Free Shuttle Bus From Seoul to Jeonju

Free Shuttle Bus from Seoul to Jeonju | by Meheartseoul
Jeonju is a popular and important touristy district because of its historical charms and pampered with lots of delicious delicacies. Jeonju is really a perfect name for this perfect area (전 / Jeon = perfect, 주 / Ju = area).

I just checked the website for online booking, and found that
they're adding information on the calendar.

Therefore, it's easier to plan if you're interested to join the festivals such as: Jeonju International Film Festival, Hanji Festival, Namwon Chunhyang Festival,... However, the bad news is they started to charge $10.00 (KRW 10,000) from April 2016 onwards.

Pick-up point is located at parking lot of 동화면세점 
Donghwa duty free shop - blue long signage.
(Gwanghwamun Subway Station Exit 6 - opposite Cheongyecheon Stream).

Actually the fee is cheap considering it's for round trip (same fare for one way trip), and so much convenient as you can do the booking one month in advance, so no need to rush to crowded bus terminal and worry that you might not be able to get the ticket.

Afraid that taxi will reject riding 4 person with 3 big luggage,
we came out from hotel about an hour earlier.

 Admiral Lee Sun Shin at Gwanghwamun Square
and spotted someone shooting video there.

While waiting for the bus, suddenly two Ahjumma turned me to face them, and another one started flipping my skirt (치마). They talked but I didn't catch what they said as I was too startled.

"예쁘다!" both of them nodded they heads after satisfied checking from top to bottom and front and back. I also followed their actions to look at myself trying to figure out whether I wore it wrongly or something went wrong... 

엄마야~ actually they just want to admire the beauty of the hanbok. They made me stunned like mannequin!

After the guide checked our printed tickets and passports, we boarded the bus and left Seoul at 8:00 am. There were about 80 foreigners in two buses on that day. We identified there was a group of 6 Singaporean sat behind us as they're talking in Singlish.

[Seoul] - Kidzania Children’s Job Experience Theme Park (키자니아 어린이직업체험 테마파크)

Kidzania Children’s Job Experience Theme Park (키자니아 어린이직업체험 테마파크)| by Meheartseoul
We'd problem to access to Kidzania's website in Singapore and Korea. Therefore we called KTO Info Hotline 1330 to check whether it's still operating, as we wanted to make sure first, else it'll be wasting our time to make a trip there for nothing. From the hotline, the officer told us to do the reservation through info@kidzania.co.kr as each session has limited admission.

 Lotte World & Kidzania Theme Park.

Luckily we did as what KTO Officer suggested us, when we reached Kidzania it was 4 minutes before 15:30, and I think they're not accepting any visitors for that day anymore unless there's reservation. The lady asked me in Korean whether I had booked, and I replied yes but no replied from Kidzania yet. I think it's because we emailed it on that day around 11:20 while we're waiting for doctor's appointment at Gangnam Severence Hospital.

Happy Xuan and Zhi as they received cheque worth 50 Kidzos!

Then she asked a guy to verify the email. We showed him, and he immediately went to the Korean Air ticket counter to print our tickets after wrote down our names from the email. We're grateful as he's so helpful and he did his best so that he could let us admit to the park the soonest. After he passed the RFID tags for kids to wear on their wrist, he noticed that they only left with Korean brochures on the shelves. So he ran to the office and came out to us with the printed English brochure.

When we asked him whether there's locket to store our belongings, he brought us there too.Thank you for your attentive and excellent service.

Korean Air Boarding Pass & Kidzos Notes.

After put down our heavy bag and rented hanbok, he suggested us to go to Korean Air, but we saw the long queue, so we thought to come back later, however we didn't have time to do so. It seemed fun to become pilot or flight attendant. Actually, my childhood's dream was to become air stewardess.

I should ask my kids to write this post, as they're the ones experienced the theme park.

Baker Xuan wearing white uniform, apron and toque hat
at Paris Baguette Bakery's kitchen.

Do you see those 2 cuties inside the bakery? This theme park set minimum age of 3 years old to maximum is 16 years old. If you're below or above the range, you can't join the role play.

It's not easy to write this posting, they should be writing their reviews because they're the ones experiencing it. My husband and I were just watching them from outside as the spectators / photographers. Now I'd to interview them on what they did inside. And because of 2 photographers, I have tons of repeated photos and videos...

Xuan need to pay 15 Kidzos to learn how to prepare the bread, but they can bring back the bread. Zhi didn't want to join this as he wanted to earn money first before spend it. His goal was to earn million kidzos!!!


Training to hit hole in one shot?!
 
Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com
Zhi was awarded 5 Kidzos after completed the course
at Kidzania JTBC Golf Club.

Parents can relax, surf internet, or read magazines at Parents' Lounge.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com
My hubby went to Parent's Lounge to survey and shocked to find nobody inside
but 2 handphones and bag were left there, so he took the above photo just to show me.

