30th of July - Seoul!

Finally I got to meet my Korean mom again.

She had cooked food for me!

It was very delicious! I feel very happy to be able to eat the food that my mother made for me. 

In evening we met up with Cecilia & Ringo! We ate some tasty BBQ at a restaurant! 

Cecilia & me waiting for the food. Of course I tried to take a photo of the sidedishes. 

Ringo & Rebecca! 

Heaven...

... and of course bingsu for dessert. 

Later on, around midnight, we met up with our other friends to join the Hongdae Club Day! That means - for one pass (20,000 won) you get access to many of the biggest and best clubs around the area. It was crazy and lots of fun! Unfortunately we didn't take many photos that night, partly because it's prohibited to take photos at many places.

Club... SAAB?!!!

Lee & me! At some random place. 

Oh well, that's all for now. I will update more soon. Promise ;)

A memorable day

Update. Now I edited the settings so that everyone can post comments to my posts. Cheers!

Today I finally met my birth mother for the first time since I was born in January 1985.

I was obviously very nervous and excited before meeting her, but I could keep relatively calm before and during the meeting thanks to Rebecca's support. We went together to the adoption agency office to meet up and everything went so well! It felt so strange but in a kind of way very natural. It was like we were familiar despite the fact that I grew up without her. I heard I look very much like one of my uncles. Great, I've always hoped I would remind of some family member of mine. I will actually meet my mother again during this trip, and it feels awesome!!!

After the meeting Rebecca and I went around the Gangnam area, eating at a pretty nice restaurant. It was tasty! Later on we went home to the guesthouse for some rest, before meeting up other friends in evening to party!!! A big group of people gathered together here at our guesthouse, and it was lots of fun. Later on we went out to a club for a while, and then at last ate some street food (korean dumplings - Mandu).

A long & nice day! I wonder what will happen tomorrow!
