Before the trip, I know that Korea is famous for skincare and cosmetic products, so I listed down some products which I have to purchase during the trip. Since I don't really always make-up (I only make-up during occasions such as Chinese New Year, banquets and other important events...), therefore I only buy a few cosmetics products but a lot of skincare products...
When I reached the supermarket there, I only realized that there were so many special and delicious snacks. And, who knows that I also can't resist buying many packed food and snacks there. :P I really like to eat the snack which is only produced in Korea - Toppokei snack. Once I'd eaten it, I got addicted to it!!
For souvenirs, I like those Korean traditional culture stuff such as the Korean spoon and chopsticks which are different from the Chinese ones. I like to use the Korean spoon especially because it is useful to scoop for soup! Haha... :P I like the Korean Hanbok too, but it is a bit expensive, so I gave up to buy them...
Korea is such a shopping heaven, especially for girls... Please prepare more money if you are going to travel there :P
