00:00:27.433 --> 00:00:31.400
This salt bread was buttery and delicious :P

00:00:35.433 --> 00:00:39.466
Spent my first days cafe hopping & editing

00:00:41.433 --> 00:00:44.266
I booked an airbnb in Seongsu~

00:00:47.400 --> 00:00:50.333
Visited my friend's school to work together

00:00:50.333 --> 00:00:53.433
Seeing my first snow in korea ❅

00:00:55.400 --> 00:00:59.266
fried chicken for dinner

00:01:01.833 --> 00:01:05.500
Watching I Am Solo! I love korean dating shows haha

00:01:05.500 --> 00:01:07.533
Hello, I'm in Korea right now.

00:01:07.533 --> 00:01:09.700
I got to Korea a couple of days ago,

00:01:09.700 --> 00:01:11.666
but I've just been spending the past couple of days

00:01:11.666 --> 00:01:13.666
editing my finals week vlog.

00:01:13.666 --> 00:01:16.833
I had over 5 hours of footage for that vlog.

00:01:16.833 --> 00:01:19.533
It was just a lot of footage that I had to sift through.

00:01:19.533 --> 00:01:22.233
I think initially, the vlog was like 40 minutes long,

00:01:22.233 --> 00:01:24.533
and now, I was able to get it down to 30 minutes,

00:01:24.533 --> 00:01:26.333
but even that is just so long.

00:01:26.333 --> 00:01:28.233
I don't know how I had so much footage.

00:01:28.233 --> 00:01:30.466
I really do like how the video turned out, though,

00:01:30.466 --> 00:01:32.866
so if you haven't watched that one, go watch it.

00:01:32.866 --> 00:01:35.233
Today, I'm going to go to a skincare clinic in Gangnam.

00:01:35.233 --> 00:01:36.400
It's called Muse Clinic.

00:01:36.400 --> 00:01:39.266
And I'm going to get some skin treatments done.

00:01:45.300 --> 00:01:47.766
I washed my face first!

00:01:47.766 --> 00:01:51.366
Before the treatments - very nervous...

00:01:51.366 --> 00:01:54.233
InMode FORMA, 0/10 pain level, just felt warm

00:01:55.666 --> 00:01:58.666
ThermageFLX 300 shots

00:01:58.666 --> 00:02:01.700
This was quite painful, but definitely worth the results :')

00:02:04.833 --> 00:02:06.466
Certification for authenticity

00:02:06.466 --> 00:02:10.833
Ultherapy 100 shots for my double chin

00:02:10.833 --> 00:02:13.700
The sun had already set by the time I left

00:02:13.700 --> 00:02:16.933
Daily convenience store run 🏃

00:02:19.900 --> 00:02:23.033
Always go for those 1+1 deals

00:02:23.033 --> 00:02:24.666
Ignore my under eyes.

00:02:24.666 --> 00:02:27.433
I got Rejuran injections for my dark circles,

00:02:27.433 --> 00:02:30.900
so they're very swollen and bruised up right now, but

00:02:30.900 --> 00:02:33.900
I feel like my jaw is so snatched right now.

00:02:33.900 --> 00:02:36.766
Like, it's crazy how instant the results are.

00:02:36.766 --> 00:02:38.800
There's like no downtime whatsoever.

00:02:38.800 --> 00:02:41.800
My double chin... is no longer there.

00:02:47.500 --> 00:02:48.866
Mochi ice cream~

00:02:48.866 --> 00:02:51.533
I got a haircut in the morning

00:02:51.533 --> 00:02:54.133
I got the strawberry one 🍓

00:02:56.633 --> 00:02:58.133
Iced americanos as always

00:02:58.133 --> 00:03:00.200
Came to get my nails done 💅

00:03:00.200 --> 00:03:02.400
Something like this..

00:03:02.400 --> 00:03:03.366
Those colors?

00:03:03.366 --> 00:03:04.066
Yes.

00:03:08.733 --> 00:03:11.466
I usually can't have nail art during the school year

00:03:11.466 --> 00:03:14.233
So I was excited to get my nails done for the few weeks I'm here.

00:03:20.166 --> 00:03:22.566
They came out so pretty, I'm obsessed 🤩

00:03:32.800 --> 00:03:35.766
Visited the mofusand pop-up in seongsu!

