Nice that others have a little to say!
Most say I'm an ungrateful "foreigner" and should learn to adapt to Asia. Well, been in Asia for 8 years.
Anyway, wish the people in charge would give more credit to people with abilities. Most foreigners CAN swim, with just the opposite being Asians.
But when they don't even let them in ankle deep water!! If I never hear another whistle it will be too...
Yeah, I think the most frustrating thing about the surfing ban is the arbitrary enforcement and just the unreasonable and unflexible enforcers. We surfed good mipo on sunday and even gwangali was looking fun. With the growing popularity (take a look at the out of control "surf zone" at songjeong) maybe we can come up with a solution or compromise. Why not do what...
Swimming was banned all day but surfing and body boarding was allowed before 9AM. The waves were all time, perfect swell window. Im still on cloud 9. Being from San Diego I am starving for a decent wave in this city. I got my fill, pretty much had my pick of every set. I guess I shouldn't be surprised that Koreans can't surf when the waves are good. ...
Yeah i know, living thru my 2nd year .
Never thought I would pray for September!
They should see the waves in SoCal, like the Wedge, now there is reason for concern, but fun!
hockeyrick,
The reason for this is that a huge proportion of the people at the beach would get into trouble if they were allowed to swim in anything remotely resembling a swell, it's sad but true, if you spent much time in any of the swimming pools around Busan you would quickly come to this realization. Really mate, if you wanna catch some waves you'll have to wait until September and October,...
TESOL, if I'm not mistaken is an official certificate for teaching ESL. ESL certificates can be generic and unrecognized. I'm pretty sure for an institution to be authorized to grant TESOL certificates, their programs have to be accredited. The schools that offer just general ESL certificates probably just give you a lesson in teaching English their way and give you a piece of paper for your...
You think guys stand in the corners of bars and rate women on their marriagability? As in, "Hey Bob, check out that one. I wouldn't marry her if my life depended on it."
Sure. Whatever.

It seems most of the Korea-related podcasts and other programming is Seoul-based. Is there a southern, Busan-oriented product only Busan-based expats can bring?

I considered joining the podcast, but I wasn't certain what Jeff Lebow had planned for KB and PW. It's been 12 years, and I have loving memories of PW. I still go to the movies section to access the link for Lotte or CGV if I want to check out what's playing. I used to receommend the site for students, but not recently. I just hope this is a serious push to reclaim what was a great resource....
If you are in Busan, i recommend Busanjin market. You can get off at the beomil-dong stop and look for the sign for busanjin market. It's pretty huge and sells anything from fabric, beads, jewlery, to bedding and kitchen appliances. It's one of my favorite places. Good luck!
Currently the emfield module is supporting photobuck, imageshack, and picassa, but I can't seem to get Flickr working. Hopefully we can get if figured out soon.
What are you trying to prove here? You're only reinforcing the stereotype.
"Oh, I just stopped trying."
Why have you given up? This only reinforces the lazy expat stereotype. You mentioned many expat women are fat. In Korea, being fat is associated...
