Day three in Jeju involved moving from Hyeopjae to Hamdeok.

We had a seafood platter and seafood ramen set at Hyeopjae Haenyeo's House. It was alright.

Right after eating, we bought a tangerine squishy from a souvenir shop in front of restaurant and walked to another souvenir shop in Hyeopjae that my friend wanted to visit. Even though it was only a 5-minute walk, it was so hot!

This place is called Seojjoggage in Hyeopjae. The owner greeted us as soon as we walked in, which made me feel good. The prices were a bit high, but they let us look around comfortably and told us to take as many photos as we wanted.

It was too expensive to buy anything, but it was fun to look around. It had that Jeju vibe...

I wanted to buy a raw crystal stone; they looks like they bring good energy.

Stairs leading to the second floor.

The souvenir shop had maybe four floors.

I wish this was my house.

A window view of Jeju roofs and palm trees.

Vintage cups.

This mushroom glass craft lamp was so pretty.

On the third or fourth floor, there were diffusers and speakers.

It feels like Chiang Mai.

Uniquely beautiful lighting.

The front of Seojjoggage.

And then we walked a little bit to Jeje Greener Cafe, a small cafe in Hyeopjae with ocean views.

But I wouldn't recommend the cakes... we all left most of it.

But the scenery was so pretty.

There was also a photo zone like this in the back, where some tourists from Thailand were dressed up and taking lots of photos. Of course, we took a lot of pictures too.

After resting for a bit, we moved to Hamdeok!

The journey took almost two hours.

There are two hotels in Hamdeok with really good locations: Utop Ubless Hotel and Ebenesel Hotel. I stayed at Utop Ubless a few years ago and was very satisfied, but this time I chose Ebenesel because it was a bit cheaper. I was satisfied with my choice.

Hair dryer.

Bathroom setup.

The beach is only 5 seconds away. LOL

This is the squishy I bought earlier.

The sunset is also beautiful on the east side.

Now, to eat dinner, we put our name on the waiting list for black pork and went to look around some souvenir shops.

A Kitty-themed store with tons to see.

We almost bought that Hello Kitty glasses case.

The MagSafe cases were reasonably priced.

After looking around here and there, we finally went into Jeopalgge Kkangtong Gui, a black pork restaurant.

As expected of a popular restaurant, it was packed.

We saw that their vacation was from August 5th to 20th, which made us feel the pride of a popular restaurant, very confident.

The owner grills the meat and explains it well. It was delicious, but it was too hot because our seat was in a corner where the air conditioner didn't reach.

Night view of Hamdeok Beach.

People were catching crabs on one side. LOL

Before I knew it, my friend was talking to an elementary school kid. The kid told us the name of the crab, which was funny. It's funny how elementary school kids know so much about dinosaurs and creatures. And so another night in Jeju passes.
