FRIDAY NIGHT IN SEOUL

Can't believe it already has been 3 month since I started the blog.
I learned that it is harder than I think to post regularly. Well, to be able to have more frequent updates, I have bought myself a macbook air (I know it's only a rationalization for myself to feel better but oh well..)

As my second post, I thought it will be appropriate to start with the closest date I had fun which was last Friday. I love Fridays, btw. Who doesn't? you would say, but I want to believe that it is little more special to the girls out there who works from Monday to Friday. On weekends, I usually take some rest, do the chores that I was too lazy to do on work days, go see a movie, get my nails done and etc. But on Fridays, I need to have some fun!!!!

After work on Friday, first thing I did was go to BEAKER (which is a very young and casual multi shop located in Seoul) and get little something for me. I have a crazy festival coming up next Saturday, and girl's gotta always meet the dress code, right? what's in it will be revealed next Saturday night!!!!!



When a long friday night is waiting for you after shopping, you always need a Grande sized ice soy Latte! 




And you also get really really hungry after shopping, so you need a least 3 dishes per 2 people to get fully energized. This is restaurant called Marry go Round (92, Nonhyun-dong, Seoul) steakhouse. Since I don't prefer steak, me and my friend had Nasi Goreng, Vongole, and green salad. Santorini draft beer cannot be left out on summer night dinner ouside! right? Food here was better than I expected and it's not that pricy compared to other restaurant located in Nonhyun-dong.



Next stop is the very stylish german bar/diner, Platoon Kunsthalle (97-22, Nonhyun-dong, Seoul). It's built up with several container boxes and inside, there are many different type of sits you can choose. The atmosphere here is more like casual than fancy, so it seems perfect to have several drinks after work with your close friends. There are all kinds of german beers and cocktails to make you feel better.



Platton Kunsthalle is not just an ordinary bar/diner. It work with contemporary artists and have art exhibitions. Also, it is very famous for its various launching parties and flea market. But on Fridays, DJ starts to play some music from 9pm and it usually presents dreamy vibe with very carefully selected musics.




As you can see, there are bean bag chairs that literally makes you lie down. You can sit with these bean bag chairs vertically, but you will soon realize it is MUCH MORE COMPY to let it go and lie down. 









Where me and my friend were sitting had very red lights. All your pictures become red!


After several cold german beers and lime mojitos, we moved to Etaewon, Gecko's Avenue(116-6, Etaewon-dong, Seoul). Not many people were there even thought it was already the peak time of the night. But it was very classy and stylish. Perfect place for fancy cocktails.



After Gecko's Avenue, Friday night for me and my friend started! Well, but I was to busy to take pictures. Maybe next time for clubs and fun disco places in Korea.

Looking at the pictures, I cannot help but to think of fresh made mojitos. Ahhhh!!
But I must get myself together, since its MONDAY tomorrow!!!!!!! Hope everyone have awesome Monday.

See you all next time!
Love, Victoria
