haahah thanks to ALL for the comments and encouragement

i wish i was in london too im sure there are no koreans up north roflz

I think you're right There are actually a fair few in London, mostly crammed into shitty English language schools that rip off foreigners. I'm actually from Manchester (just living in London for time being), you?

I'm hoping to be able to work on my Korean once I move to Seoul - I know there are conversation classes and a lot of international parties etc held in the Sinchon area of the city. Good luck finding someone fun to practice with I found the Arirang books pretty useful, but I'm going to look at textbooks more extensively later on this year.

Awesome - gl with your moving. I really hope I'll be in Seoul too but probably just in outer Gyeonggi-do if I want to be in Korea by Sept/Oct. Arghghhghh (Next blog material! )

Wait so you're doing this in London? Or in Seoul? One thing I found here was that, although my Korean language course taught me a whole bunch of "important rules" about the language and culture, real Koreans are much nicer about it and don't really care if you break the rules. Like I don't think you have to use the honorifics with a girl you're meeting to hang out with, even if she is older than you. And people drink soup out of the bowl all the time, WTF.

London. That stuff is good to know thanks. No. 1 prob just disliked my personality then haha

Btw - the best way to learn Korean is to go to Korean booking clubs. In an environment where communication is a very essential key to getting laid, you have no choice but to force yourself to learn.

I think I read about these clubs in one of your other posts. The idea sounds prettty appealing...

Hah yeah I'm pretty zero manner when I'm eating already. Slurping is my forte, as well as sprinkling the area around me in rice and veg during an intense shovelling session.

ROFL. I thought you were saying something profound. But the korean vocabulary was really unfamiliar so I whipped out my dictionary (always on hand ofc). After "translating" the "punch", I burst out laughing.

+ Show Spoiler [for the clueless] +

"Punch them in the motherfucking dick!"

Edit: why the apology? I loved it.

Sorry. Maybe I should have made it more obvious - I myself hate it when people make dumb jokes and I waste time looking up nonexistent words

I learned lots of Korean playing Lineage. Probably not your thing unless you really like the game, and have craploads of time. I guess the important part is spend a lot of time interacting with people who only use Korean. Immersion, I think they call it.

I tried reading Korean books but could never get into it. My Korean reading wpm is like 10.

I am a Korean national. But that's not interesting, talking to 6(!) girls(!!) (multiple times!!!!!) is interesting.

Elric. Share. Or die. !!!

Also.... Rekrul has FAILED ME.

I sent him this:

Does the term "씨발" really originate from the phrase "습을 팔다," and the term "습" refer to female genetalia?

In short, does the term "씨발" actually mean "prostitute" or "whore" or similar?


and he basically said "i dunno you tell me"

FAIL!

(does anyone here know?)

Ahem. Did you listen to the song? Here's an excerpt:

But you ain't gotta be a dude
Shit, I'll dick-punch a chick
Because I don't discriminate
When I punch em' in the dick

Arvick: See thread "punch them in the dick"

In Sinchon, you'd better like crowded streets and loud... everything. Cuz that's what you're gonna get. I heard Seoul's shisha places are teh sux. There's this place in Daejon that is teh pwn.

btw the table manners thing is all sorts of bs.
You only have to follow that if you actually respect the people you're eating with.

Some fucking randoms = blow your nose into the bowl and drink it and then shovel rice in her mouth