00:03:43.333 --> 00:03:45.533
So many cute stickers T.T

00:03:45.533 --> 00:03:47.800
- yeah, I think I'll get the strawberry.

00:03:50.866 --> 00:03:53.833
Dessert after dinner, of course 🍰

00:03:56.833 --> 00:03:58.533

00:03:58.533 --> 00:04:00.733

00:04:05.766 --> 00:04:09.133
We're looking for the door LOL

00:04:10.066 --> 00:04:12.166
I was shook 🫨

00:04:16.266 --> 00:04:17.866
- cheers! 🥂

00:04:21.066 --> 00:04:22.733
- oh, it's really sweet

00:04:30.633 --> 00:04:34.133
On my way to do some shopping in dongdaemun

00:04:38.333 --> 00:04:41.200
This place had a TON of jewelry & accessories

00:04:49.700 --> 00:04:52.233
This store was next door, so we stopped by!

00:04:55.333 --> 00:04:57.066
Came to hongdae~

00:05:01.033 --> 00:05:03.533
Using anything as a tripod is a universal thing haha

00:05:03.533 --> 00:05:06.566
The owner gave us tea & hot packs 🥹

00:05:06.566 --> 00:05:09.366
Just tested out a few scents!

00:05:15.100 --> 00:05:17.566
Looking for a planner for the new year

00:05:17.566 --> 00:05:20.233
They were all so cute, I was so indecisive 😭

00:05:20.233 --> 00:05:21.433
photobooth time~

00:05:30.333 --> 00:05:31.466
Cuteee

00:05:40.800 --> 00:05:44.266
We attempted to make dalgona (but failed)

00:05:45.766 --> 00:05:48.566
This guy gave us his dalgona LOL >>

00:05:57.966 --> 00:06:01.800
Heating up my pastries

00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:03.800
Studied a bit today 📚

00:06:03.800 --> 00:06:05.866
Walking home...

00:06:07.866 --> 00:06:09.800
It started snowing 🌨️

00:06:13.866 --> 00:06:15.166
PIZZA ‼️

00:06:15.166 --> 00:06:17.300
Zero sugar Milkis

00:06:19.233 --> 00:06:21.933
I'm watching I Am Solo (again)

00:06:25.200 --> 00:06:26.533
It's so good

00:06:26.533 --> 00:06:30.100
I love korean potato pizza 🥔

00:06:35.200 --> 00:06:37.233
Pretty christmas decorations ✨

00:06:50.733 --> 00:06:53.033
I bought a perfume!

00:06:56.500 --> 00:06:59.500
I have no depth perception.

00:07:04.200 --> 00:07:07.600
My friend tried and got it first try lol

00:07:15.066 --> 00:07:18.466
I love walking into random gift shops 🧸

00:07:32.033 --> 00:07:34.066
I was craving kyukatsu 😋

00:07:35.866 --> 00:07:38.933
Dasique was having a huge sale on select items

00:07:38.933 --> 00:07:42.300
The waitlist to get in was 3 hours 💀

00:07:44.733 --> 00:07:47.133
Ice cream for dessert

00:07:47.133 --> 00:07:49.166
This hit the spot 🤤

00:07:51.766 --> 00:07:55.033
On my way to Itaewon

00:08:11.366 --> 00:08:13.433
Met up with my friend Joanne <3

00:08:17.366 --> 00:08:19.466
- ok, we could do 1, 2, 3?

00:08:19.466 --> 00:08:20.866
- white is a vibe

00:08:21.766 --> 00:08:23.000
- this is a little too white, what happened?

00:08:23.000 --> 00:08:25.966
- I know, it's so washed out.

00:08:25.966 --> 00:08:27.633
Wait, it's stilll cute tho

00:08:29.733 --> 00:08:31.766
I was craving a salad today haha

00:08:33.900 --> 00:08:35.566
Just choose the "best"

00:08:35.566 --> 00:08:37.600
wowow so healthy

00:08:38.333 --> 00:08:40.966
Catching up with a long-time friend

00:08:49.600 --> 00:08:52.233
Got a hot latte because I was cold

00:08:52.233 --> 00:08:53.766
Is the photoshop on?

