It was an action packed weekend. On Sunday we decided to do some more exploring and check out the Aquarium in Seoul. Instead of taking the subway, which is time consuming and very tedious, we decided to take the M6405 bus.
We heard about this bus a few weeks before and I saw the M6405 bus drop someone off in front of our apartment complex one day when I was walking Titan but I could not find the M6405 schedule at the bus stop.
So Josh and I got information on the bus at Tomorrow Land, and caught the the bus at the “Technopark” subway terminal. Sure enough the bus stopped right across the street from our apartment by the park and THAT terminal was marked. But hey, it’s Korea. At least we know for next time. more…
On Saturday Josh and I went to our first Korean baseball game, the Incheon SK Wyverns vs. the Seoul Nexen Heroes.
Josh’s Korean friend from work, Beck and his wife invited us to the game.
The food selection was different compared to an American stadium. We had chicken on a stick and beer, (we kept it simple). Other food items I observed – tteokbokki, noodles, and dried squid. (Every now and then you would see someone with a tentacle hanging out of their mouth). I also noticed that some people brought bags with their own snacks in them. more…
I am learning how to read Korean with the assistance of this website learnlangs.com. So far it has been great. After just a few hours of studying last night I am able to read and understand some Korean. (For example – I was able to recognize word sauna last night at the gym).
One thing I did not understand was why the Korean word for karaoke is 노래방 (no rae bang). It confused me because I was told that the Korean word for singing is nolaehaneun.
