Suddenly, after the Friday test in which I had 3 (it went quite bad, unfortunately), almost everybody decided to spend the weekend in Seoul. In the afternoon we made ready and reached the capital city by bus, e we went to the Internation Baduk Academy, where we had an appointment with the other guys of the school: some of us, indeed, slept in the apartment where the IBA's student live.

I, Gabriel, Sebastian and Pavol went to eat by ourself because the other already went to: we chose a near chinese restaurant, where we ate very good noodles. Gabriel tried to prove that he his a real man eating the hottest dish, and luckly he won the challenge: excellent! The restaurant's woman, as she saw his crying and noticeably exhausted, tried to tell him that she could give him a new dish for free, but he (as a real man) refused. Back to IBA, Boris asked me the return match (when we met one month ago I won), but I won again because he made a wrong invasion.
It started to become late, so we decided to go to a near bar, where we talked a lot, have some good food and beverage. After that, we decided to go to the norebang just in front of the bar, and there we passed the next 3 hours singing many songs: it was really fun because everybody start to know Painkiller and other not-to-be-missed songs I usually enqueue. The song that most like best is Rhapsody's Emerald Sword.
Happy but dead tired, late at night we separeted and some of us went to sleep in a place we will always remember (I hope): a Jimjilbang (찜질방). Basically it's a room (bang, 방), where is possibile to have a sauna. It's usually used as a place where it's possibile to sleep at night quite cheaply, because the entrance is 8000₩ (around 5€). Inside the rooms you have to wear the uniform they give you at the entrance, and it's possibile to sleep (man and female in the same area) in a big room on the warmed floor, but without blanket and pillow, and even the light is turned on: luckyly we were very tired, otherwise it would have been impossibile to sleep, also because we could hear some strange noise by our neighbours...
