigration officer greeted me in Burmese! Haha, well, the officer has a good eye. Burma is the closest country after all. 555
This time in Tokyo, we stayed in the Ikebukuro district. We liked it, it's close to tourist attractions. We spent our days riding the Yamanote Line, it's convenient.
Very popular, full of Thai people. I met them at the hostel.
Before we return, due to my obsession with buying travel books, I have accumulated a large collection.
We happened to meet a Thai family and smiled at each other. So we asked,
We: Hi, I have a great book about Tokyo. Would you like it? I'm going back today. ^^
He: Oh, no.
The sound of his voice was electrifying, like a bolt of lightning striking. I'm not sure how to describe it, but it was amazing.
Even being pelted with stones wouldn't hurt as much as this.
(I feel like my body has a big tiger-555)
I am sorry to hear that you are feeling this way. It is important to remember that everyone makes mistakes, and it is okay to ask for help. If you are feeling overwhelmed, please reach out to a trusted friend or family member, or seek professional help. There are many resources available to help you cope with difficult emotions, and you do not have to go through this alone.
Staying at the same hostel without moving allowed us to make many new friends.
Most of them are ABCs from New York. They hang out together, go on trips, and go dancing.
Talk about dance 5555555
The night before returning home.
Abc: Neutral.
Peru: (Origin unknown) I want to go too. Let's go!
We went together, just the two of us, spontaneously.
After consulting with a friend, they suggested going to RCA, as it is known for its vibrant nightlife.
So I took a taxi to...
Help! The taxi is very expensive.
Free entry, great pub, good fun. We got a free drink upon entry.
We ordered a Coke.
The employee said 500 yen.
The exclamation marks indicate a strong emphasis or excitement. However, without further context, it is impossible to determine the specific meaning or intention behind their use.
We thought it was a free exchange, so we kept all our money in the locker. 555
Umm...
"No, thank you." 5555 I'm so embarrassed. They looked at me like I didn't have 500 yen.
But it was a lot of fun.
The taxi ride back was uneventful, and I slept soundly until morning.
The next day
We went out with bare faces and started putting on makeup. Then, an attractive ABC guy approached us and asked if we wanted to go out that night.
We see each other every morning in the mirror, but we don't greet each other. Today, we greeted each other. Haha.
He came from Canada, but we happened to return, and my friend moved hostels, so we didn't go. We exchanged Facebook to talk instead.
We recommend visiting various locations, including...
Cut back to Sol.
We talked to Sol as usual, and they told us what time their flight was.
What time will you be there? I'll pick you up at Incheon.
"See you, Noona!"
A smiley face with closed eyes and a wide smile.
We left the hostel in the late morning and went for a walk in Ueno Park, where we did a little shopping.
Hello everyone!
7:30 p.m. The plane landed safely on the runway.
After clearing immigration and collecting your luggage, proceed to the designated waiting area outside.
We have arrived. Where are you?
I'll send you my heart later.
We: ............ H H Head Heart ..... What heart ^^
He: The hearts in Candy Crush, Nuna, have you never played it?
We: .............. Hmm, waiting for you at exit xx.
He: Hello ^^
5555555 Candy Crush hearts? Oh my, you're thinking too much. 555
After a while, he arrived and tapped me on the shoulder from behind. He leaned in and said,
"Have I kept you waiting long, Noona? ^^"
".......... >__< So embarrassed."
"Let's go."
After a week of chatting, we finally met in person. I felt incredibly shy and didn't know what to talk about.
"I've never been to Incheon before. I got a little lost. The airport is huge."
"Is this your first time here?"
"Yes, that's right."
"Hmm..."
"I'm here to pick up Nuna," he said with a sweet smile.
"Thank you for being such a good child." 555
^_____^
Wait, am I imagining things? 555 You came to pick me up even though you were busy, and you've never been to the airport before?
She thought to herself, pouting slightly. "Wow, I'm something else." (Blushing even harder) >__<
(While in Tokyo, he wanted a Kirin (I don't know if it's true or not). He acted cute, and I told him, "You have to be a good boy, okay?"
Nuna will buy it for Hee as a reward for being a good child by picking her up at the airport. Initially, we stayed at another place, but when she arrived, we moved back to the original hostel so that we could have time to talk.
"Here, I bought you a green Kirin. It's in my suitcase." (pats suitcase)
"Noona, I can buy Kiri here," he chuckled softly.
"Why did you tell me to buy it then?"
"I really want to meet Noona."
Wow!
I guess I wasn't imagining things after all. 555
As I type this, I can't help but smile. The memory is still vivid in my mind. 555
He then came to drag the bag for me.
We walked and talked until we reached the train station. We sat down and looked at photos from our trip, discussing what we should eat.
He: "Noona, what do you want to eat? Let's go eat together."
We: "Kimchi Jjigae, take us there."
"Sure, let me put my things away and then we can go out to eat with my friends."
"Huh? A friend?"
He: "Oh, it's just a friend. It's okay, right?"
We: "Oh, that's great! It's fun when many people are doing well." ^^
After putting away the items, I greeted my friend as usual and then went out to eat.
You: Do you come here often?
Their friend: Uh-huh, often.
We: What a coincidence, we meet again ^^
Their friends: Hmm... We came here to see you.
