Korea Life - 6 June 2014 (Day 104 week 15)
Our second morning in Gwang-ju, started early in the morning. Although hostel does provide breakfast, LJ woke up early to make breakfast for us while the rest were still sleeping. Last night, she didn't had the chance to wash up so she woke up earlier this morning to wash up first.
Went out to meet up with our old classmate, Joseph, who moved over to study here instead (He's here in Korea to promote Catholic study) after breakfast. Subway here in Gwang-ju is not as confusing as Seoul as there is just one subway line running whole Gwang-ju, so it's easy for us to take the subway. What make me like this place the most is that, no matter where we go, there is no crowd. SO HAPPY
Met up with Joseph at his university to take a look around. As the University students are on vacation, there wasn't much people in the campus therefore we had the chance to really take a good look of the campus, however the campus is WAY too big for us to discover.
We wanted to have a better chat with Joseph so we went off for lunch that the hostel owner introduce us to go. Even if we wanted to take the cab, it's not easy as there are 5 of us, so we asked the driver first if they willing to drive all 5 of us in one cab and we did found one which quote and off the meter.
Cost - 8,000 won (side dishes are all refillable excluding rice)

Korea Fermented crab which also known as Gejang, is made by marinating fresh raw crabs either in soy sauce or in a sauce in chill pepper power. Not many people able to accept this dish as the crabs are raw and some thinks can't accept the taste but if you like this, this restaurant serve the best fermented crab dishes (as you can keep refilling until you are happy)
We didn't plan ahead what to do in Gwangju so we decided to walked around the restaurant. Found a bus that goes to the city after our walk around the restaurant. Headed back t the central of the city to a big shopping mall to walk around and sent Joseph to the bus station before we take the subway back to our hostel to rest. We were too tired to go out so we asked the owner to help us to order pizza and we just stayed in. Tomorrow have to wait early to get ready to take the train back to Seoul
