I got rid of my bangs. What do you think?
Excited excited
I’m on my way to eat lunch to celebrate the fact that I got up(?)
[Came in randomly but apparently this is a recommended place by Mr. Matsuda]
Cheese bacon sounds good, too
Even though I don't know what it is...
(Metal = iron plate)
For me
I'm so curious about this one!!
The rest of the heart
‘Kokoronokori’ (Something like the heart, It's the flesh between the heart and the liver)
[Ordering]
Iced water please!
Staff: iced water!
2 iced water please!
Staff: 2 iced water!
Staff: Sure thing!
[What a cute staff ;)]
[Unboxing the beans]
[If you order, they grill it directly on an iron plate like this]
[What did I order?]
The answer is cheese bacon
It's a very unfamiliar visual
[How does cheese bacon taste?]
- Just try it! - :D
It’s just normal!
Is that the taste we already know? [It's a mixture of cheese and bacon]
[Sea Urchin Roe sushi that my friend ordered also came out]
[They cooked it on the spot, so the food came out one after another]
[Studying the menu]
(Completed)
I’m gonna order this
leftovers [Our food that keeps coming out]
the most anticipated!
[How does it taste?]
[The chef kept making us laugh while we were eating]
He told her “ki-yeo-woe” which means cute
He said I’m cute,
So I replied “I know!” [Life is about living with confidence]
- It's delicious! - Is it good? Isn't it salty?
Yes it’s good!
[So tasty!]
It's the best out of all the things I ate yesterday and today
[I highly recommend yakisoba!!]
[Next, grilled bacon skewers]
[The skewers taste better than the grilled ones]
[Responses for the chef who is looking forward to the taste reaction]
Kim-tteok (dried laver rice cake) [The name of the menu was really Kim Tteok]
I am the first Korean Kim Tteok reviewer
(I think this is the most delicious skewer restaurant)
Oishii-desuka? (Is it good?)
[So good, eating so fast]
[But... One of this made me so full..]
Done with the meal!
[I'll turn off the camera now]
[Viewers: ???]
It feels like Seoul Station Shinsegae Dept. Store
[So crowded] Not Seoul Station, I meant Myeong-dong's Shinsegae
In the department store, foreigners get the 5% off after the passport check
[Make sure to get this for your shopping! So cute!]
[My bang is too long...]
[Guess what I got? HAUL coming up at the end of this video]
(Osaka Pass: pass for metro, bus, and sightseeing spots within Osaka) [I got this Osaka Pass, but I couldn't use the most out of it]
Wow, I'm in a Japanese bus!
[Taking public transportation during a travel.. Somehow nerve-wrecking!]
We're finally out of Nanba!
[Anything would excite these travelers]
Where are we going?
Such a cute street!
Such a long line though...
[A big obstacle after a fun walk]
Should we go to that vintage shop?
[Moving to the vintage shop that my friend wanted to go]
(Sad, but let it go) Supreme... Wanted to go, but such a long line!
[The vintage shop that my friend wanted to go to]
[It had a lot of cool brands!]
(I'm instead obsessing over the flowers...)
Such a cute exterior!
[I heard that people nowadays go to luxury brand vintage shops, and I think it's worth a visit]
(I couldn't film inside, so not many clips...) [I didn't get anything because nothing really stood out for me, but it was fun looking around]
[I got into a random taxi, and it was a lace taxi! So cute]
So cool how the Japanese taxi doors open automatically
[I filmed so much like this but...]
[Moto Coffee that we wanted to go was already full]
So cute!
[But there are other cafes and restaurants in the area!]
[So you should check out other cafes as well, the views are gorgeous everywhere...]
[I took a seat, and what a relaxing view...]
[Found myself being filmed]
[Heheh]
[The camera is traveling with me]
[And...]
Rejuvenating the lips
[It's always nice to say hi to those in the river cruise]
So cute
Can you see the river?
[Sweets view = LOVE]
[It tastes so good, perhaps thanks to the river view?]
[Such a relaxing time in Osaka]
This must be vegan, it tastes like...
[shall we say..it has a healthy taste?!]
Danggeun - carrot (?)
a bit legendary..
legendary epic humor..haha
A song I used to listen to when I was a middle schooler in Canada is playing
Right it's so good
- Is it nice? - Nope
[Yet, it hasn't captivated my friend's appetite..]
