Lions and Tigers and... Oh Shit, Actual Lions and Tigers!


O-World was adorable!  It's this mini amusement park with cute rides and a great atmosphere.  It's not somewhere to go if you want the thrilling rides found at Kings Dominion or Six Flags, but I'm fine with that.  The best part about going the Friday before Chuseok?  No one was there! Zero lines=lots of fun.  I hate waiting.  We started the day with some high-quality O-World entertainment at the main stage (check out Vlog #4 for the video).  Then we moved onto the rides.  We then went in for the highlight--> African Safari, wooot!  The animals were so close you could practically hear them saying "help me welcome to Daejeon Zoo!"


We then saw even more animals in the actual zoo part of the amusement park.  Very cool.  We ended the day in Flower World... yes, Flower World.  It's actually exactly what it sounds like.  Anyway, that's not before I heard a little voice call out "Chine Teacher!" (shit, I knew I couldn't escape them all day long) at which point a child who I hardly recognized took a picture with the foreign teacher... it's so tough being a z list celebrity.  Anyway, I took a LOT of pictures at the zoo and in Flower World which will be up on FB soon! And by soon, I mean next year.


More pictures for your viewing pleasure after the jump!

Music Monday: Epik Comback

Added bonus to album purchasers, that symbol on the bottom right is an ACTUAL guitar pick with 99 density. Genius, though I think I could only use it with my bass... which I never pick... it's still genius! Epik High's name has always been around, but I never listened to their songs. By the time I started listening to Korean music, they were already on an extended hiatus. Their latest album has proven that good things come to those who wait. It wins the award for album of the year in my opinion (BIG BANG's Alive and Still Alive were EPs and special editions respectively). I don't know if there was a blue moon when they were recording, because every song on the album is perfection. I love the way they rap over different genres. Sometimes alternative rock, sometimes electronic, sometimes pop, sometimes R&B, etc. It's a great combination and reintroduces the genre in a different way. Even if you're not into rap (or listening to a song you may not u...

Why I will never drive in Korea: Reason #32

I honestly don't know how this happened, but I'm really not that surprised. My theory is the first car was stopped, and the second car slowly continued to push forward? Look at that angle! I would not want to get out of that car. AWKWARD. More pics after the jump!
