I have been to another 나라 (I'm sorry I don't know how to say 나라 in English). At that time I went to the ticket counter, presented my 여권 (I'm sorry) and went through security and customs. After I made it through all of that, I sang, "Hallelujah!"
ReplyDeleteBrent,
ReplyDeleteHow long have you been studying English? Don't you think that 나라 and 여권 are two of the easiest words to learn in English? No pressure. I'm just teasing you. I think that English is difficult, too. 나라 means "country", like South Korea, and 여권 means "passport".

Bibimbop which has a lot of vegetable, meet materials on rice, and mixe up!!
Bibimbop is very delicious that I can eat it even if I'm not hungry.
Also, making bibimbop is very easy and convinient , so this is also one of the reasons I like bibimbop.
Have you tried Bibimbop?

And My job is special teacher. My class full of joy. My student always happy.

Yunjong,
ReplyDeleteI suppose that most every foreigner living in Korea has found bibimbap to be a good dish to eat. It has many vegetables and is good with pepper paste and rice. Of course there are probably others who haven't gotten used to eating spicy food. Thanks for asking.
I also commend you, Jihye, on your choice of food. I have to admit that when I first came to Korea I didn't like naengmyeon all that well. But then I was introduced to a more spicy naengmyeon at the restaurant near E-Mart and after that I was hooked for life.
Sori, I like your prediction of the future and also that you tell people you have a smartphone. It's true, isn't it? I bet one of the functions I use the most on my phone is the internet because Naver is very helpful in understanding expressions that are difficult to break down when I use a dictionary.
You all can respond to each others' posts like this and I bet it will be a lot more entertaining.:)
