Korea Trip part 10 - Seoul, Insadong, Shopping

Little Shopping Tip:
If you ever go to the market places (usually you can tell from the hand written signs or if it's not a mall) BARGAIN!!!!
I bargained a lot at the market-ish places. Such as the underground terminal, where I bought some clothes.
All you have to say is like "Oh this is too expensive... can you give me a discount?" - In Korean: "EE-guh nuh-moo-biss-ah-yo, jom-kka-kka-joo-seh-yo"
Sometimes they will lower the price for you or not. Just depends on the person you are dealing with. But it's a good way to save money.

Insadong can be pretty expensive since a lot of tourists go there since its the place that sells a lot of old traditional Korean things. SamJiGil was pretty expensive, so I only bought 2 rings from there. And in Insadong I bought some souvenirs for my friends which was actually quite cheap since I just bought little key chain things.

GangNam GoSa Bus Terminal (Basement) is like a market like place. It's a great place for shopping!

This is a brilliant film.I went to Seoul in November, and especially liked Myeongdong. Didn't see Insadong, but maybe next time!

@LeeClaxton thanks! glad you like it! Insadong is a really nice place. It`s really touristy though so a lot of the stuff there is quite expensive.

HI, I'm actually from Toronto and lived in tokyo for 6 years and now live in Italy. I really wanna go to Korea. Your videos are so great and would help people to think about where to go and what to eat when they go to Korea. I would like Korean to be the next language I learn.

[memechoi]

@pinkfuzz80 cool! I've never been to Europe or Japan. I'd really like to go to both places one day. My cousins are half Italian so I know only a couple of words in Italian and I learned some random Japanese phrases from watching anime and dramas. I'm glad you find my videos useful. ^.^

@persianOUTKAST Lol, yeah I think it's also called that. I did go to the food court but was only passing through it to get to another place, so I didn't have time to pull out my camera and start filming.

the gangnam terminal mall is also known as "Shinsegae Mall" right? b/c i think i've been there ... you should've shown video of the food court, totally insane & huge.
