South Korea, I love how...

your prices don't reflect the fact that you are a first-world nation

you chase me down after I've dropped W1,000 (~USD1.00) just because it's the right thing to do

your transportation is ridiculously efficient, clean and inexpensive, not to mention easy to navigate

your restaurants serve what seems to be 100s of mini side dishes but I never pay more than W15,000

your airports resemble malls

your department store food courts offer delicious food-- in style

your T-money card allows me to catch a bus, buy snacks at GS25 and make a phone call

your accessories are cute and can be found anywhere

your capital has various coffee shops to choose from in every single corner: Caffe Bene, Paris Baguette, Holly's Coffee, Coffee Bean, oh yeah and Starbucks:)

your street food is addicting

I can say yeogiyo to catch a server's attention

I will never go thirsty because there are little water dispensers everywhere

I can choose my own seat at the movie theatre

I can find socks, earrings, 80s costume attire, eggs, cupcakes and tights at your subway stations

you have various kinds of kimchi

your capital's subway system plays little songs so that I wake up on time for my transfer

you send out missionaries to various parts of the world to serve those in need

there are noreabangs in every corner that allow me to sing my heart out

I can actually find shoes that fit me

your big stores like Homeplus and Emart have catchy songs

your couples  are very matchy-matchy and proud of it

you have cutesy cartoons to display directions, safety precautions and menu options

great my adventure is here!

Sarangheyo Hanguk!
