We took the metro to Gangnam station Line 2 and came out of exit 6. There are so many bus station outside of exit 6, we don't know which to go.. We crossed the road and went to the middle lane bus stop, oops there were no signboard for bus 5001-1. After getting some information from a kind Korean guy, we saw the bus left in front of our eyes! ** haizz** We actually need to walk further down of exit 6, the stop is right in front of Krispy Kreme. So have to wait another 20minutes for the bus. Metro + bus = about 2 hours journey
We made it in time for the first folk performance, Farmers Music and Dance at 11:30am. Well, it's actually the one and only performance we watched that day, thanks to the rain O.o Other interesting performance they usually do is the traditional wedding ceremony, acrobatics and equestrian feats... that's how our title came in , Raining Korean Folk Village =(
Love Flowers =)))
We enjoyed our Korean food in the traditional marketplace with the nature sound of rain. hehe
Yums to the beef bulgogi and kalguksu
a special dish we tried: naengmyeon (cold buckwheat noodles, winter dish)... err.. don't quite like the taste, the noodle is so hard to chew, and the soup is super sour..
The traditional marketplace
Mask play exhibition
Despite the rainy day, we had a good time exploring the village in raincoats =P the village houses were really old and 'real' villagers were placed in some houses doing chores (cutting bamboo, making rice candy & etc) ooh and even real animals in the barn too, chickens, donkeys, dogs...
P: I wish to stay here, in this nice little cottage. See, i can do house chores too >>>
A: Okay, get a job from KFV then =P
Kimchi!
It was worth the visit! Try to allocate at least half day's time here =)
