I currently live in South Korea, and I go to the Express Bus Terminal every so often to shop - clothes there are much, ,much cheap than those in HongDae and DongDaeMun. I definitely recommend it! Be prepared to shop for on hours and spending too much money though. They are cheap, but so many choices makes you buy too much! Another awesome shopping spot is Gangnam Subway station, similar to the Express Bus Terminal, but less dense and little more comfortable for shopping! Happy Shopping!
I'm not sure, but I wish America had night malls/stores. Insomnia gets to me sometimes and I wish I could just go night shopping those times when I'm wide awake at night/early morning!
LOVE the boutiques in Hongdae. Walk off the crowded areas and you'll find streets and streets of cosy cafes and more uniques clothes and handmade jewelry. Really a must-see.
i went to Korea for a month and stayed/studied next to Hongdae so I ended up spending most of my time there. Majority of my shopping was from Hongdae too.. the average price for an average jumper is 15,000won but if you look carefully you can find cheaper stuff.. most expensive would be 30,000won at the most. My best buy was a woollen knit red 'Christmas-y' jumper for 5,000won ^^ the designs and stuff are a lot more unique as its considered to be more 'hipster'
I lived in Seoul for a year at the campus of Ewha Womans University as an exchange student, so we walked around in the area of Ewha and Hongdae most of the time. I liked shopping there, but I also enjoyed Myeongdong a lot.
Omg i just went to Korea a few months ago and I must agree, Ewha Woman's Uni shopping area is much more affordable (got really pretty and good quality clothes there for about S$6-12) than Dongdaemun and Myeongdong. Wished that I had more time there though! A pair of cute socks at Ewha cost about $1.20 and I saw the same pair at Haji Lane for $5.90 (what?!).
highly recommend ewha as the price ranges from 5000-10,000 kr won (probably less than SGD 15 -30) . Ewha is exactly like our Bugis street where items are similar in every shop yet pretty affordable. In korea, try to bargain bravely , no need to ask this price can or not , just tell the shop owner the price u want to pay and if they are rude (most of them are, like 90%) and refused to reduce the price, well then it's up to u whether u are willing to pay the initial selling price. At dongdaemun, the prices like mentioned in the video isn't that cheap, mid range . Here, also can try to bargin but try not to lower the ori price by too much. like mentioned, in korea they r selling their service so bargaining is not widely accepted and the shop owners can be very rude and scold you.
i found the ewha university had the cheapest shopping amongst dongdaemun, myeongdong, and hongdae. another great place for shopping is the express bus terminal. my friend and i spent 4 hours there last time.
I heard there is a store in korea weight the clothes in kg or pounds you want to buy and give you the price of the clothes after knowing the pounds of clothes, do you know where it is?
I went to Ehwa but ditched the hongdae trip to go to Everland. How the trip was like? My money just flew...:P I tried to walk around to get cheap items but...yeah. Just had to buy the clothes! XD
I would prefer to shop at Express Bus Terminal underground market. The clothes, shoes and accessories are more cheaper there. I once bought a shirt and shoes for 5000 won 😆. Myeongdong is the best when you wanna buy cosmetics and street food, so yummy 😆. You'll get lots of free make up here. Some shop will directly give you free mask or cotton when you enter. Love it 😍 Where as Hongdae and Ewha for me is for for entertainment 'coz it has lots of street performance 😊
The mall she went to is more like shibuya mall (in bkk too) tbh... I wouldn't say it is more towards the Platinium mall side... BKK has a more centralised area for you to do shopping so I actually would prefer BKK more hahaha Plus cheap cheap (yes I'm budget)
damn. you're pretty. oh, i already said that 7 months ago. well, you're still pretty. whoever ends up waking up next to you every morning better consider himself a lucky man!
Wow. You're the prettiest Singaporean girl I've ever seen. Full stop. You look Korean by the way. I bet tons of Koreans just started speaking to you in Korean.
Is Korea that cheap?! Cause over here where I live buy a pair of shoes $150 or more Buy a shirt $250 And so on .... Like I would love to go to Korea someday !!
clicknetwork If you really want to shop at a very very CHEAP price you must go to "Divisoria: 168 Mall" its in the Philippines, its very very cheap there, its like heaven for every stylish boys and girls.
Please tell Andrea to not bargain in Korea or Japan, unlike other Asian countries it is considered really rude. Once in a blue moon you might find a nice person but it is seriously so impolite I understand why the lady would yell at her. They can even force you to stop filming/call police saying you are a disturbance/or be violent and rude to you which they have a right to do in their minds because she is a trouble causing foreigner (not that I have anything against Andrea, a bargain is a great thing to have but these are not the places to do it for her own safety.)
ah really? The lady could be even violent? ohh so scary ;_; and I'm used to bargaining in Singapore shiiiii I'm going to korea next year so good to know! ... Aww I thought aunties are supposed to be awesome but if they're mean... :C
not trying to pick a fight but I think it's just being thoughtful to viewers since she & jem made a video on Bangkok and gave fairly positive feedback on it. So for people who follows their videos would be able to relate. she's not bangkok obsessed lol.

I love the parka :O Maybe there's something similar online?
How's the temperature like in this episode? Is it like spring?
I like the brown mac coat she's got on in the last half of the video.. Anyone know where I can get a similar one?
As a woman myself, I normally don't or barely give compliment to girls for their look, but I think you are very pretty.
Ah I'd love to have that convertible necklace ♡ it's a shame there's nothing like that in England.... or online! D:
She is so cool and nice i love you 💖
