Korean taxi drivers? Not surprised. My sister talks on her phone while riding a taxi just to stop the drivers from harassing.

My friend says she was attacked by a taxi driver last night. She called the police 37 times before they came. When they finally got there, mid beating, they basically told her "Oh, well, he's Chinese."

I am taking this with a grain of salt because she's one of those people that manages to create drama everywhere.

Also, I won a costume contest last night by dressing as Uncle Ruckus (no relation).

I have an STD for everyone:



Going for a smaller more trimmed down affair than last year since we have relocated to a more intimate space. But there is still plenty of rooms for +1s. I promise dinner will be on time! I'll be hassling people on Kakao chat next week or so to see if they're coming. If you're not in group chat but still want to attend (and you're super welcome to!) please just post here.

The guy that always wants grits might get them too.

If I have this right I should just eat all the Korean BBQ and do Karaoke and get drunk out of my mind ?

Take her to any brunch place and get her an omelette. Butterfingers or sujis is pretty good, not very fancy but it will get the job done

Understanding is a three edged sword. Your side, their side, and a pair of ruby slippers.
I have another question that I was hoping that someone here might know something about. I was determined to get myself a Olleh Wifi Egg when I arrive in Korea, but now I've been looking into just getting a SIM Card instead. I will have internet in my apartment in Mokpo, and most likely we will have internet on the shipyard as well, so I don't think I need the unlimited data and would rather have a Korean number.

Someone told me about EG Sim (http://www.egsimcard.co.kr/), but I am wondering if anyone knows how this work. From what I can see you get your own Korean phone number and it is yours unless you let the subscription lapse. Since I'll be going back and forth to Korea I was wondering if anyone has used it and whether it is "easy" to keep the number since I basically want a Korean number that is "mine" so that my Korean coworkers and other people I meet can reach me on a permanent number and not have get a new number from me every second month.

I'm not familiar with that card, but there are now simcards at the convenience store at the airport.

Still not here yet.
I was looking at the precursor to that program last year and EG Sim is what you're looking for. Unfortunately, you are correct that it will expire every 60 days.

What about just getting a wifi phone like the LG070?

Bit torrent is basically completely safe here as long as you don't download Korean intellectual property. Torrent project is a good bit torrent search engine.
