The most delicious ice cream, Remicone

Ice cream is the most common thing for Summer, while you have a time to visit Seoul in summer you'll find so many multiple street-side vendors that offer you an ice cream, i already tried so many soft ice cream in Seoul. But my best choice is.......REMICONE!!! Waaa...i never tried ice cream as delicious as that. 

Actually i know this place when i watched "The Return of Superman" you guys know that variety? Yes.. you must know the triplets (daehan, minguk, manse) they are sons of actor song il kook. In one of their episode, they visit ice-cream shop and they eat it really deliciously!! So, i did some research to find the location.

This is Remicone vendor looks a like

Remicone is an ice cream parlor that looks like a laboratory on wheels. I like their concept. The most recommended and popular ice-cream in here is Thunder Bomb. It's like simple vanilla soft serve with fluffy cotton candy, and in the top there is a thunder sign. For the first time i think the thunder sign is just for decoration. But....it's vanilla chocolate, wow!! and the taste is really delicious.

I don't really know why but the taste of soft-ice cream in remicone is really different from the other soft-ice cream in another place, or another ice cream that i ever tasted. The kind of creamy, sweet, and such a perfect combination when you mixed the ice cream with the cotton candy. That's perfect! i recommended you guys this one. The most ice cream you must try!!

Thunder Bomb!!!
and look of the thunder sign that i talked before LOL 

How to get there?

Ok! i will give you some direction to reach remicone. Hope it will helpful for you. First, you must find sinsa station (subway line 3) and take exit 8. From exit 8 just go straight until you reach It's Skin on your left, then turn left! Just go straight during on your way to remicone you will pass LINE store(i like this place lol) and so many cafe.
I give you 2 option :
1. Just walk around 15-20mins from it's skin until you reach FOSSIL store. Cross the street and go to the alley in between, make a left in the intersection. Walk straight and you'll find Remicone on your left.
2. after the FOSSIL store you will find KM PLAY. Cross the street and walk to the alley in between. Just go straight and you will find Remicone on your left.

How to travel to Seoul alone!!

Hii everyone..
I come back with a new experience. ok! so finally i am on a summer holiday, and 2weeks ago i just got back from Seoul, South Korea. And..alone!! actually i have some friends at Seoul but, like you know they can't accompanied me all day. we just meet like 1 or 2 days. it took 10days of my vacation. and oh! i know someone from twitter, and she already in Seoul before my arrival and they were on summer program. So, she also accompanied me during my vacation.

Actually this is my very first time to travel overseas alone. yes, i had been visit Seoul, but in the difference situation. Last year I visited it for summer program, it means i had A LOTS of friends, and i have team leader who ready to guide me. but now, yeah i am completely alone.

first of all, after did the immigration and baggage things, the one i searched for is how to get prepaid sim card. Before my departure i already did some research about prepaid sim card, and from the web said, i could get it on Seoul station and myeongdong at Premium Travel Center. But i choose at seoul station, because on my way to my guest house, i had to transit at Seoul Station. so i decided to buy a prepaid sim card at seoul station. But you can also get it at CforU, 7evelen, GS25, or another convenience store. but believe me, the staff in there really bad in english. So, i decided to choose premium travel center. 

Finally i found the place (the location in b2 floor), if you have problem to found the place, just ask the staff at the exit gate, she pretty good in english. and the staff at premium travel center is really good in english, they will help you to registered your card, and the one you need is just paid the card :) and prepare your passport, because they will ask your passport. The simcard in seoul is very expensive. Because i am using iPhone6 so i need nano card. It cost 40.000won and just for 1GB orzzzzz 1GB for 10days is really not enough for me. And you can recharge it, 16.500won for 1GB. SO....I GOT 2TIMES RECHARGE BECAUSE 1GB IS REALLY NOT ENOUGH FOR 10DAYS :( so it cost 60.000won for me just for sim card.  

And, now the guest house. I choose Mom House (that actually owned by Super Junior kyuhyun's mother) and i really like that place. It's a quite expensive just for guest house but it really worth. Why? Bacause the staff is really good in english, the place is really neat, easy to find, breakfast and wifi are include, the room also have TV, and they have the amazing location. I love the location. It located in Myeongdong, and you just need 10minues walk to reach Myeongdong Street, the heaven place for tourist LOL, and around Mom House you will find 7eleven, McDonalds, OliveYoung, CforU, Tous Less Jours, and it really close with subway station. I love this place.

As you can see the beautiful view from the Mom House's rooftoop

The one that you must did before your departure is do some research, and make some plan. I already make some plan for what will i do when I am at seoul, and search too "How to go to ........." on google, and if you don't remember it just print it and bring them with you.

But, the only reason why i choose Seoul for my holiday, is because of this.....................

  Super Junior - SuperShow6 Encore Concert

Yes, it's like Indonesia proverb "sekali menyelam, satu dua pulau terlampaui" I already addicted with them since 2011 or 2012 and the one of my goals is watching their concert at Seoul (also my favorite country) on that day i came with my friend, Fio (already mention her at first) i know her at twitter, because she also came to ss6 encore, and alone. AH! we already hang out on my first day. we hang out at Yesung Cafe "Mouse Rabbit"

The concert was super AMAZING!!! i attended their concert when they visit Indonesia, but its a very different. watching concert at Seoul give me a different feels. And also new experience. for the first time watching concert overseas. And the one i compare with my country is "Indonesia fans and indonesia concert is really sucks" LOL sorry to say that but i am not lying. 

And also, Super Junior have promotion for their new album Devil, and the time of their comeback is when i was at Seoul, so felling really happy!!!!

 Here's their new CD. yes! i bought 3 of them lol

and here..i meet Super Junior members when they had press con at SMTown COEX. 
Honestly that day i met Leeteuk, Heechul, Kangin, Siwon, and Yesung
but really sad i just got heechul picture.

And i had a little reunion with my Korean Friends from my last summer program, so its really good to see them again. Here........They are the beloved people who always accompanied me during my vacation. 
 My beloved, eonni and oppa!
 Here...the people that i know from twitter!! They are really nice and kind Fio and Manda
Really lucky to meet them, and guess what? They also from Binus (but binus high school)
and they also lived in Tangerang. LOL what a accidental! 

OK! that's all for my solo trip at Seoul, hope it can give you a little knowledge how to travel at seoul. If you have any question about Seoul-things you can ask me through my twitter or email