00:08:53.766 --> 00:08:54.333
Yeah

00:08:54.333 --> 00:08:56.133
Oh..hahahaha

00:09:13.166 --> 00:09:14.633
Today's brunch menu

00:09:19.900 --> 00:09:22.033
strawberry rice cake for dessert

00:09:22.033 --> 00:09:24.333
= the best thing I ate

00:09:24.333 --> 00:09:26.600
Seongsu feels like home at this point

00:09:26.600 --> 00:09:29.500
Had to stop by a photobooth to curl my bangs lol

00:09:35.400 --> 00:09:38.400
Overpriced christmas desserts for the pics

00:09:44.300 --> 00:09:47.200
< my 4th grade frenemy
(we hated e/o lmao)

00:09:53.966 --> 00:09:55.933
I'll eat the head.

00:09:56.766 --> 00:09:58.900
This is gory.

00:09:58.900 --> 00:10:00.500
It looks like blood.

00:10:02.733 --> 00:10:05.000
The aftermath

00:10:11.000 --> 00:10:13.600
Stumbled upon this Squid Game pop-up in seongsu

00:10:20.800 --> 00:10:22.733
the double take LMAO

00:10:23.766 --> 00:10:26.200
Entering the game 🙆🏻‍♀️

00:10:27.300 --> 00:10:29.600
LOL this guard is so cute

00:10:34.233 --> 00:10:36.733
In the box, there's a picture of two items.

00:10:36.733 --> 00:10:39.933
We had to find the items from the cabinet in 10 seconds.

00:10:45.300 --> 00:10:48.100
It's still a mystery to me where the other one is LOL

00:10:49.433 --> 00:10:50.766
I still can't find it.

00:10:50.766 --> 00:10:52.433
Squid game energy drink

00:10:52.433 --> 00:10:54.866
photobooth with a ⭕️ guard

00:10:59.266 --> 00:11:01.800
Trying the energy drink

00:11:02.766 --> 00:11:04.733
Wow

00:11:04.733 --> 00:11:05.866
It's good

00:11:08.433 --> 00:11:11.233
Sniffed more perfumes

00:11:14.033 --> 00:11:16.800
Looked around some shops in the area

00:11:21.800 --> 00:11:23.800
boongeoppang in the winter is a must

00:11:32.100 --> 00:11:34.700
These were so good & warm 🥹

00:11:38.666 --> 00:11:41.100
I had so much sugar and caffeine today.

00:11:41.100 --> 00:11:42.766
I'm just overstimulated.

00:11:42.766 --> 00:11:44.366
I had to come back home early.

00:11:44.366 --> 00:11:46.600
It's been over a week since I've landed in korea,

00:11:46.600 --> 00:11:48.700
so I'm going to show you everything that I bought.

00:11:48.700 --> 00:11:50.800
The first thing that I got is this scarf.

00:11:50.800 --> 00:11:52.066
I wear it every day.

00:11:52.066 --> 00:11:54.600
I was kind of hesitant to buy winter clothing items

00:11:54.600 --> 00:11:57.366
since I live in California, and I know that I'm definitely not

00:11:57.366 --> 00:11:59.000
going to be wearing this once I'm back there.

00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:02.900
I also got this hair clip from Offline in Hongdae

00:12:02.900 --> 00:12:05.300
I got this phone case from hongdae.

00:12:05.300 --> 00:12:08.500
This planner is from Artbox. I wanted a 2025 planner.

00:12:08.500 --> 00:12:10.733
It also comes with these cute stickers

00:12:10.733 --> 00:12:12.166
and this mini calendar.

00:12:12.166 --> 00:12:13.866
Every time I see a korean perfume store,

00:12:13.866 --> 00:12:16.400
I like to go in and smell everything.

00:12:16.400 --> 00:12:19.233
I got this perfume from Nonfiction.

00:12:19.233 --> 00:12:21.233
It's in the scent Forget Me Not.

00:12:21.233 --> 00:12:22.800
I also got a ring,

00:12:22.800 --> 00:12:24.900
but I literally lost it the same day I got it

00:12:24.900 --> 00:12:27.633
cuz it was loose on me, so I can't show you that.

00:12:27.633 --> 00:12:30.700
And then from Daiso, I got underwear.

