I was curious about the world Prapiroon.Prapiroon? What is that word?I searched and knew that it is name of a typhoon.And I will tell you about the story.Why names appeared?It was made not to confuse the weather forecast because a typhoon can last for more than a week or there may be more than one typhoon in the same area at the same time.How many names?There are 140 names and only 14 countries affected by the typhoon (China, South Korea, North Korea, Hong Kong, Japan, Laos, Macau, Malaysia, Micronesia, Philippines, Cambodia, Thailand, USA and Vietnam) The names are using according to the order in which the typhoon occurs.Prapiroon? The seventh typhoon, PRAPIROON, is a name submitted by Thailand that means Rain's god.My opinionIt was interesting there are only 140 names and 14 countries affected by typhoon.Tagged: typhoon in Korea, monsoon in Korea, whether in Korea, summer in Korea, PrapiroonNation 1 2 3 4 5Cambodia 담레이 콩레이 나크리 크로반 트라세Damrey Kong-rey Nakri Krovanh TrasesChina 하이쿠이 위투 펑선 두쥐안 무란Haikui Yutu Fengshen Dujuan MulanNorth Korea 기러기 도라지 갈매기 수리개 메아리Kirogi Toraji Kalmaegi Surigae MeariHongkong 카이탁 마니 풍웡 초이완 망온Kai-tak Man-yi Fung-wong Choi-wan Ma-onJapan 덴빈 우사기 간무리 고구마 도카게Tembin Usagi Kammuri Koguma TokageLaos 볼라벤 파북 판폰 참피 힌남노Bolaven Pabuk Phanfone Champi HinnamnorMacau 산바 우딥 봉퐁 인파 무이파Sanba Wutip Vongfong In-fa MuifaMalaysia 즐라왓 스팟 누리 츰파카 므르복Jelawat Sepat Nuri Cempaka MerbokMicronesia 에위니아 문 실라코 네파탁 난마돌Ewiniar Mun Sinlaku Nepartak NanmadolPhilippines 말릭시 다나스 하구핏 루핏 탈라스Maliksi Danas Hagupit Lupit TalasSouth Korea 개미 나리 장미 미리내 노루Gaemi Nari Jangmi Mirinae NoruThailand 쁘라삐룬 위파 메칼라 니다 꿀랍Prapiroon Wipha Mekkhala Nida KulapUSA 마리아 프란시스코 히고스 오마이스 로키Maria Francisco Higos Omais RokeViet Nam 손띤 레끼마 바비 꼰선 선까Son-Tinh Lekima Bavi Conson SoncaCambodia 암필 크로사 마이삭 찬투 네삿Ampil Krosa Maysak Chanthu NesatChina 우쿵 바이루 하이선 뎬무 하이탕Wukong Bailu Haishen Dianmu HaitangNorth Korea 종다리 버들 노을 민들레 날개Jongdari Podul Noul Mindulle NalgaeHongkong 산산 링링 돌핀 라이언록 바냔Shanshan Lingling Dolphin Lionrock BanyanJapan 야기 가지키 구지라 곤파스 하토Yagi Kajiki Kujira Kompasu HatoLaos 리피 파사이 찬홈 남테운 파카르Leepi Faxai Chan-hom Namtheun PakharMacau 버빙카 페이파 린파 말로 상우Bebinca Peipah Linfa Malou SanvuMalaysia 룸비아 타파 낭카 냐토 마와르Rumbia Tapah Nangka Nyatoh MawarMicronesia 솔릭 미탁 사우델 라이 구촐Soulik Mitag Saudel Rai GucholPhilippines 시마론 하기비스 몰라베 말라카스 탈림Cimaron Hagibis Molave Malakas TalimSouth Korea 제비 너구리 고니 메기 독수리Jebi Neoguri Goni Megi DoksuriThailand 망쿳 부알로이 앗사니 차바 카눈Mangkhut Bualoi Atsani Chaba KhanunUSA 바리자트 마트모 아타우 에어리 란Barijat Matmo Etau Aere LanViet Nam 짜미 할롱 밤꼬 송다 사올라Trami Halong Vamco Songda Saola

Welcome to Seoul, the capital of South Korea. Start your adventure at the K-Style Hub, a state-of-the-art visitor centre where South Korea’s past, present and future converge.At the head of Gwanghwamun Square sits the statue of Sejong the Great, whose reign oversaw a golden age of literature, science and technology. The great leader sits before the grandest of Seoul’s five royal palaces, Gyeongbokgung, the Palace of Shining Happiness.A short bus or subway ride to the east, are the adjoining palaces of Changdeokgung and Changgyeongung, while just to the south at Deoksugung Palace, see the changing of the guard which takes place three times each day.Just to the west, is the last of Seoul’s great palaces, Gyeonghuigung, a royal refuge in times of unrest.   After exploring Seoul’s temple complexes, see how ordinary Koreans once lived at the Namsangol Hanok Village. Then explore the Korea Furniture Museum where over 2000 exquisite items of furniture are displayed within ten traditional houses.The story of Korean craftsmanship continues at the National Museum of Korea, which houses national treasures such as the Ten Story Pagoda.   Close to Seoul’s great South Gate is Namdaemun Market, where locals have been bargaining hard for over 600 years. Looking for some Gangnam style? Head just upriver to Samseong-dong, the Beverly Hills of Seoul.Spend a few hours in the wooded surrounds of the Bongeunsa Buddhist Temple, a peaceful antidote to the fierce pace of Seoul’s shopping. Then hike to the peak of Namsan, and take in the sweeping views from Seoul’s iconic tower. When the sun gets low, join locals on the banks of the Han River to see the Banpo Bridge erupt in waves of water and light.source:expedia

The fact that there are over 100 different types of kimchi should tell you something about the pride Koreans have in their food. Korean cuisine has evolved over time because of cultural and changes, but it remains a major aspect of the national identity.

Hi,I have always been facing issue to get a SIM card when I travel. My last experience was in Italy, I only managed to get a SIM  on the second day (I landed in the midnight). Worst part was, I had to pay 20Euro for a 2 months SIM but I was only in Italy for 7 days. Any recommendation or suggestion for my next trip in Korea?

Hi, I already make booking for Seoul Photo Snaps by Ms. Chae, Order Number #567 May i know will you guys update us the information？ example： where to Meet, what time to meet? where to snap? 

Unfortunately, available seats for M-countdown is very limited and they don’t allow pre-booking via online at the moment from this year 2018. We may suggest you an alternative option instead of M-countdown. Please check the link below, it’s SBS MTV ‘The show’ https://www.habkorea.net/tour/sbs-mtv-the-show-watching-tour/ Many of our customers said, ‘The Show’ is actually much better than M-countdown. If it’s fit for your schedule, you can book this activity. We will do our best to get it back online again sooner or later.Thank you for your understanding.Best Regards, Team HaB Korea
