subway or complicated way?

Taking subway in seoul is a pain....the place seems so close and yet you have to keep changing lines....in HK, subway is pretty convenient...so i thought, it could be faster to take subway to get to my sis' place..but i was wrong~~~if i took subway, i had to change 4 times and travel for abt 2 hrs to get to my destination...so i ditched the idea and boarded on the bus instead~~~just took me 1.10hrs...long but comfy~~~
complicated mapping of subway....but i was surprised at myself for being able to commute around on my 1st night in seoul...fyi, i got down from the bus at the wrong station and waited for 15 mins for my sis at the wrong station..after a while, i just realised that i waited at the wrong station...eventhough the station is parellel to my sis' station, it took me 30 mins just to get to the destination!!! and i had to change train twice~~~walk very very far (i couldnt imagine underground station could be so HUGE~~~) impressive...
on the contrary, HK's subway is far far simpler...i heard that japan has even worse map than korea....is it to test our intelligence? ahhaha...here are the HK subway map...compare and see the difference :p

The map itself is a reflection of woman vs. man's mind. The only reason how Jane can comprehend the whole map is because she is a woman and thus, think likewise...haha...which is rather true actually if u know her well. :)
