Solo in Seoul, Pt. 2: Wearing Hanbok, Goblin Hunting, and Visiting Starfield Library

In my final two days in Korea I made sure to do all the touristy things! I rented a hanbok from Hanboknam to wear at Gyeongbokgung (Gyeongbok Palace), then wandered through Bukchon Hanok Village and Gyeonghuigung (Gyeonghui Palace). I somehow ended up walking six kilometers wearing a hanbok!

I also went to see Samcheongdong, one of the shooting locations for K-drama hit “Goblin”. It was also a great place to shoot an OOTD, and I stumbled upon my first of two thrift shops where I satisfied my shopaholic tendencies.

Finally, after leaving my hotel in Insadong, I ended up in Gangnam at Starfield Library. I was scheduled to fly home in the evening, so maybe I could read to while the hours away? Watch my vlog below to find out what happened.

I hope you’ve enjoyed coming along with me on my trip to Korea through my vlog. It’s not very often I get to travel somewhere new, so I love capturing these places visually. That way I can relive the trip just by watching my vlogs again.
