Visit Korea Special VIP Tour [Day 1-2]

After sumptuous lunch, our energy level bounced back to 100%. Kim eonni told us that Trick Eye Museum is just a stone's throw away from Nature Kitchen Restaurant, so we just happily strolled there while window shopping around this Hongik University Street.

 

EXO Se Hun and Kai were waiting to cross the road 

from SPAO store. Omo~! They even smiled at us~!^^

~ Trick Eye Museum (트릭아이미술관) ~

We took tons of photos inside this interesting art museum!

When my kids went there in 2013, they took photos but I didn't see most of them when we're there. I think they replaced some of the paintings so that people won't get bored if they visit again next time.

 Panda mode activated... Hug Hug~!!!

I only found one similar photo... It finally it revealed to me the trick behind this photo. Actually we're lying on our tummies,but my son was lying on his back.

Well, it's kinda entertaining and we're just like kids having fun with these tricky paintings, so that it created illusion as if they're 3D instead of 2D on your photos. 

~ Ice Museum (아이스 뮤지엄) ~

 Icy cold in 'Christmas Wonderland' Ice Museum, but it didn't freeze our smiles~!

 

K-smiling with Mr Snowman, Mr Soldier and Mr Panda~^^ 

I didn't take photo of this Mirror Maze because we're fast enough

(maybe less than 1 minute) to find our way out with 6 pairs of hands! ;P

~ Hello Kitty Cafe (헬로키티 카페) ~

Fancy pink Hello Kitty Cafe at Hongdae. 

 

 This two-storey cafe painted with soft pastel pink tones and white color.

It's nice contrast with greenery garden outside the cafe, especially

there were lots of yellow quinces hanging on the tree.

I ordered Pinkcchino (핑크치노) just to match the dominant colors of the cafe.

Frankly speaking, I'm not a fan of Hello Kitty because I've phobia of cat (Ailurophobia). But, Hello Kitty still alright because it's not a real cat. Therefore, I prefer to see cream than cat on my cup. ;P

For the first time, my Instagram post has more than 100 likes

thanks to Hello Kitty die-hard fans out there~!^^

 

All Hello Kitty fans will definitely love to spend a lovely afternoon

 in this pretty cafe and pretend to be a princess of the day here.
