I'm famous!

About a month ago Derek and I went to Seoul with some friends. We decided to go to Gangam to see the rich side of Korea. We walked around, gawked at the nice clothing stores and saw many crowds for what I assume were sightings of famous people. We ended up sitting at a cafe when we had a camera crew ask to film us. The show was Two Days One Night, an extremely famous Korean show. It's a travel show where a group goes around Korea, spending two days and one night in the area. They do some odd competitions to make seeing the sights more fun. Basically it's what every Korean watches on Sunday night.
Anyways, so we were interviewed and pretty much bombed all the questions, except at the end we had to say 'Seoul is ______' and I made the cut!

Cut to 88:22
2 Days, 1 Night

Also, if you want to watch the show with English subtitles ( the one I'm in isn't up yet)  and get a taste of Korean pop culture you can here. 

A Seoul Sucking Vacation

About a month ago Derek and I went to Seoul for the weekend. Various things kept going wrong. We got lost many times, planned poorly, electronic devices failed us and poorly written guide books deceived us. Most importantly, a temperature of 10 degrees just wiped the travelling spirit out of us. The only thing that went well was that Derek and I didn't fight through all of the turmoil. In fact, all we could do by the end of the trip was laugh and laugh at our poor fortune. Here are a few pictures to sum it up.

General feelings

Doughnut Plant in Korea sucks.

What we thought was going to be an underground arcade.

trashy pile

Had to add this one, at the Trick Eye museum. It was a highlight.

I am excited to go back to Seoul but not until spring.