I told him it's common in Korea as it's low crimes there. However, my suggestion is don't do it at the places where there are a lot of foreigners such as in the airport. It's simply because I don't want to blame someone if I lost my belongings.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.sg 
Kidzania's city!

Zhi was having problem as the golf instructor didn't know how to speak English, or maybe he taught Zhi is local. Then, we decided it's faster to join the activities together because of the waiting time and time needed for the activities also different. It'll be hard to locate each others at this 3 storey building.  Kidzania is mimicking the real town which has 74 professions in diver

From the second activities onward, I did ask the staffs whether they can speak English, some said they're able to converse a bit. So, at least the staffs knew that these 2 kiddos not locals, and might not understand the instructions, they will only follow what others doing.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com
The second job experience was becoming Environmental Health
Service Consultant at Environmental Health R&D Centre.

After briefing, they went out to inspect the restaurant's sewage, and kill the pests using laser light gun. While the lady staff explaining the process in Korean language, the male staff did his best to guide Xuan & Zhi and talked to them in simple English. Thank you...


After collected water sample from the glass in the restaurant,
they walked back to their office and shouting "We're the best...?"
 Their last task was to see the water sample under the microscope in the office.

Zhi has the ambition to become hotel owner. When I told him then this should be the perfect job experience for him. But he told me that as the owner, he'll hire employees to do everything. I told him that he still need to know everything from the bottom so that he knows everything about hotelier.

Just in time to swing from R&D Centre to Lotte Hotel. Then, checked with the staff and he said he can speak a bit of English, so no problem for them to join. While waiting for other participants, he even chatted with my kids in English. He told them that he couldn't speak English in English language!

Scanned RFID Tag & Photo taking for Lotte Hotel Card.

Firstly, they're taught on etiquette on greeting guests politely and with a nice smile. They learned how to introduced themselves in Korean: "Annyeonghaseyo Lotte Hotel (Name) imnida." Then, followed by polite bowing and how to place their hands correctly. For female, the right hand above the left hand, and vice versa for the male.

He also told them that depends on nationality of the guests, it's better if they can greet them in their languages, such as "Welcome", "Arigatogozaimasu", "Gamsahamnida",...

Cute Bonus: Zhi introducing himself in Korean when he's 5 years old.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.sg
Their role-playing activities including house keeping,
room service, breakfast service, and porter service.


Fun and engaging activities for kids!

The staff in Lotte Hotel was very passionate in guiding kids. He's like a big brother to my kids from the start to the end. Therefore, you can see them smiling and laughing for the whole session there. Partly it's lucky that no other kids joining them, else he'd to explained in Korean and English. A big thanks to him for bringing so much fun and teaching them some useful skills.

 Lotte Hotel Kidzania Membercard.

When they're going for porter service, suddenly there's little courier service guys delivering parcel to Lotte Hotel. After they came up the the baggage, they were awarded with 8 Kidzos and Lotte Card which entitled to some (Sorry I couldn't locate the cards for the exact percentage) discount if you stay in Lotte Hotel. Cool promotion, isn't it?



Please watch this video for more job experiences...

CSI - Kidzania Police Department.

Kids were asked to watch CCTV footage where a random person walked in the police station,  sprayed paint and switched off the CCTV. Then they were asked to find the evidences such as fingerprints, tissue paper,... for investigation.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com
 Both of them didn't understand the instructions as it's Korean language.

However, they somehow managed to guess what CSI supposed to do. My son said that Konglish words such as 핑거프린트 (pingeopeulinteu), tissue papereu quite obvious. Hahaha smart boy! 

Left about 2 hours, so I told them to just spend their hard earned Kidzos, else they won't have chance to use it. See... most of the crowds are mostly food and beverages stores!

 Crowd around Ghana Chocolate Factory, Baskin Robbins,
and Dunkin Donuts stores.

Process of making Ghana Chocolate.

My kids commented that basically they didn't do much here, just pouring the melted chocolate distributed by the Zupervisor to the template. After that, they were given the hardened chocolate that made by the earlier batches. No wonder, they can have a group of 12 each time.

My son was quite disappointed as the chocolate he received was 'low' quality because it's so thin... maybe the person spilled the chocolate. He said the one who get his will be satisfied as he did it perfectly... wakaka!

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com 
Baskin Robbins Ice Cream Shop.

The last role-play for them was at Baskin Robbins. It's nothing much to do here to... according to my kids, they just selected the flavor (Chocolate, Strawberry, Vanilla, Mint), then decorate with cookies and chocolate.

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.sg
 Free Baskin Robbins Kid's Sundae worth 3,300 Won.
(They just need to pay 15 Kidzos / person).

My son was expecting they taught them how to make ice cream, so he can make it at home to eat or sell it to earn money. Yes, he's indeed business minded boy!

