  • Baseball Korean style at Jamsil Stadium - Seoul
    Baseball Korean style at
    Jamsil Stadium

    Korean Professional League teams play at two stadiums in Seoul (at least) -- Jamsil and Dongdaemun. The quality of play is good and you may see some future US Major Leaguers. Chan Ho Park, Hee Sop Choi and Byung Young Kim all played in the Korean League, and former Pittsburgh Pirates star Al Martin now plays for the LG Twins. Baseball games are a bargain by US or Japanese standards. Good seats can be had for W10,000 and a beer only costs W2000. Games usually start at 6 p.m. and I recommend you eat before you go or bring some food. I don't like fast food, so the monopoly on concessions enjoyed by Burger King and Kentucky Fried Chicken did not appeal to me. I ended up eating a huge bowl of steamy hot soup (mostly broth) on a hot humid night. This barely kept my stomach at bay until I could have a better meal after the game.

    Korea boasts it's own greenish-hue pottery work Celadon, which I found to be quite attractive and made my way towards Icheon a quick drive from Seoul. Opportunities to make your own pottery are abundant, so seek out the little shops. Icheon also houses many unique pieces of pottery art in it's own museum space built specifically for a huge Ceramics Exhibition upcoming. http://www.wocef.com, while there you'll learn about traditional kiln building and take a walking tour of Korean ceramics history.

    I took this picture in the eastcoast of Korea. when i worked for my previous company, that company had condominiums all over the Korea. One of them is located in the eastcoast area. I liked here the most because the beach was just in front of the condominium.. I used to go there during the weekend with my close friends...Just looking at the shore washed by the waves. doing nothing was wonderful moment.

    I went here to try dog meat (sorry doglovers, I am a cat person!) because my homestay father told me it is very tasty. I was the only foreigner in the area(very rare for Seoul!). Anyway, I set out for my adventure when I get to the dog alley. I know everyone likes fresh food but these restaurants took it too far. All of the restaurants had live dogs crammed into small cages in front of the restaurants! The reality of seeing the barking and whining dogs quickly changed my mind about eating dog. As I walked on, some places had whole roasted dogs on top of the cages with the live dogs. It was too much for me so I left. I will never forget the calls of the owners asking first if I wanted chicken then dog.

    One of the major things to buy in Korea is Ginseng. It can be found in its natural state but most people buy it as tea. Personally I can't stand the stuff but it is meant to be great for your health and is an aphrodisiac also!
