Seoul 4-Day, 3-Night Shopping and Sightseeing Trip

Four days is actually just right for Seoul—not too long, not too short. Perfect for a girls' trip to shop and explore (we went to Olive Young four times!). Olive Young shopping haul (based on recommendations from IG and YouTube): - Torriden Blue Hydrating Mask: 8,700 won for 6 pieces - Goodal Vita C Serum: Seems to be a relatively new brand? - Torriden Eye Cream: I know Torriden products are great, so I decided to try their eye cream. It costs around HK$100. - Numbuzin No. 3 Mask (not sure if I spelled it right): This No. 3 mask has been super popular lately. - Roundlab Sunscreen: The packaging is covered with award logos 😹 Sightseeing spots: - Deoksugung Palace: Just a short walk from our hotel. A bit further away is Gyeongbokgung Palace. Deoksugung is quite small, but if you love traditional architecture, it's worth a visit. It's not crowded. - Myeongdong: Not exactly a sightseeing spot, but it's great for shopping and food. There's a huge Olive Young store and HBAF snacks (I don't like nuts, but their seaweed chips are delicious 🙌🙌). I also bought a jacket from Spao for just around $250! But honestly, it was super crowded, and it rained that day 😭😭. - Seongsu-dong: A trendy area with lots of young people, street culture shops, and cafes. Korean cafes are often high-quality—beautiful and delicious 😋. - Jeongdong-gil (Stone Wall Road): Located right outside Deoksugung Palace. The road is stunning, especially with the autumn leaves. It's perfect for photos. There's also a beautiful Western restaurant called Oddhaus—highly recommended! - Namsangol Hanok Village: Compared to Bukchon Hanok Village, this place is quieter and less crowded. - Dongdaemun: Tons of clothing stores with great prices, but make sure to negotiate!