Kidzania Seoul Children’s Job Experience Theme Park | www.meheartseoul.blogpsot.com
You can buy ice cream, donuts, chocolate or drinks
directly from the shops. But, if you make it 
yourself it'll taste sweeter, right?! ;P ^^

They wanted to go to Dunkin Donuts because each class took about 20 minutes. However, the queuing time took much longer than our predictions... For Ghana, waited for 25 minutes, but it took 45 minutes for Baskin Robbins because there were more than 6 participants in the line. So, they'd to join the next workshop. Anyway, for 6 hours they managed to explore 5 different jobs.

MBC News, Toon!verse Voice Acting Studio, Acting Academy,

but my kids 'die-die' didn't want to go there.

 Wish that they open the similar theme park or workshops for adult too, so...

I've the chance to experience some of my dream jobs such as stewardess, doctor, fashion designer, model,... which I couldn't fulfill it in real life due to lack of self-confidence.

Kidzania just opened its new city at Palawan Beach Sentosa on 12 April. I don't think we can go visit so soon as it must be super crowded... that's one of the reason why I brought them to Kidzania Seoul, though there's language barrier. FYI, Busan finally has its own Kidzania, which opened 4 days before Kidzania Singapore.

[Apgujeong] - Ashley Queens World Gourmet Buffet (애슐리퀸즈 압구정점)

Ashley Queens World Gourmet Buffet (애슐리퀸즈 압구정점) | by Meheartseoul
Cold weather added that we didn't eat much in the morning, causing our tummies grumbling while we're waiting for doctor's appointment.

Ashley Queens Buffet Apgujeong (애슐리퀸즈 압구정점) | www.meheartseoul.blogspot.sg
 Ashley Queen (애슐리퀸즈).

I found out this restaurant because of Korean Drama 'She Was Pretty' (그녀는 예뻤다). If you remember the scene when Kim Shin-hyuk and Kim Hye-jin having a meal here where the background was the above photo showing lighted sign 'Ashley Queens'.

Googled to check this restaurant in Seoul, and found out that Ashley is chain restaurant. Ashley Queens is one of them, which operated since Dec 2014.

Ashley Queens, Ashley W, Ashley W+ and Ashley Queens, Ashley Marine are Salad Buffet Restaurant. The number and type of dishes serving on each restaurants resulting the difference in the prices. Besides that, they also have two premier restaurants: Ashley Brunch and 83Grill by Ashley.  

Ashley Brunch serving ala carte brunch set, salad, sandwich, pizza, pasta, cake and dessert. And for 83Grill by Ashley is classy complete course for lunch or dinner with amuse-bouche, appetizer, soup, main course (pasta / steak / fish), dessert, coffee or tea.

From the website, this restaurant looks pretty romantic, but it's located at E-World 83 Tower in Daegu. If I have a chance to go there, after my meal I'd like to top up 15,000 won for wine course. I bet the 360 degree view of entire city from 78 floor will be super awesome to enjoy it with a glass of wine or two.

D'Maris Buffet Restaurant | www.meheartseoul.blogspot.sg 
But, the moment we arrived at the building, my hubby and I were 
wondering why this restaurant was so similar to 
 D'Maris Buffet Restaurant.

Ashley Queens Buffet Apgujeong (애슐리퀸즈 압구정점) | www.meheartseoul.blogspot.sg
 We remembered that D'maris also located on the basement,
on the right after came down from the escalator.


Ashley Queens Buffet Apgujeong (애슐리퀸즈 압구정점) | www.meheartseoul.blogspot.com
Hhhmm weird! But at that time, we concluded that maybe some of the building
just look similar, and buffet restaurants like to rent the whole basement area!

The waitress led us to our seat, and it's actually quite crowded though from outside it seems like not so many customers. Great that we didn't have to wait because this restaurant is super spacious.

'Queens' photos were artistically displaying on the walls.

Without wasting much time, we went one round to see, and we're sad to see the spread! It's too much food... and our main concern was how to select and eat them in such a short time!

Ashley Queens is really serving world Gourmet Buffet, as you can find signature dishes from Korea and others countries:

This is my kids favorite counter. My son was so addicted to eat Honey Potato Chip, and kept walking back and forth to refill his plate.

If you noticed, there were chefs or staffs behind every stations. They prepared, cooked and refilled the foods. It's really really fresh and delicious!

  Assorted Fried Food & Mushroom Soup.

 Hubby's choice...

Actually, just sampling a bite size of 50% of the buffet spread enough to make us 3/4 full. So we skipped a lot of food such as fried rice, pasta, noodle, pizza, bibimbap, curry, salad,... some because we can easily find them elsewhere.

The other reason was we're rushing... only spent about 1 hour there as we need to arrive at Kidzania latest by 15:30 pm. Else we can enjoy and indulged more dishes. 

Let's go to Desserts corners for something sweet!
