Unfold Korea The Journey to a New World: Spring in Jeju Island!

Finally I'm here updating my blog. Just realised that my last post was on September last year. There are so many things that I want to share with all of you but I'm too busy with my studies. Will try to spare some time and upload more interesting posts to share with everyone out there.

It's finally my favourite season of the year! SPRING! My mum and sister came to visit me so we decided to enjoy 벗꽃 in Jeju Island. We took Eastar Jet airline because it costs slightly cheaper than Jeju Airline. I would rate 3.5/5 for the airline. For our accommodation, I booked a hotel room from Agoda where I managed to get a super nice room nearby the beach for 50% discount!

As you all know, the transportation in Jeju Island is not as convenience as Seoul as they do not have the subway. You can either rent a car or rent a one day cab. We did not know that it was so hard to rent a one day cab as there were so many tourists visited there too. After searching through the internet, we managed to get the driver's number and gave him a call. I can say that I am lucky to meet this super friendly and kind driver, Mr. Richard Kim! This one day cab cost for KRW150,000 for 8 hours trip. You can just tell him the places that you want to go and he will arrange the schedule for you!

So we told Mr. Kim that our main purpose of visiting Jeju was to see the beautiful Canola flowers. So, he kindly arranged the schedule for us so that we will be able to go around Jeju enjoying the scenery and not forgetting to taste the famous 흑돼지 (black pork). At first, we went to 성산일출봉 Seongsan Ilchulbong Peak. The view was breathtaking.

Our next stop was to a place where we could take pictures with the beautiful Canola flowers. This place is at the roadside where you need to pay KRW1,000 in order to enter and take pictures with those beautiful flowers.

Before having our lunch, Mr. Kim brought us to a folk village where there is a guide who explained to us about the history of Jeju Island.

After taking so many pictures, we were all so hungry so Mr. Kim brought us to a restaurant where is well known for its black pork. I am so hungry that I forgot to take any pictures of the delicious food that I ate that day ㅠ.ㅠ.

After lunch, we continue our journey around Jeju. Our next stop was the Maze Land. If you watched Running Man, they came here in one of the previous episode. This place is indeed beautiful too. It is a great place to walk and spend time with your love one.