00:12:30.700 --> 00:12:31.866
I have yet to try these on,

00:12:31.866 --> 00:12:33.366
so I don't know if this is actually my size.

00:12:33.366 --> 00:12:34.966
I got 90.

00:12:34.966 --> 00:12:36.500
They had 90, 95, 100.

00:12:36.500 --> 00:12:40.166
I kind of have a big butt, so maybe this is not my size 😼


00:12:40.166 --> 00:12:41.866
I also got these hair pins.

00:12:41.866 --> 00:12:45.333
I only got this because my bangs were bothering me so much

00:12:45.333 --> 00:12:47.266
that day that I had to clip them back.

00:12:49.033 --> 00:12:51.266
These were also from Nyunyu.

00:12:51.266 --> 00:12:54.033
They're so cute. They're little bears.

00:12:54.033 --> 00:12:56.733
And then, I also got these from dasique.

00:12:56.733 --> 00:12:57.866
So (not so) funny story:

00:12:57.866 --> 00:13:02.000
My friend and I, we stood in line to go to the dasique cafe (2nd floor)

00:13:02.000 --> 00:13:05.433
They were having a huge Black Friday sale on the 3rd floor.

00:13:05.433 --> 00:13:08.066
And I had known about this sale cuz I saw it on TikTok,

00:13:08.066 --> 00:13:09.966
but I wasn't really interested in checking it out.

00:13:09.966 --> 00:13:11.866
I was only there for the cafe.

00:13:11.866 --> 00:13:14.366
But, we waited for *3 hours

00:13:14.366 --> 00:13:18.000
just to realize that we were on the waitlist for the wrong thing.

00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.700
So we were like, 'ok, might as well just go in and check it out'

00:13:20.700 --> 00:13:22.900
because we waited for so long for it.

00:13:22.900 --> 00:13:24.833
So, I ended up getting two things.

00:13:24.833 --> 00:13:27.400
I got this blur lip pencil.

00:13:27.400 --> 00:13:30.200
I have a similar one that I'm currently using,

00:13:30.200 --> 00:13:32.400
but it's not from dasique.

00:13:32.400 --> 00:13:34.766
I'm currently using this one from rom&nd.

00:13:34.766 --> 00:13:37.733
And I also got this juicy dewy tint.

00:13:37.733 --> 00:13:42.366
I think I got both of these for less than 4,000 won combined.

00:13:42.366 --> 00:13:45.066
It was so crowded in there that I didn't want to

00:13:45.066 --> 00:13:46.433
hold up the line or anything,


00:13:46.433 --> 00:13:49.100
so I was just moving really quickly through everything.

00:13:49.100 --> 00:13:51.533
And I don't even know if this is my shade.

00:13:51.533 --> 00:13:53.866
(I like the color 🤭)


00:14:09.366 --> 00:14:12.000
I was craving a salad again..

00:14:27.133 --> 00:14:29.633
My friend bought me this for christmas :')

00:14:29.633 --> 00:14:31.900
Pop-up for Light Shop


00:14:31.900 --> 00:14:34.266
(I didn't watch this show)

00:14:36.100 --> 00:14:39.066
I'm trying to copy him lol

00:14:54.766 --> 00:14:57.233
The cheesecake was so good

00:14:57.233 --> 00:15:03.366
Showing my friend pics of me before vs after makeup

00:15:03.366 --> 00:15:05.900
I wanted some authentic korean food

00:15:10.333 --> 00:15:13.000
I loved the vibes of this cafe

00:15:17.900 --> 00:15:19.600
The melon einspanner was really good :P

00:15:33.100 --> 00:15:35.466
It was Christmas Day!

00:15:44.566 --> 00:15:46.966
The prettiest cakes & scones

00:15:50.033 --> 00:15:52.400
< my 6th grade friend :)

00:16:00.966 --> 00:16:05.300
This place is really popular, so the waitlist was hella long

00:16:05.300 --> 00:16:07.933
I heard the truffle is good.

00:16:15.333 --> 00:16:17.800
I liked the truffle one the best 🥯

00:16:18.933 --> 00:16:21.266
It would be nice if someone took a picture from here.

00:16:21.266 --> 00:16:24.266
You should step out and take a picture of me.

