Korea/Brunei - Day 12 (Myeongdong)/Day3 (Gadong)

It's our last day in Seoul, Korea. We checked out from  Aloft Seoul Myeongdong  at 11am and dragged our luggage to the bus stop in front of  Ibis Myeongdong Hotel. The bus stop is just 4 minutes walking distance (320m) from  Aloft Seoul Myeongdong . The cheapest way to get to Incheon International Airport (ICN) from Seoul is by AREX. However, the only setback is we have to carry our luggage down the subway stairs. Instead of taking AREX, we decided to try the Airport bus 6015.

Old Traditional Yukgaejang is just 3 minutes walking distance (235m) from  Aloft Seoul Myeongdong . We ordered  Old Traditional Yukagejang (hot spicy beef soup) and  Yukgaejang Seolleongtang (white beef bone soup). Both dishes comes with a bowl of rice and hot soup on a cold day is very comforting. I prefer the hot spicy beef soup as it's more flavourful. White beef bone soup has a milky white broth and taste unappealingly bland. Both dishes consists of beef strips, leek, vegetables and glass noodles.
