Also, smoking is pretty popular among Korean men and all you have to do is stop by a stand on the street and buy a fresh pack of Cigalettes (see attached picture). Then you can go home and watch either of two channels strictly dedicated to video games. That's right. Sometimes I watch a bunch kids play Starcraft on TV at home. I found out that the kids are professionals raking in up to 300 grand a year in American dollars. Supposedly, for really big games, with the best players playing each other, you can get crowds of 100,000 people crowding into a stadium or plaza to watch the game on a big screen. Re -f-ing- diculous.
Oh yeah, and if anybody wants me to send back any Tommy Hilfiger, I mean Tommy Atkins bags, they got an outlet store in Seoul (see pics). I should be able to get 'em real cheap. Just let me know.