00:16:29.233 --> 00:16:31.433
This restroom was so nice.

00:16:31.433 --> 00:16:34.100
It's in a hanok but open to the public

00:16:49.266 --> 00:16:53.200
Got a scented candle instead of perfume

00:16:54.966 --> 00:16:56.966
Stopped by Daiso

00:16:56.966 --> 00:16:59.900
They had these cute stickers

00:17:06.000 --> 00:17:08.133
I feel sick right now.

00:17:08.133 --> 00:17:09.733
Also, the bagels were really good,

00:17:09.733 --> 00:17:11.433
but I think that was my final straw.

00:17:11.433 --> 00:17:14.233
I cannot have any more bread on this trip

00:17:14.233 --> 00:17:15.900
or I'm going to throw up.

00:17:15.900 --> 00:17:18.133
I think I've had bread/pastries for dessert

00:17:18.133 --> 00:17:21.233
twice a day, every single day since I've landed in korea.

00:17:21.233 --> 00:17:26.966
This was the day Squid Game 2 came out

00:17:26.966 --> 00:17:30.666
I got kimbap from 3Bros in seongsu.

00:17:35.333 --> 00:17:39.300
I watched the entire Squid Game season that night

00:17:47.000 --> 00:17:49.866
I felt the fever and chills coming

00:17:51.033 --> 00:17:54.900
I think I slept for 22 hours.

00:17:54.900 --> 00:17:56.500
I didn't even think that was possible.

00:17:56.500 --> 00:18:00.500
I was only awake for 2 hours in between to get medicine

00:18:00.500 --> 00:18:01.866
and then I went back to sleep.

00:18:05.600 --> 00:18:07.966
I'm usually good at taking pills,

00:18:07.966 --> 00:18:09.933
but these are so big.

00:18:26.366 --> 00:18:28.833
I met up with my middle school bestie ^3^

00:18:38.300 --> 00:18:39.500
Is there a right answer?

00:18:39.500 --> 00:18:41.600
They said to pick their real names.

00:18:41.600 --> 00:18:44.433
Copying off of my friend's sheet LOL

00:18:45.866 --> 00:18:47.266
I'll give you a stamp

00:18:48.300 --> 00:18:50.233
또생네컷

00:18:59.066 --> 00:19:00.633
Free stickers :3

00:19:00.633 --> 00:19:02.900
Needed my daily dose of caffeine

00:19:06.866 --> 00:19:08.533
This was my first time at The Hyundai

00:19:11.366 --> 00:19:14.233
We walked around to see what they had

00:19:19.633 --> 00:19:21.566
More cute stickers ~.~

00:19:29.000 --> 00:19:30.833
Won a free perfume sample

00:19:30.833 --> 00:19:32.700
Coffee #2

00:19:32.700 --> 00:19:35.133
Another childhood friend 🤗

00:19:39.233 --> 00:19:40.900
He's everywhere 🥸

00:19:40.900 --> 00:19:43.900
Watched my first play! It was so fun 🤭

00:19:46.733 --> 00:19:49.833
I want to watch more the next time I visit

00:19:49.833 --> 00:19:52.333
Visited a cat cafe 🐈

00:19:53.766 --> 00:19:54.866
Omg so cute..

00:19:54.866 --> 00:19:57.833
Feeding them snacks <3

00:20:14.900 --> 00:20:18.700
Grabbed dinner with a few of my middle school friends!

00:20:30.333 --> 00:20:32.666
I want a cute one, too.

00:20:33.466 --> 00:20:35.733
I want a cute one, not this one.

00:20:35.733 --> 00:20:37.533
Cute- Oh, please.

00:20:37.533 --> 00:20:38.433
One for fun.

00:20:38.433 --> 00:20:39.066
No.

00:20:39.066 --> 00:20:40.000
Please try it on.

00:20:40.000 --> 00:20:42.233
*tries it on*

00:20:44.166 --> 00:20:45.533
How is it?

00:20:48.933 --> 00:20:50.866
photobooth time~

00:21:08.933 --> 00:21:11.600
They said this is the trendy way to take pics now ⁉️

00:21:20.800 --> 00:21:23.800
Gonna do another haul for you guys.

