KIMCHILANDIA CHRONICLES: JEJU ISLAND – CHOCOLATE MUSEUM


Kimchilandia Chronicles – Chronological recounting of Lonewulf’s great Korean adventure

Wow. I have been soooooo busy with my work-school routine that I am recently finding it hard to make time for blogging.

But anyway, since I am currently uploading bulk photos of my Aunt's wedding and his son's christening (rushing this for my dear mama who's so eager to see the pics since she wasn't able to attend because she is in the province), I will squeeze in posting this one entry.

Luckily, this is not too time consuming as there is no long story to tell.


not your ordinary chess set
That pictured above is something that you don't want to play with. Because that set, believe it or not, is food.

It is chocolate molded into chess pieces. And while you're reading this entry, you will see a lot of "cute-ly" styled chocolates, because well, this entry's about the...

CHOCOLATE MUSEUM! Are you ready to salivate?

KIMCHILANDIA CHRONICLES: JEJU ISLAND – TEDDY BEAR MUSEUM


Kimchilandia Chronicles – Chronological recounting of Lonewulf’s great Korean adventure

We kicked off Day 2 of our Jeju sub-trip by having a warm morning with teddy bears.





I used to love cutesy stuff when I was young. Figurines, collectibles, potpourri, stationery, anything scented, stuff toys. However, that affinity disappeared when I started college. I don’t really know why 

I stopped liking cute things maybe because Elbi made me realize that life is tough, and cutesy stuff are just impediments in one’s coping with the bluntness of reality. (huh?)

So anyway, enough of that uhm darkness. I’m here to talk about light, delightful stuff! What’s good about the Jeju Teddy Bear Museum is that it made me get in touch with my old self. Now I’m liking cute stuff again. =)

Move over Michelangelo


I mean, how could you not be joyed when you see these adorable bears...
