My Seoul Trip Itinerary

before i started showing you guys my itinerary, just wanna let you know that this itinerary will contain a lot of BTS related spots (i am an ARMY yes!). yeah, so this is not some typical tourist trip, i actually go to Seoul because i want to know more about my favorite, and biggest-boyband-in-the-world's culture, what's the lifestyle there like, and of course tracing back to places where they have visited and where they have been in Seoul. it was such a great experience, i would never forget it. such a happy place to be.

so i went there almost a year ago with my whole whole family, by whole i mean my married brother also brought his wife and 2 kids along. haha, so it's been like a family vacation too, and in the end they all become addicted to BTS too! haha, my bad, i turned my whole family into an ARMY.

it was a very short trip, only 4 days, we flew from Surabaya (my hometown in Indonesia) then transit in Singapore (because we flew with Singapore Airlines-don't worry it was a promo!), and then Seoul.

so here is my itinerary, i will explain the details and photos maybe in my next posts!
