Korea Chronicles : Lotte World Tower and Best Seafood in Seoul (Part 2)

Early this month I went to Korea for 10 days for both @USANAHealthSciences Asia Pacific Convention and holiday, to meet my friends in Korea. Thanks to my good friend @koreansusu3411 (Jinsu) I get to travel and experience Korea like a local.

This was part 2 of my trip which was after the convention. I went back to my friend's house near Lotte World Tower and visited many places around there which of course include the Legendary @lotteworldtower_official .

In the morning, we went for breakfast at Song Ri Dan Gil (Songridan Road) which is next to where Jinsu lives. The shops are open early morning and we can find a lot of fresh food there like seafood, meat, lots of fruits and vegetables and lots of breakfast places. We had our breakfast at Boribap which means Barley Rice. It's a very famous restaurant among the locals but tourist would not know about it. It was divine.

Then I went to Lotte World Tower ( @lotteworldtower_official ) I was so lucky that they were putting a Young Chang piano there for a month and I got to play it. There are so many talented kids, I think they are babies, in Korea, and almost all of them could play crazy technical classical songs. I need to retire soon. Anyway, of course I played on it too. I received a few encores from the audience and ended up playing multiple songs. Made a few new friends including one of my very own subscribers who's working at Lotte World Tower! She told me she has been watching me since she was 17.

Evening I went back to Jinsu's house, rested a little then proceeded for dinner at Songridan Road at a restaurant called Sol In Ne which is super famous for their Joen (Korean Pancakes). We ordered the variety one which includes most of the pancakes. With Rice Wine!!!! Too good!!!

Then we went for another dinner right opposite Sol In Ne, it was a seafood restaurant specialized in clams!!! We ordered the set which has everything too. It was divine!!!! One of the best seafood places I've ever eaten. So extremely fresh and very affordable!

At night, we went to the park outside Lotte World and talked about life and work.
