Sooooo….it finally happened to me.
Earlier on my way to Sinchon I was googling the way to walk to Edae coz I wanted to eat at the usual cheese ramyun place and was too lazy to turn back to the subway station and this came up among the search list https://rabiatulindramaland.wordpress.com/2016/06/16/day-118-hongdae/amp/
Intrigued, I started searching for ‘Hongdae Cult Scam’ and immediately a lot of similar results dating back from 2014 till 2017 came up. They all talked about how koreans (most of the time in pairs) approached them and asking firstly if you knew where this or that place was. A korean asking a foreigner for directions is a hilarious matter. Like seriously, even if they are fluent in English they just wont. I have korean friends, I know.
Anyway, I was walking aimlessly in Hongdae. Originally wanted to watch some street performers, but they got chased away by the restaurant owner in which they always performing in front of. The owner claimed that the people that crowded around there obstructing his business. Poor guys just wanted to perform and hoping that they get scouted to be celebrities sighhhh. So, back to the story, was walking aimlessly towards Seoul Kebab place. I was having a massive headache deciding if I should just go back and sleep (damn jetlags
