Random bits about what is going on in Korea:
Koffi Annan has left Korea. He is traveling around Asia. The next head of the U.N. is probably going to be from Asia. Korea is one of the countries that will be nominating a canidate to fill his place. He also came to discuss Dokdo.
Dokdo is an island claimed by both Korea and Japan. Long history, both want it, only one will triumph. They even have t-shirts, "Save Dokdo."
Korea is gearing up for the World Cup. Koreans are really, really. very, extremely nationalistic. They really want to win, is putting it too mildly. Many of the kids are wearing red jerseys sporting the logo,"Reds Go Together." Most of the advertising revolves around the World Cup right now. There is even a song and a dance. Seriously. World Cup season is going to be interesting.
Elections are looming and will take place at the end of the month.
Also, some people are still championing Dr. Hwang, trying to get him re-enstated. Yeah, I've seem them at festivals and such. Very loyal.
Umm, what else, the weather is great. I'm enjoying it before the humidity hits. People are already starting to in namyeong(which is cold buckwheat noodles served a variety of ways, maybe pictures later).
The kids are still great. I have take a picture of them on a review day. They like to stick the stickers to their face. It's really cute.
Well that's all from Korea for now. Take care.
