Transit at Incheon Airport, Korea (things to do while waiting for the transit flight)

21st January 2012

23rd and 24th January are the first and 2nd day of the Chinese New Year, I wanted to go back to Malaysia for the new year celebration. So, I started to scout for ticket last July. Since MAS and Air Asia did not fly to Fukuoka, I had to choose other airlines and transit before I can reach Kuala Lumpur. I found out that for the chinese new year period, only Korean Airline offered the cheapest ticket and it can be pay in the convenience store. The Singapore Airline and Cathay Pacific tickets was so expensive. So, I bought the Korean Airline one and transit in Korea.

To my surprise, there were many stuffs to do during the transit waiting time. If the transit time is long enough, there is a tour that one can join with a small fee. However, I did not intend to go anywhere, so after I got out from the plane (Fukuoka to Incheon), I went to find a restaurant, first I thought I had to change to Korean Won to pay. However, one can pay with USD, Japanese Yen, Korean Won and China RMB. So, I did not have to waste the money on conversion rate. I found a Korean restaurant and ordered a Tofu Soup set, it was quite spicy, but very delicious, eating that hot stuff was very smoothing.

"Now you see me" by Margeret Murphy

I think I got this book from the "Big Bad Wolf book sales". It was such a nice sales with the paperbacks going at as low as RM8 or RM5. I bought a lot. Due to the price, I even bought those that was not so famous, like this book. However, this book was very nice. I am glad that I bought this.
now you see me
This book is about computer hacking and revenge. A girl, Megan who was very good at computer stole from a businessman, Patrick Dolan by using her hacking skill. One thing I learnt from this is never use your own identification number or birthday or password as password. It is a stupid thing to do so.
