People ask me constantly what Korea looks like at night. Ok, they don't. But I imagine if I ever got mail from anyone asking about Korea, they'd want to know what it looks like around sunset. Because you're all hopeless romantics. It's really disgusting.

That's a hospital in the back. But it looks like a jail. And that's a park across the street and a court that guys use to play some kind of weird kick-a-vollyball-over-a-tennis-net-and-hit-it-with-our-heads game. This next two pictures show the expansive apartment complexes that people live in. There are no houses in the city. If you want to see a house, you best be heading out into butt-fuck no where where people pick rice and eat their dogs.

That last sentence may not be completely accurate and might be a very stereotypical over-generalization of Korean hillbillies. But they do exist. And they probably do eat their dogs.

Oh, there are most certainly Korean hillbillies. Here's a photo of one from the rural village I used to live in: http://www.driftingfocus.com/blogs/?p=4000
The pictures are great. Hard to imagine South Korea looks like Toronto.
