[Korea Life Forum] Bubble Fighter

Mongdori — Thu, 24 Jul 2008 20:53:02 +0900

The only thing cooler than a water gun fight on a hot summer day has to be a virtual water gun fight in an air conditioned room on a hot summer day. [url=http://www.nexon.com/]Nexon[/url] have taken their Kart Rider characters and put them into a 3rd person water gun shooter called [url=http://bf.nexon.com/Contents/Page/Gnx.aspx?url=Home/Index]Bubble Fighter[/url]. The game has just started its [url=http://bf.nexon.com/Contents/Page/Gnx.aspx?url=Info/Event]closed beta[/url] phase.

[Korea Life Forum] Dokdo Death Metal

Mongdori — Mon, 21 Jul 2008 23:57:18 +0900

One of the easiest ways to gain social acceptance in Korea is to agree that the island of Dokdo is Korean territory, not Japanese. But you may still wonder if Korea's rebellious and deep-voiced death metal scene also supports the popular notion the Dokdo is "우리 땅". I think this video answers that question: [naver]http://serviceapi.nmv.naver.com/flash/NFPlayer.swf?vid=BB9EFBE954E1D5C37E07C3271EE7DE5CDF01&outKey=V127f4a8120a30605d277231e17f531b10e29deefc411f794be8b231e17f531b10e29[/naver]

Life can be difficult for a woman smoker in Korea. It's still considered bad form for a woman to smoke in public, which drives most women to smoke in bathrooms or just at home alone.

Mongdori — Tue, 24 Jun 2008 09:42:33 +0900

If you've worked as a teacher, then you've probably formed a negative opinion about eraser shavings. Students, especially the error-prone ones, always leave behind heaps of them. Furthermore, just wiping them off the desk and onto the floor where they can blend in (and add traction) proves difficult because of their sticky nature. However, there are some interesting things you can do with all those eraser scraps. Here's someone who's found a way to make art with them: [naver]http://serviceapi.nmv.naver.com/flash/NFPlayer.swf?vid=64ABDD8B32B4AA55F1C6A6403E5E5E19177C&outKey=V122d0d9ce9a29192611674f0b377609bbe08d7bf28e6c933c34e74f0b377609bbe08[/naver] The Korean word for eraser shavings is 지우개밥, but in this video, she uses the word 지우개똥, meaning "eraser poop." A nice way to tell someone to clean up there eraser shavings would be to say "지우개밥 먹어", meaning "eat your eraser-bap!"

[Events and Happenings] Re: SCUBA Diving in Korea!!!!!!

LCFrigon — Wed, 11 Jun 2008 12:54:00 +0900

Hi everyone, I just wanted to respond to a few emails I have received regarding Deep Blue Quest's course prices. A few emails asked me why they are more expensive than schools in Philippines and Thailand, and others mentioned other clubs here in Korea undercutting the course prices. I have only very recently gotten involved with Deep Blue Quest, and honestly my first reaction was that I thought they were a little expensive as well. That was until I did my homework and actually got to price everything out. Here is what Russell quotes: "The certification course will cost 650.000 Korean Won or $715.00 USD. For this price you will receive the following: Confined Water Training / Knowledge Development 1. All study material and manuals 2. Use of equipment during training 3. Use of pool during training (4 scuba tanks) 4. Lunch on both Saturday and Sunday Certification Tour (Ocean) 1. Transportation (if you can meet the schedule times) 2. Two nights in your own private motel room (Friday and Saturday) 3. Breakfast, lunch and a BBQ on Saturday 4. Breakfast and lunch on Sunday 5. Use of diving equipment during tour 6. Four certification dives 7. Certification card (upon successful completion of course)" At first glance this may seem like a lot of money, but when you break it down it isn't. This includes food, hotels, and equipment, and tanks of air (which he has to buy off of Korean clubs. This also includes the use of equipment that is constantly maintained and fixed when students cause damage. Places in the Philippines and Thailand can offer courses for around 300-450 depending on where you go, but these prices do not cover your hotel, they do not "usually" have as safe as gear, and most of the time need less equipment because of Tropical diving. These prices also do not include the cost of food. I have a friend in Philippines right now doing his Openwater, (cause he is there) and it will cost him 300 for the course alone, then another 210 for a hotel room plus another 50 or so for food. He is also doing less dives on fewer tanks. So it all equals out. Don't get me wrong. Diving in the tropics is awesome, but I am glad that I will get to just go dive there on the reefs and wrecks without needing to spend more of my vacation time reading manuals and doing training. As to the other clubs in Korea doing the training for less. I do not know the other clubs so I can't comment on them. All I do know is that Russell includes everything he says and doesn't scrimp. His BBQs are great. I also know that his training is top notch and he will make your diving safe and enjoyable. Hope this helps, Cheers, Lorne

It boasts of being the only place to get hookah in the city, and they are probably right. Pillows cover the floors, and silk hang from the ceiling and walls. There are two water gardens with floating candles, giving this place quite a charming bohemian feel. They offer wine, beer, tea and hookah, as well as Korean and Armenian food dishes. The jasmine tea coupled with a double apple hookah is lovely, my personal recommendation. Hookah is a Persian flavored tobacco smoked out a waterbowl. They offer mint, apple, melon, and cherry, among others. The flavoring isn’t too strong, as can occasionally occur with hookah. Considering that it’s the only place to smoke hookah in the city, it’s reasonably priced. A hookah bowl is approximately $12. The decorum, the spicy hookah smoke, and the candlelight all gives this bar a relaxing and pleasant ambiance.

[color=#3366FF]Saturday[/color] 11:30-12:30 [url=http://eshebellydancer.com/]Navah Oriental[/url] Belly dance technique depends on fine muscle control of the torso, arms and hips, and on interpretation of the intricate music. The dance is an expression of feeling: joy, love, sorrow, and all the complex emotions of life. We will explore American, Egyptian and Turkish Oriental styles in this class. This is the traditional glitz and glamour style most people imagine when speaking of bellydance. Each week we will learn a series of movements in this style to build up your dance vocabulary. At the end of the month, you will know a complete set of belly dance moves for an entire song. 12:35-13:35 [url=http://eshebellydancer.com/]Navah Training[/url] This class will focus on developing proper technique, precision, endurance, strength and fluidity through a series of drills and conditioning exercises. 13:40-14:40 [url=http://eshebellydancer.com/]Navah Oriental[/url] [color=#660099]Tuesday[/color] 19:00-20:00 [url=http://eshebellydancer.com/]Navah Tribal[/url] Tribal Fusion Belly Dance is a form of modern belly dance generally referring to a combination of American Tribal Style Belly Dance and Cabaret or Egyptian style belly dance.

Each week in this class we will learn a series of movements in this style to build your dance vocabulary up.