The first 55,555 flowers were sold. What are the guys talking about?
^_____^
Her friend: This is our friend, she talks about you a lot, so we wanted to meet you.
Two flowers arrived quickly.
We: Huh... Oh, really? ^^ What did you say?
Her friend said that she is lovely and kind.
What do you think of our friend? (with a pressing gaze)
Flower 3 captures the target area m555
Their friend: Really? Why don't you help us like this?
He: Okay, okay, stop talking and eat. Eat up. (He said this while turning to serve us curry.)
Friend: Hey, give me some too! I want you to serve me too!
And then they all burst into laughter. 555+++
Oh, you caught me off guard! I'm a little flustered. ^^
Here I am.
After dinner, I went to a coffee shop.
Very cute and adorable! 555
My friends wouldn't stop teasing me, so I decided to join in on the fun. Should I show you the picture?
We have posted a lot on Facebook. ^^
Her friend: Oh, I saw your Facebook. You've been to so many places.
You: Wow, how did you know? Haha.
Their friend: Well, they opened it for us to see.
>____< 5555
It seems everyone is already aware of this.
We played cards and the loser got flicked on the forehead, just like in the series. Haha.
We lost, so we got eliminated, but it was very mild.
His friends said, "Hey, that's not fair!"
After a while, we returned to the hostel and ordered fried chicken to eat.
They talked until 3 am before going back to sleep.
Today, my Japanese and Hong Kong roommates, two sisters, returned from a night out at the pub.
We chatted for a while before talking to my friend in Japan and then went to sleep.
Wake up early in the morning.
We would go out to buy groceries, buy meat to cook. Waking up in the morning, taking a shower, and coming down, I saw the Hong Kong girl wake up and sit down to write in her notebook early in the morning.
Chatting with my Korean guy (how bold of him) 555
He rushed over and said, "I'll take Nuna myself," and offered to help carry things.
Let's go back to the food and see what the Korean guys like. So we invited our Hong Kong roommate to join us.
They messaged me saying, "Sleep well, see you in the evening (wouldn't it be faster to just knock on my door?)" 55
In the evening, we woke up and went out to eat together. At first, he didn't want to come out because his friends weren't around, but he eventually did.
Enjoying a sweet barbecue together. ^^
We said, "It's time to meet our friends. We'll see you later. We'll go back and drink the Kirin beer we bought together. Wait a moment."
They are okay.
After we had been with our friends for a while, we received a message that...
"Noona, hurry back! I'm eager to have a beer with you. Waiting for you ;) "
We recounted the encounter to our friend, who exclaimed in surprise, "Wow, that's unusual! You should head back quickly, they might be waiting for you."
We rushed back.
Things seemed to be going well until...
.....................
It seemed like things were going well, but they weren't.
Upon our return, we were greeted by a bustling kitchen filled with people. It seemed unlikely that we would be able to enjoy a meal alone, so we decided to have a conversation while we waited. During our conversation, we overheard them speaking with someone from Hong Kong.
Without giving it much thought, I assumed they were unable to leave, so I went upstairs to shower and pack my belongings.
After I came downstairs to write in my diary, the people at the hostel invited me to sit with them.
Hong Kong, Japan, Korea, and Thailand (of course, Hong Kong is sitting next to him)
Everyone started to get drunk. We sat and talked to each other.
After a while, we started to think that there was nothing we could do. We were flying back early the next morning, so we wouldn't be able to sit down and eat. There was nothing we could do about it, but we were a little upset.
After a while, he spoke up.
"Hello, Noona. It's nice to meet you. I really like you."
We looked at each other, smiled, and said...
"Avoid speaking when intoxicated, as you may be unaware of your words."
Stunned silence for 10 seconds.
We'll take our leave and go back to sleep.
"Good luck. It was nice meeting you. I won't be able to wake up to take you tomorrow. I'm taking my leave here."
The case has taken a dramatic turn. I can't believe you did this to me. I was furious at the time.
He was completely intoxicated, incoherent, and unconscious.
We have a strong feeling that Hong Kong likes Hee. They were secretly photographed together.
"Hong Kong, you can't do this to Thailand!"
55555555555555555
We walked like this, very angry (angry at ourselves, haha) because we broke the promise. What the heck?
As I walked to the subway, I must have looked very gloomy. A foreigner greeted me, saying:
"God loves you."
And then we were like, "Oh, really?" and all our anger just vanished.
It's not all bad luck.
Subsequently, a series of positive events unfolded...
Thank you for following.
We listened to her complaints from beginning to end. We went to scroll through the photos on the page that our Seoul guy had previously posted. Haha.
Here is a translation of the sentence: "In case anyone wants to see the face of the cruel person, the fickle man, haha."
Many people might think that the love that is supposed to be a soul mate, well... it used to be, right? For a week or two, haha.
We are attempting to determine whether our perception is accurate. However, the events described are a truthful account, without any embellishments.
We are still friends today, but I don't understand what happened. It changed so suddenly.
We don't fall in love easily, nor do we intend to be serious. Deep down, we wonder how it's possible for people who have just met to be in a relationship.
However,
...........
Reality is stranger than fiction.
It could happen.
But just
...........
Happened to another person ^____^
One day after returning, ABC, whom I met in Tokyo, sent me a message.
And so, the entire story began with that very message. ^^