00:21:23.800 --> 00:21:26.000
I feel like money that I'm spending in Korea

00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:27.466
is not real money anymore.

00:21:27.466 --> 00:21:31.000
Korea has really nice study planners.

00:21:31.000 --> 00:21:33.533
This one is a 31 day study planner

00:21:33.533 --> 00:21:38.300
that I think I'm going to use when I am studying for boards in May.

00:21:38.300 --> 00:21:39.866
I got these stickers.

00:21:39.866 --> 00:21:43.400
These three stickers are from the same artist.

00:21:43.400 --> 00:21:45.033
I also got this (notepad).

00:21:45.033 --> 00:21:47.233
I went to Point of View.

00:21:47.233 --> 00:21:50.500
It's a pretty popular stationery store.

00:21:50.500 --> 00:21:53.033
I think both of these are Japanese pens.

00:21:53.033 --> 00:21:55.633
I just got them because the colors are cute.

00:21:55.633 --> 00:21:57.600
They were doing this lucky draw event,

00:21:57.600 --> 00:22:00.333
and I won a perfume sample.

00:22:01.500 --> 00:22:02.433
Mmm~

00:22:02.866 --> 00:22:04.566
I went to Tamburins.

00:22:04.566 --> 00:22:07.900
I got the egg perfume in pumkini.

00:22:09.800 --> 00:22:11.433
This is so cute

00:22:11.433 --> 00:22:13.200
I need to use this sparingly

00:22:13.200 --> 00:22:15.266
I think I need to stop buying perfumes

00:22:15.266 --> 00:22:16.766
cuz I have another one, too.

00:22:16.766 --> 00:22:20.000
I went to Youssoful, and I got Berry Sexy.

00:22:25.700 --> 00:22:26.900
I went to Granhand.

00:22:26.900 --> 00:22:28.200
I didn't get a perfume from here,

00:22:28.200 --> 00:22:30.466
but I did get a scented candle.

00:22:30.466 --> 00:22:33.900
I really like the packaging of this brand.

00:22:33.900 --> 00:22:35.533
I have my name stamped here.

00:22:35.533 --> 00:22:37.433
This one is Kyujang.

00:22:37.433 --> 00:22:40.700
Honestly, this is not something that I would want to spray on myself.

00:22:40.700 --> 00:22:43.733
The top notes are fig leaf, bergamot, pink pepper.

00:22:43.733 --> 00:22:45.366
Mmm

00:22:45.366 --> 00:22:46.633
Fig leaf!

00:22:46.633 --> 00:22:49.200
My friend got me chicken.

00:22:49.200 --> 00:22:52.666
I've been wanting to try this chicken for such a long time.

00:22:52.666 --> 00:22:54.133
Since I don't have a korean phone number,

00:22:54.133 --> 00:22:56.333
I can't order meal delivery services,

00:22:56.333 --> 00:22:58.400
but I've been really really wanting to try this.

00:22:58.400 --> 00:23:02.900
This is the supreme chicken from cheogajip.

00:23:13.433 --> 00:23:16.200
So many cute desserts to choose from ~.~

00:23:36.000 --> 00:23:42.700
💬 Talking about fried chicken

00:23:50.400 --> 00:23:54.500
Bare footed experience, it was so cool

00:23:57.466 --> 00:23:59.833
Each floor had a different theme

00:24:05.566 --> 00:24:08.133
They had some tea 🫖

00:24:10.800 --> 00:24:13.966
So peaceful & therapeutic

00:24:15.233 --> 00:24:18.066
Even the restrooms were on theme

00:24:22.533 --> 00:24:25.700
Washing my feet afterwards

00:24:33.966 --> 00:24:38.133
Checked out a stationery store for their key chains and stickers!

00:24:50.066 --> 00:24:53.233
I was craving jjajangmyeon

00:25:05.466 --> 00:25:08.633
New Year's countdown in the middle of the streets

00:25:11.600 --> 00:25:15.133
Happy New Year 🥳

00:25:16.033 --> 00:25:19.566
Took pictures to capture the 00:00

00:25:21.133 --> 00:25:24.533
Flight attendant recognized me and got me snacks 🫶🏻

00:25:26.666 --> 00:25:29.833
I slept for most of my flight back to LA!