[still a must-go place in Osaka when you are here because of the vibe!]
Where are we heading?
Umeda!
Umeda! Umeda! Umeda!
Umeda where?
Umeda.. tower!
Yeap haha the Floating Garden!
Floating Garden hehehe
[We are going to Umeda Floating Garden ..^^]
We got 30% discount since we have Amazing Pass
[Umeda Floating Garden was indeed crowded]
I can see Japan at a glance?
(I'm quite stoic] Not necessarily Japan but Osaka haha
[After getting off from the elevator, we ride another escalator!]
I took photos in front of the observatory in the past
[Can't help taking photos here..]
[There's a skywalk when you come outside!]
[A place where you can walk like this and enjoy the night view]
[In the meantime, a LED beam from my hands..lol]
Even my clothes are glowing right now
OMG even my teeth HAHAHA
So pretty
[Unintentionally validating my healthy smile]
We are back to shopping in HEP FIVE ~
(This is not Korea)
Oh that's pretty!
[My friend was worried if it's too much but it was cool and cute..♥]
I wanted something that felt a bit Japanese and I've got it here
I got this hoodie ~
(point♥) Cat ears are the point here
[A great find at HEP FIVE mall]
Heard that there's a ramen place in that building so we're going there
Yodobashi-Umeda!
I'm here for a Japanese ramen ♥
Here for this one ~
[Discovered through extensive exploration on blogs]
[I ordered spicy ramen and gyoza]
It's apparently spicy
It's a bit spicier than Shin ramyun (Korean noodle brand)
[My friend can't handle spicy food, so she ordered the non spicy one]
Bon appetite~
Hmm~ it is a bit spicy
Is it really spicy?
[A bit of kick to it ~ instead of intensely spicy]
[And gyoza...well it's just so lovely]
(Must-go restaurant!)
Hidden spot!
[If I put my mind to it, I can find good stuff hehe]
The time really flew by today
It's already past 9 o'clock
[Let's enjoy the ramen for now]
We can visit again next time!
[I will probably crave this ramen again]
(I guess it was really delicious..)
[Tied up my hair neatly]
It's so nice and clean. So yummy
Yeah I agree
The least salty Japanese dish we've had so far
Yeah and it's not heavy
(Could be the last) Good choice for a Japanese meal
[It would be a shame if I sleep right away , so I changed my clothes and rushed out!]
Last night~
[It seemed like someone from Korea was busking so I decided to sit for a while!]
[Thanks to it, it turned into a delightful walking time ♥]
Last night
Snacks from the convenient store
[I'm sure I bought a creme brulee but...!]
[Hopefully I can eat it today, right?]
[In the end, it crumbled when I bit it!]
Hmm nice!
How can Japan has these things in convenient stores?
[Really the best restaurant in Japan could be convenient stores]
(Nice, right?)
It's ice cream!
This one, the ice cream is way more delicious
Ah I thought I wouldn't do shopping in Japan .. haha
Shopping spree!
I guess I really spent a lot on Sanrio
Sanrio was our first day shopping spot
[As long as I'm happy~]
[Jiyeon who's back in Korea]
Even though I thought I shouldn't shop too much this time in Japan
[Still I managed to resist and did minimal shopping] As I look, I end up buying one or two things continuously
On the very first day, I went to the the must-visit Sanrio store
[I even kept the shopping bag since it was cute TT]
They even gave us this
I picked Kuromi!
Anyway, let me share what I got at Sanrio!
The first one is..!
Isn't this so cute?
This one is the one I had already
[previous Kuromi] Kuromi originally looks like this
But I went there and
Should I say different editions?
There were many Kuromis with modified clothes and designs
This one I couldn't pass by. It was so cute
Fairy Kuromi!
Fairy princess!
She's even dressed like an angel..
She even has wings..♥
Couldn't pass her by
If you take a closer look..
The blush! She's wearing a pink blush
And it's glittery
So this looked super cute
I didn't have much intention of buying toys
But I couldn't pass her by
The second one is, I shopped in Sanrio a lot little by little
So I didn't think there would be anything to buy but
There were ones I never saw before
This Kuromi also, not just any Kuromi but a baby!
