Petite France (2PM-RM location) and Gapyeong Shuttle Bus

Bonjour !
We are excited to be here at Petite France since Nichkhun and Taec (scream!!) was here ! with Jae Suk , Haha , Kjk, Jihyo , Kwang Soo, Sok Jin (read in normal tone) and Joongki (bit high pitch tone) keke.

jail in rm :)

handsome Khun !

think this the house where NK nego with KJK

one of coat was hide under the sheet in RM

the tower which Jihyo found the prince coat


u can view the Cheongpyeong lake here

Petite France is also kdrama location for: Beethoven Virus (JGS) , Secret Garden ( Hyun Bin and Ha Ji Won) The character meet each other here.

Ike choe-sun ip-nee-ka?" (Is this the best you can do??)lol

Eifel!

Nice painting

Puppet show but is in Hangul not French hehe -Red Riding Hood

One of musical instrument in one of the building just becoz it reminds me of Rm TaecKhun

They have cafe n such . You also can stay here~ not sure what is the rate tho.

Ticket entrance : 8000 won (we got free Petite Fance pen)
Website : http://www.pfcamp.com/ (hangul) if u want to see the photo or reserve a room

Getting here :
1. Subway ~ Cheongpyeong Station
2. Take a cab to Petite France
or depends on your preference and budget :
1. Subway - Cheongpyeong Station ( bus is just outside the station)
2. Take Shuttle bus - 5000won ,it will go to tourist attractions in Gapyeong u just need to show your ticket ( valid for 1 day). Advantage you can relax and take photo from inside the bus.
I think if u go to 2 places or more this shuttle bus is worth it. But if u only went to 1 place eg nami island only or Petite France only, better take a cab( think the fare from and to subway is still gonna be around 5000won ) and u will save time.
The shuttle bus has its own schedule so it is better if u come early in the morning .Make sure you take the bus brochure as it has schedule time for your reference.
The subway journey from city itself is 1hr.

Bus Route : Gapyeong Terminal -Jarasum- Gapyeong Station terminal -Nami Island Geumdae-ri -Bokjangri - Petite France - Homyeong ri - Cheongpyeong Terminal - Cheongpyeong Station - Imchogyo Ap- Ankharvarman - Morning Calm


the bus

We choose to stop at Cheongpyeong subway station coz we want to go to Petite France first. The bus we ride went from Cheongpyeong to Morning Calm ( the last station , i thought we could just skip the place but the driver said it will resume operation at 1pm . it is 12:30 noon that time, so we still have to get off the bus.
Morning Calm is a garden . It require ticket entrance (so since we don't have any budget and it is not spring so we just want to stay outside till 1pm ). Ahjussi ~ conductor bus is very nice to us and offer to take our photo..he is so nice that i feel bit guilty as he ask u not going in?? " No". Told him Petite France and Nami only. but after that i bought some herb ( for body aches and show to him) lol memang lenguh pun.(konon tak masuk pun beli barang tau)

morning calm

After that bus went straight to Petite France coz only us in the bus and ahjussi also get off the bus and show Petite France to us. Thank u so much.
The next trip schedule from Petite France is either 13:50 or 15:50 so we spend 2 hours there before we went to Nami Island. --> Nami in Summer n Winter erk end of Winter
The last bust from Nami island is 18:15 , our ferry departs on 18:00 it tooks around 15 minutes so we miss the last bus(they are punctual...so we have to take taxi to Gapyeong Station (around 2700 won)
haha yep yep the one we could save more.

Photo from the bus :

this is lake or ice rink ?? quarter of the lake is ice

FNC Entertainment new building

I listen to all music but for band i will say CNBLUE is one of my favorite, maybe not enough to remember their birth date but enough to purchase their albums
Once i knew FNC is in same area with JYPE i really want to take a look at the building because

1. No one has put any direction to go to FNC.
2. Who knows i might see my fav Jonghyun ??? lol

the address i obtained fr google is 111 Cheongdam-dong , Gangnam - gu i cant even find this using google maps.So i just ask my fav Dunkin Donut staff -do they ever see this buiding ( i screen capped the image ) the staff try and call their number for direction (aren't she nice) but another younger staff heard bout it and draw the map from me. Fnc building is just 2 blocks away and is near to her house. yeay !!

I just walk and try my luck .. coz the direction is go straight 2 blocks and turn right till u see FNC.
I almost think this might not be the correct way( i might detour a lil but ) until i saw Jonghyun in between the building !! omg it is CNBLUE large banner .He saves me ! haha.

Met 2 Japanese Boice here so we help to take each other photo. The disadvantage is no cafe around to wait for oppar lol. it is just around 10-15 minutes from Jype

Tq Jonghyun

Cafe series 2 - De Chocolate Coffee ,That winter the wind really blows

I just watched ep. 15 of twtwb It is mellow drama, i cried in each episode . Oh twtwb full name is That Winter , The Wind Blows starring Seong Hye Gyo , Jo In Sung. I always love Song Hye Gyo and watched all of her drama. They are both beautiful and good actors

Hangang Park

I realise episode 11 of twtwb shoot at Hangang Park. The scene involves Moo Chul n Jin Sung when Jin sung knew Moo Chul add her sis debt to Oh Soo acct. Jin Sung beaten up by Moo Chul in the end.
Not too bad right... Kim Bum was here?? He is one of F4 !! kekeke
The thing is we find this park by coincidence..we plan to go 63 building but it is so far away. This park is closer.

I like the design because it reminds me of Putrajaya:)
