Havent had the time to post my S. Korea trip unti now.

It was a week long trip visiting some of the more popular touristy places in Korean, and yes.. not to forget the main reason behind this trip - snow and skiing.



Some of the places we went to include Seoul, Everland and Lotte themeparks (which were surprising more fun and interesting than i expected), Yong Pyong Ski Resort (where the famous 'Winter Sonata' was filmed), Jeju Island (the no. 1 honeymoon location in S. Korea), etc.



The pictures speaks louder than words.

Enjoy!

Yong Pyong Ski Resort



u may not believe it.. but i'm at the Dragon Peak.. which is the highest peak in Yong Pyong Ski resort. the temp is -8C, and the wind is so strong and bittering cold!

Scenic Moments at Mt Sorak National Park

Also known as Seoraksan National Park. We had to take a cable and walked the rest of the way up the peak. The scenery was breathtakingly beautiful!

Beautiful Jeju

济州岛有三多：风多，马多和女人多。因为四面环海，海产丰富，男人多数都以捕鱼为生。很多时候，一去不归。女人就得自力更生，养家糊口。

There are a few must-see places in Jeju, namely the 'mysterious road', Sunrise Peak, teddy bear museum and the sea-women divers, aka “海女”。

I'm standing on the Sunrise Peak. This is actually an extinct volcanic crater.
