전주 (Jeon Ju)

This weekend was pretty fun. On Friday I went with some friends to a jazz club in Hongdae. It was really hip and sweet. I really love jazz, and in a hollow way, for some reason I felt important being there, like I was part of the elite. Not that that really matters, but still, it was nice to be in such a classy place.

Then on Saturday, a friend from church took me outside of Seoul to where he goes to college in a place called Jeon Ju. He showed his college campus. It was a really modernized campus, and actually, the church I go to (onnurri) is foundational church of the University. Here's a couple of pictures to of the campus.

Then we went up to the library, and I got some great pictures of the city and surrounding area:

After that we went downtown to grab a bite to eat, then we met up with one of his friends. The downtown area reminded me a lot of Myungdung or parts of Anyung. Here's a couple pics to show what it's like:

That's my friend giving a funny but nice pose right before we caught the bus to go back.

Then on Sunday, after church, I met with a friend and went to a really really classy, nice tea place. This was like the fanciest cafe type place I've ever been to in my life. We had two things of tea, and one slice of cheesecake for $20 basically, so that tells you how nice the place was. Unfortunately I didn't have my camera at the time or you can be sure you'd be seeing pictures of it.

So overall, it was a great weekend. Coming up, the Lunar New Year! Yay for three days off from work!!
