-Katya had a thesis to finish, and Luis had a lecture/workshop to attend, so on his way he dropped me at Gyeongbokgung Palace, where I spent most of my day. I arrived just in time for one of the changing of the guards "ceremonies", so I stood behind the line and watched before getting my ticket and going inside. While there'll never be a palace more beautiful than the Grand Palace in Bangkok (in my opinion), I did appreciate the picturesque landscapes, and the mountains in the background, not to mention the quiet peacefulness of the area as opposed to the chaotic surroundings of Bangkok.

-Visited the Folk Museum at the palace, and watched a song-and-dance show thing for a bit, during which an older Korean hurried in (late) and sat next to me and grabbed the program out of my lap to fan herself.
-I followed Sejong-daero street down to the City Hall metro station and rode it to Hoegi to meet up with Luis at 5:30.

-We met Katya for dinner at ChinaFactory, and had some really delicious Chinese food! At least the chopsticks weren't metal this time.
