May 5th is a national Holiday in Korea known as Children’s Day. It is a day where parents spend time with their children and give them gifts. Knowing that I would neither get to spend time with my parents or receive any gifts, I made plans with some friends to go hang out in Apgujeong and hopefully get to see some famous people. I arrived around noon and my friends weren’t coming til around 3 so I just took a little tour on my own around Apgujeong. One of my Korean friends who lives in Apgujeong told about me some spots where celebrities such as G-Dragon and Taeyang have been known to visit from time to time. I didn’t have a map or directions to these places but everything was located on the main streets known as “Rodeo Street” which is where all of the stores and shopping places are located. Pierrot Strike is a bowling alley and pub that also serves a regular food menu during certain parts of the day.
