Trip to COEX Mall
The COEX Mall is a huge mall in the southern part of Seoul, off the Samseong subway stop, Line 2, Exits 5 and 6. The Mall brags of being the "largest mall and entertainment complex in the Orient". It has its own aquarium, which we visited. It displays fish from the region, and has quite a few big sharks and beautiful manta rays! We took a few pictures while we were there. I think our favorite fish was the "Harlequin Sweetlips", just from the name alone!
The mall is a huge complex of shops with several department stores on each end, and scores of restaurants. There are several levels, some of which are underground, and it seems as if you could never see everything in one day! The "entertainment complex" part inludes a place called "Gimme Five", which has a restaurant- where you can watch championship kickboxing while you dine, and casino gaming tables- where they give you free "money" to gamble with (play money, of course). We ended up at COEX on a Sunday, the only day Gimme Five was closed, so we're going to have to reschedule so we can experience a meal while being sweated on by a couple Korean kickboxers. Sounds like fun, right?
