similar to PMQ, Hong Kong or
Red House Mall, Ximending, Taipei
definitely my favourite spot for
souvenir shopping
over Lotte Department Store /
Lotte Mart / Nan Dae Mun
not to said those places are bad
but this is my kind of place to
shop for souvenirs
and Insa-dong is
filled with stalls selling
those mass-produced
magnet, keychain, etc
you know who they are
if you are looking for
something unique for
a special someone
this is definitely worth
dropping by
found ya
a good new year gift
by the way
bought these for my Pa
along the souvenir street in Insa-dong
10,000 Won each
my sis was complaining how
expensive and not worth it
i know these are relatively
expensive compared
as compared to the
a-dozen-for 10k-item
well… beauty lies in
the eyes of the beholder
and these are of
really auspicious meaning
and i am darn pretty sure
these are not
Made-in-YiWu (China) but
something local and
probably handcrafted too
if years of experience
have not at least
taught me to tell
Chinese and Korean crafts apart
i should have right away
bang my head on the wall
now..
where’s the wall?
