I'm unsure of what korea is strong at other than archery lol. I'll probably play baseball and a bit of soccer even though i'm not really a fan of soccer, but I hear it is sort of big there. I'm pretty active so I'll play whatever and be decent at it. If archery is big...I'd love to get better. I never really learned well. | ||

Do you speak Korean though? I'd figure if you're going to school there then you'd most likely be required to but heh, you never know. The Korean food is AMAZING and the people are so nice ^^ As long as you're respectful and not a complete douche. I didn't get to go to GOM studios when I went T-T | ||

I've spent my semester abroad in Korea as well (at Inha University in Incheon, directly next to Seoul), I can recommend going to Korea ^^ Hope you're not taking the 'easy' road and pick the courses that are made only for Exchange students where you get 99% A-grades, there you won't meet any Koreans. I lived in the dorms with 3 Koreans and played lots of games with them, lots of fun ^^ As long as you're not one of the typical 'party semester' Exchange students I guess you will meet some "real" Koreans instead of the ones that only hang around the Exchange students.. I can recommend to go to Carribean Bay (biggest swimming pool in the world?, with lots of slides and stuff), Everland and Lotte World (both amusement/theme parks)...also go to Yeoui-Do and Time Square.. Enjoy your time in Korea! | ||

Yeah I'll be around everyone, might as well get my money's worth. | ||

I've always been fascinated with very old and traditional cultures and learning about Korean culture while taking taekwondo as a kid has made me very interested in Korea. As a technology nerd, Seoul seems to be the perfect place for me to visit. They're so far ahead of us in technological infrastructure, and I'm so excited to be a part of it. And...obviously...StarCraft <3 | ||

Hit up the karaoke bars, pc bangs, and the mall! I'm thinking about doing the program where college students go to Korea to teach English for like 6 months. Maybe I'll see you at GSL if I ever happen to do it! | ||

If I really like it there, I may consider that at some point! Yeah for sure about GSL!! Would be great to find someone to go with. | ||