Baby Kuromi♥
Couldn't pass by this one also
I never saw this one in Korea
It's so cute..♥
This one is a hand sanitizer case and it was so cute
I wanted a hand sanitizer case that was cute like this
You know, at Bath and Body Works?
They have cute cases shaped like animals
People were attaching them to their bags and all
I'm gonna put a hand sanitizer in here and attach this to my bag
So cute!
Apparently it was Sanrio's 50th anniversary
[Stickers with Sanrio characters collaborated] There were stickers with Cinamoroll mixed with Hello Kitty, so I got them as a keepsake
Stickers to put on things like laptops
(50 times cuter) It says 50th anniversary
I bought about this much in Sanrio
I searched for a list of things to buy in Japan
And it said there are quite a few brands that are cheaper than Korea
There were Dior and Celine among them
I was taking a look in Celine.. haha
I don't have a lot of basic necklaces
There was a basic silver necklace with just the basic logo in Celine
I really wanted it so I compared the prices
The price was almost 200,000 won (about $150) cheaper
[With all the benefits the price difference was almost 150,000~200,000 won!]
I got a very basic necklace
When you buy something pricier like a bag
Or something, the difference was much bigger
[Depending on the price, the difference can be 400K~500K so good to compare!] If you shop such things and go to Japan, would be nice to buy there
Oh, as for tax refunds, after shopping you go straight to the 7th floor of the department store
Show them your receipt and passport
there was an option to get cash in Yen on the spot
or getting the money back through the credit card you used
I got it back in cash
I also went to the HEP FIVE mall
there was a store that sold like rock chic… goth…?
It was a store selling totally Japanese style clothing
so I went in because it was exactly what I was looking for
and it was totally my style
[Something you can only get in Japan] They had a lot of items that Japanese idols might wear
This hoodie is super baggy
and the sales person told me baggy styles are the trend in Japan
The key feature is
this cat ear. Can you see?
[A lot of people wear cat ears these days!] My favorite it this chain
I’ll wear this next time when it gets cold
Finally, on the last day I went to Don Quijote
There are a lot of blog posts about things to buy there
so I got a lot from those lists when I went to Japan a while back
[Most of them are sold in Korea these days] but I didn’t feel like it was worth the hype
So I decided to get stuff I can buy with the Yen I had left
As you know, there are a ton of different KitKat flavors in Japan
(Disappeared)
No wonder, I thought something was missing
[Realized KitKat was missing while talking]
I went to the nail salon and the nail tech told me
she went to Japan and bought me lemon salt-flavored KitKats
and they were so good
So I thought I should get different types of KitKats when I go to Japan
so when I went to Don Quijote, I decided I’m just going to get a bunch of KitKats
[First flavor- Sake]
As soon as I saw this I was like wow I need to get this
I tried one just now cause I was so curious
it tasted weirdly like Sool-bbang (fermented Korean bread)
it’s chocolate-y but it has that slightly bitter alcohol taste so I liked it a lot
[Second flavor- Chestnut]
I also tried this earlier cause I couldn’t wait
and this was the best tasting chocolate I’ve ever had
[Should have bought them a long time ago…❤️] I liked this so much I just got six more bags from Coupang
It tastes a bit like BaBamBar (ice cream) and just really good
[Third flavor- Strawberry Cheesecake]
This tastes a bit like
you know Pocky right? Like the strawberry Pocky
It tastes exactly like that
Like adding strawberry to white chocolate?
[Jiyeon’s fave, chestnut KitKat!] This is absolutely delicious
So now for food other than KitKat
I got this matcha powder for matcha lattes from my trip before
I bought this and
this was so good
Japan is known for its green tea
So I got this as well
With cosmetics, it's mostly all available in Korea
Shu uemura eyelash curler
And I just got this Nivea lip balm in cherry red
And on the last night, my legs and feet were feeling really heavy
[Was my first time using Cooling Gel Pad thanks to my friend!]
It didn't feel heavy and it felt so refreshed
[Brought a similar brand at the duty-free store]
This is similar, you apply it on your calves and feet
With this when you apply it...
[You get these residues from your feet?!]
I bought it because my feet and legs often feels heavy
I’ll eat one more
[Is KitKat my favorite from this travel..?!]
Thanks for joining me on my trip to Osaka♥
