I remember Day 10 to be a rush day for us. The weather forecast said that it will rain from 2PM till the next day. I remember checking the forecast the moment, praying it may change haha! But it didn't, so I quickly woke my family up so we could start the day earlier! Got to maximize the day before the rain comes!
We took a train to Konkuk University where the popular Common Ground is! That's the place where you see all the cool and catchy blue containers pictures! It was outdoor so we had no time to waste.
We had a quick lunch at Healing Talk Talk (so cute name?!) which kinda looked like a fast-food chain which sell kimbap and ramen.
There's a self-service machine but the machine is in Korean so we had a bit of a challenge. Thankful that the service staff could speak a little English and helped us with our order!
Food was prepared on the spot and it was soooo good, Zonia loved the kimbap and mommy loved the ramen. Daddy loved the steak rice burger a lot too, he even asked me to make him his at home next time! We ordered a ramen and original kimbap set, crabmeat kimbap, steak rice burger, fried finger food set and it cost just 17,900 won. One of the cheapest meals we had yet no less of quality!

Time for some pictures at Common Ground! The place is hard to miss, you can see huge blue containers from a distance! We couldn't take much pictures cause they were holding an event there. Here is Zonia's take with the famous Common Ground container!
Common Ground is Korea's first pop-up store built with shipping containers, Common Ground is approximately 5300 square meters in scale, made up of 200 large containers and is capable of transforming into different structures or moving into different places!

We left Common Ground at 1:45pm and it started to drizzle?! How can the weather forecast in Korea be so accurate? Everyday, the forecast is on point! We decided to head back to Express Bus Terminal Station to cover the lanes that we didn't finish on Day 5- Lotte World day.
The mall was just as packed as it was. And I went home with another 2 pairs of shoes. That made my total shoes buy for the trip: 4.
I also bought 3 more lipsticks which made my total lipsticks buy: 5.
TONYMOLY Multi Color Pencil from My School Looks 04 and 05
TONYMOLY Multi Color Pencil from My School Looks 04 and 05
These are cheap, like about 2000 won each only!
TONYMOLY Lip Click Styling Color M06, burgundy.
Like the name suggested, you got to click the bottom when you finish the lippie, that's why you can only see a little of the lippie cause cannot keep back haha!
Macqueen Pink-up Girl Pink
MacQueen is my favorite! I got this from Ewha. This is the color from Lotte World pictures!
Another fuchsia one from FaceShop-
I know this is somewhat similar to the MacQueen one but I couldn't get the right one in Singapore, they were all too light so I just got another one just in case!
Dear reader, because of the language barrier in Korea, it was a challenge to get the exact names and addresses of all the places I ate at! I will try to pen down the directions best to my ability. Hopefully, it is sufficient and useful for you to navigate there!
