No Room Cleaning

Finally, I recovered from jet lag, so I was able to sleep well. I woke up just after 9 am. Just before 3 pm, Eri and I went out because I had asked the hotel to clean our room. (In the end, even though I asked them three times, they failed to clean the room every single time. How terrible!) We wandered around Dongam Station. We visited a coffee shop to have coffee and sweet potato juice. At 5 pm, we visited a craft beer bar, but it was closed. I assumed that its regular closing days were Monday and Tuesday. We then visited a Korean BBQ restaurant. I ordered boiled dumplings, but I was served Haejang-guk (Korean hangover soup) instead. It was not what I wanted to order, but I decided not to complain. The atmosphere was good anyway. We then moved to another bar. It was darker inside than a typical Korean bar, which made it feel more comfortable. We had Korean potato pancakes and makgeolli (Korean rice wine), and a few other dishes. We enjoyed ourselves very much, and the prices were very reasonable. I continued drinking at the hotel and ate some simmered eggplant that I had bought the previous day. We fell asleep just after 11 pm.
