Any thoughts/experiences on teaching English in Korea? I heard alot of programs offer to pay for your flight/housing and also pay pretty well. I also heard that you don't have to be all that great at speaking Korean to tutor in Korea.

Just a quick heads up. The premium store in apgu got their shipment of the retro Infrareds in today if anyone is interested. I heard people are lining up for these in the states.

Hey friends, I just moved to Seoul from San Francisco. I took a teaching job in Gangseo-gu right near Ujangsan station. Seems like a decent neighborhood, easy access to everything but sort of out of the craziness of the center of the city.

Anyway, if anyone is down to explore the city with me (and get gawked at by just about everybody (I am roughly 6'5")) or grab a drink and talk about babes or clothes or whatever, feel free to get ahold of me. My email is [email protected]

Also, what is the name of the store that I was in today in Myeongdong across from the American Apparel. It's like 4 stories, bottom two being some men/womens mid-range label stuff (APC, Tretorn, etc...) 3rd floor is some household stuff and nick nacky items like travel diaries and journals/notebooks and then top floor has some new and used clothes, vintage,etc... Super dope store, I just can't for the life of me remember the name. Plus, lots of attractive people working/shopping there.

[thomas_highstreet]

store is A LAND.

not to bad, and cheapish... i know some of the staff.

theres also one in apgu.

i miss seoul, left last week. will be back out maybe jan/feb? anyone about then? dis?

T

p.s. plastic surgery thing a bit inflated.. not that many people have it, out of all of my friends only 1 had her eyes done and she said it was because her eye lashes too long? (they are literally about 2.5-3cm) - statistics might be low because i only role with naturally super hot bitches though.

[dismalfuture]

damn, we missed you then eh? Hope you do make it back out, we are going to be around probably. Heading out in a month and staying til we get sick of it.

[AlDelGreco]

Thomas,

Ill still be here in Jan/Feb if you want to hang.

Under the pretense that you introduce me to some of the girls who work at A Land, though...

[thomas_highstreet]

haha..

a land is basic, i worked a little higher on the fashion food chain where the girls start to get really spicy.. hahaha.. plus.... rolling with W_W the ian curtis doppleganger proved to be a pretty effective wingman - a true seocho legend.

yeh ill be out jan/feb most probably, but definatly back out next summer to live for a bit..

dis, how long you out for? like a move? or just vacation? where you living?

[JDM]

im moving to Seoul in a month or so

all esl jobs pay for your flight and housing. you dont have to be able to speak korean at all.

you just need to meet the requirements. im thinkin about doing it when I get to Seoul, not sure though

[MataLeao]

Excellent thread!

I'm heading to Seoul next week and will probably head out to Apgujeong and Hongdae. Looking forward to apple soju...yumm.

Any thing special or events going on Friday 22nd to Sunday 23rd around Seoul?

Stat's about right, either all your friends are lying or you just don't pick up the difference. Girls themselves don't even consider Eye as a plastic surgery anymore since it's so common. Next time you see your GF try to push their nose

[thomas_highstreet]

thats bollocks... maybe for mid 20s apgu girls, but even then the level isnt that high

take a train ride and you can count, noticeably more on line 3 granted but stats are stil shitty.

where in seoul you living umha?

[shimshimhae]

they all must be fucking balla though considering how much this shit must retail in seoul.

[Guest umhaha84]

currently in boondang,,,I excluded woman over 30 in my stat LOL

just had a little discussion with one of my gf she agrees to my stats 80% of girl around me has something done surprisingly

[dismalfuture]

The eye thing looks so bad. I've told girls to their face that I can't be seeing them because of that shit. And I happen to have natural double eyelids. Does this make me a genetic elitist?

[Guest umhaha84]

that's what being a Korean is all about

elite

[dismalfuture]

Being Korean is about having the anger inside you. I'm not so sure about the elite part. Genetically, we aren't all exactly hitting the lotto. Well, I am, but the other 60 million people, Im not so sure about....
