I took the midnight flight to South Korea from Singapore Changi International Airport Terminal 2. It was unusual for me to be in Singapore airport so early to check in my luggage because the airport has many kiosks to do self-check-in and drop off luggage, unlike other countries which still need to queue at the counters. Also, the fast, self-service biometric immigration process here, made me confidently think that if I were there 2 hours before the departure time, I could make it to the boarding gate.
One wanted to jalan jalan in the airport terminals
While this was a new experience for me to hop between terminals using the sky trains inside the terminals, it meant a lot of walking before I sat down on the aeroplane. I do not know if this is worth it. For now, it is enough that I have been through terminals 1, 2 and 3 on this trip. And, I went to terminal 4 during my Chinese New Year trip.

I made an IG reel, just in case cannot view it here, please head to my profile for more. It was a magnificent moment while having my breakfast on the aeroplane. Many times, I wish to have someone with me enjoying the moment together and I still hope for one.
Travelling on AREX to Gongdeok Station
I travelled to Seoul city from Incheon International Airport via the AREX all-stop trains. It has a non-stop train which directly goes to Seoul Station too. The fare was ₩4,350 ($43.50). If I were to compare it with Malaysia’s ERL transit which departs from KLIA to KL Sentral (it is a travel and transit hub in Kuala Lumpur (KL), Malaysia), it would cost RM55.00 ($15.71). And of course, travelling from Changi International Airport to Bugis MRT (tourist area) would cost $2.00ish. In Singapore, we do not have a travel or transit hub because our country is small, and we do not have an express airport train either.
Travelling time to my Gongdeok station which is located near my apartment took about an hour. I would say, it is fast because I took more than an hour to travel from KLIA to my house in KL. If you were to travel from Singapore Changi Airport to the nearest city (Bugis), it would take 44 minutes.
