Where in Korea have you been to?
<Sangam DMC subway trip>
This week's theme seems to be Seoul :)
On Seoul Metropolitan Rapid Transit Corporation's website,
they have a list of several different travel destinations that you can visit.
Today, we will be looking at "Sangam DMC", which is quite close to our Raon baggage storage.

DMC is a high-tech multimedia and entertainment cluster.
Therefore, Korean broadcasting companies such as SBS, MBC, KBS, CJ, YTN, etc. are all located here!
Their can be seen by the bright lights even after sunset, which create a wonderful night view.
Kudos to everyone working overtime! ;)

This is the DMC main road.
The building on the left is MBC and to its right is the Nuri Dream Center.
During the day it is most likely that many celebrities can be spotted and after sunset there is this amazing night view at DMC.

The next stop is Guryong park.
This artwork is called the "Millenium Eye".
At night all sorts of neon lights are turned one, creating an amazing view.
This artwork is at the center of the park and there is a walking area and fountains surrounding it.

This is Sangam Park.
Interestingly, there is a "toad route" at this park. There are countless toads living in this area and so by walking around the route, you will be able to see numerous toads living in wild nature.
The last stop is the cherry blossom road..
but there weren't any pictures of the road with full bloomed cherry trees.. :(

Try to incorporate these two pictures into one, creating a beautiful scenery.. :P
From research, many workers at DMC are appreciating the scenery with blooming cherry blossoms!
So, DMC is also a great recommendation to go cherry blossom hunting because there won't be as much people as Yeouido!
Other than the route explained above, there are numerous other destinations listed on SMRT's website.
Please refer to the website for spring/summer destinations :D
