I only wanted it for 48 hours, and I only had a physical card. When I arrived at the airport, the exchange store was already closed. The next day, I had to take a bus back to the airport to pick it up, and I also took care of my SES application. In 48 hours (three days), I visited N Seoul Tower, Hanboknam Bukchon Hanok Village Store, Sea Life Coex Aquarium, and Lotte World. Even though I went to Lotte World on a Friday, it was still very crowded. It took 1.5 hours to queue for just one ride, which was incredibly frustrating. I later found out that Korean children were on winter break. I highly recommend visiting the Sea Life Coex Aquarium; you can spend 1.5-2 hours there. I had originally planned to visit the Seoul Sky Observatory, but when I got there, I found out the ticket was only 10% off. I had researched it and then put it aside, not checking again before my trip, so I had to give up on that attraction and went to Lotte Mart instead.

This time, Teacher Kim Yu Jeong conducted our color test. My mom and I don't understand much Korean, so we arranged for a Chinese translator (I heard there's a Cantonese translator before 4 PM!). This time, I found the colors that suit me best. Personally, I think the most useful part was the makeup choices and hair/nail colors 🤤💕. I would recommend friends to come and try it!

GS25 convenience store products are an excellent option for a quick and flavorful meal. The Budae Jjigae ramen and instant stew packs offer a satisfying and spicy Korean taste that's easy to prepare. The noodles cook quickly, and the broth base boasts a savory flavor with a hint of the sausage and spices characteristic of Korean army stew. These products are incredibly convenient for busy individuals who want a fast meal without much fuss. The packaging is practical and easy to store. Overall, GS25 products excel in taste and convenience, providing great value for everyday meals. 👍🍜
