last saturday, it was another trip to seoul -actually my seventh trip- and this time was for seoul character fair 2006. I had planned this trip quite long time ago, and asked gyu seung and jya yeong to join me. both were agree.. even jason also said he wanted to join the party.
but when the d-day was approaching, gyu seung brought a bad news. he couldn’t go but instead, the female assistant, son nu would go. and since jya yeong would go to his hometown in incheon on friday, then he would meet us at the coex where the fair was held. the daejeon group would consist of me, beny, jason and son nu. however, exactly on the d-day, jason suddenly had a meeting with his professor, beny was reluctant to go, son nu got sick, so it was only me, again to meet jya yeong at coex.
I took a express bus (another broke the cherry term, since it was my first time
) on 10:40 and arrived at seoul around one o’clock. I went to coex using the subway, and took my time to explore the bendi & lundi book store at the coex underground shopping mall before meeting jya yeong.
the event itself was great, there were lots of people, lots of things to see and of course lots of characters, including the cosplayers to meet. the full & ’serious’ resume in indonesian could be read here.
after the event, we had a dinner in gangnam area -area for the rich people of seoul, said jya yeong- then I headed for the seoul bus terminal for my trip home. but the trip home was very different than the morning trip, since it was weekend, the highway was flock with cars, and it took almost four hours from seoul to daejeon. I arrived at the daejeon express bus terminal around 10:30, just half hour before the dormitory’s door closing time. it was a narrow escape, a really tiring yet exciting day..
