Continuing on the BTS related places we visited in Seoul.

📍Hybe Insight (permanently closed)
A “multiplex cultural space” aiming to showcase the company’s various perspectives surrounding music and celebrate HYBE’s music, artists and fans.

We visited Hybe Insight thrice. First exhibit which is also my personal favorite, was Permission to Dance. They showcased pictures from their PTD tour in the US and this is where I personally saw Min Yoongi's iconic sound check pic which wrecked all us all.

Second visit was their Proof Exhibition (October 2022) and third one was more of a mix among all other Hybe artists (January 2023). They had TXT, Enhypen, Seventeen and Hwang Min Hyun among others.

Hybe Insight is currently hosting a portrait exhibit of HYBE artists, “The Daydream Believers” which is scheduled to run until August 27, 2023. We also had the chance to check this exhibit recently and it wasn’t as engaging as the previous one. It was a good opportunity though for other Hybe artists as they were given the chance to be showcased as well. For this visit, I got myself some Seventeen photo cards and merch as I have just recently started liking them ever since I watched Jun’s drama.

John and I are creatures of habit. We tend to gravitate towards things and places that are familiar. Saves us the stress of planning, navigating and of course, getting lost.

We reward ourselves by traveling at least twice a year (during May/ June, to celebrate our wedding anniversary and birthdays and during last week of December to first week of January, for our year end travel).

Imagine how hard it was when lockdown ensued due to COVID. At the onset, we didn’t realize it was going to be that bad.
We had our 2020 travels planned - April 2020, we were scheduled to travel to Seoul as I won a BTS concert ticket for Map of the Soul and June 2020 was supposedly for our Japan travel.

January and February 2020, both months passed by quickly then came March. All travel plans went downhill since then. Imagine my heartbreak when they announced the cancellation of the BTS concert. I was inconsolable - all my preparation gone to p**f - I had five stadium-ready-clear bags (LOL), confirmed flight tickets, hotel accommodation in Myeongdong and near Jamsil (where the concert was supposed to take place) plus I was physically, mentally and spiritually ready to meet Jk and Suga.

When Seoul’s sky finally opened for tourists, guess what we did?

So this was me, paying homage to anything BTS related when we finally set foot in Seoul last June 2022 (and when we returned in October).

📍K-Star Road and GangnamDol
The Gangnamdolls are placed along 1 km section of the road connecting Apgujeong Rodeo Station and Cheongdam crossroads. GangnamDol is a combined word of “Gangnam”, “idol” and “doll”. The character dolls represent the 17 K-pop idols such as 4Minute, Super Junior, 2PM, FT Island, SHINee, Miss A, CNBLUE, TVXQ!, Girls’ Generation, EXO, AOA, BTS, B1A4, VIXX, INFINITE, KARA and BLOCK B.

Hi, we’re husband and wife, John and Ma-an, pawparents to Princess and Duchess 🐾.

Join us as we navigate and enjoy life - one bite (to say we love eating is an understatement) and one flight (we like to travel every now and then, especially when the opportunity comes) at a time.
