Korea Seoul Mall Times Square

15 September 2011

Times Square

In the late afternoon I decided to head to Times Square. Every asian city has a shopping mall called times square.
I didnt do any shopping here, just wandered about amazed at the underground connecting tunnels that go forever.
The actual mall is up market and very quiet compared to the underground parts that connect the stations.

On the way back I checked out the food sections in the basements of various department stores just as they were closing, things go for cheap at this time, but I had no way of reheating anything which was unfortunate...so I had a custard filled goldfish.

Tomorrow I am leaving for home, which will take a long time, I get to look at Incheon airport (worlds best airport), and a 3 hour stopover in Tokyo.
In Incheon I have no 'status' so I will have to slum it like a backpacker. Qantas need to lift their game and get a deal with someone here so I can eat free stuff!

Inside times square. It had a great food court but unfortunately its one where you pay at a central cashier and get a vibrating disc, and there was only Korean writing at the cashier so I couldnt order.

This is an interactive avenue of stars, you put your hand in someones hand print in the concrete and the display changes to suit. They were all Korean stars but girls were very excited to put their hand where someones hand once was.
