We didn't know who was going to play that night but we decided to go because it was cheap. When we arrived there we were really surprised because there was nobody except us and the band member.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;When the show started, there was one cute girl on stage and she said her friends were not coming so she prepared some &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;karaoke&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; to &lt;/span&gt;sing... but she sang just one song&lt;span&gt;.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt; &lt;/span&gt;I was really disappointed!! But the live was getting better and better as it went on, so when the live show finished i was quite satisfied. The last band National Pigeon Unity were especially exceptional!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-5267276904322128929?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/5267276904322128929/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=5267276904322128929' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/5267276904322128929'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/5267276904322128929'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2008/02/live-night-again.html' title='Live night again'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R68jwWnq0RI/AAAAAAAAADg/ieWxuJ637bo/s72-c/IMG_6021.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-9216314787784949592</id><published>2008-02-10T23:03:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2008-12-13T19:51:45.927+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Happy lunar new year</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R68jA2nq0QI/AAAAAAAAADY/zkHuNuAT0lQ/s1600-h/DSCF2779.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R68jA2nq0QI/AAAAAAAAADY/zkHuNuAT0lQ/s200/DSCF2779.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5165385795186118914" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend Will lives in Korea but he lives outside of Seoul, so I haven't seen him for over 3 months. Finally I met him today. Since we have new years holiday for 5 days he came up to Seoul. In the evening with some other friends we hit a bar and enjoyed each others company.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We planed to go Donald's aunties house on new years day. If we were to go we needed to get up at 6 o'clock  in the morning but we drank and chatted till 5 o'clock so after falling asleep we couldn't wake up one hour later... I was sad to miss the traditional ceremony.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-9216314787784949592?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/9216314787784949592/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=9216314787784949592' title='33 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/9216314787784949592'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/9216314787784949592'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2008/02/happy-lunar-new-year.html' title='Happy lunar new year'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><media:thumbnail xmlns:media='http://search.yahoo.com/mrss/' url='http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R68jA2nq0QI/AAAAAAAAADY/zkHuNuAT0lQ/s72-c/DSCF2779.JPG' height='72' width='72'/><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>33</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-8097240112803950448</id><published>2008-02-07T00:02:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2008-12-13T19:51:46.097+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Ski trip</title><content type='html'>Last weekend I went skiing with Donald, Richard, Scott and Gyoungmi in Yong-Pyoung. I was a little nervous since I hadn't skied for over 10 years. However after a few practice runs, I soon got into a good flow. After a fun day of skiing we stayed overnight in a town just a bus ride away from the resort. We killed time in the evening with a few hands of poker and some drinks. I won the poker game and collected the pot! That's a first for me.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R6nOkh4KHhI/AAAAAAAAADQ/tKv-srD-yjA/s1600-h/DSCF2760.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R6nOkh4KHhI/AAAAAAAAADQ/tKv-srD-yjA/s200/DSCF2760.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5163885574721510930" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next day we woke up a little late and rushed down to the slopes.

We can celebrate new years again! Since we have no work tomorrow we decided to head down to Hongdae to dance the night away. However, we hit up a club only to find an empty dance floor. We were thinking that since that since tomorrow is a holiday people would be partying tonight. I guess we thought wrong. We even hit up a few popular bars to find the same lifeless atmosphere. Giving up we returned home. Now I am sitting here writing this entry and not partying. I guess everyone is already departing for their home towns or didn't want to travel with a hangover in the morning.

I was surprised when I woke up!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;12th January 2008&lt;br /&gt;I was killing some time in Hongdae campus park waiting to go to a gig. The snow from the day before was frozen so the park still had that winter wonderland feeling. The pond was iced over too. The only colours in the park came from some lonely berries barely hanging on to their branches.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R5LuIEVpzSI/AAAAAAAAACw/UUFNDEKt7_c/s1600-h/IMG_5555.JPG"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 286px; height: 214px;" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_IgDruzYDTdE/R5LuIEVpzSI/AAAAAAAAACw/UUFNDEKt7_c/s200/IMG_5555.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5157446345663565090" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After a bite to eat &lt;a href="http://dorty.reptaro.net/"&gt;Richard&lt;/a&gt; and I went to a gig he was writing a report for.

It contained a lot of Japanese food and a cute pair of leather converse. Actually, at first, I didn't realise I got a gift or two because Donald and Richard tore open the box and raided it for the food while I was engrossed in a game. My mum sent them their favourite Japanese food and some Japanese facial care products.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;17th January 2008&lt;br /&gt;My friend Li-Young is currently working in a bar in Shinchon. We rolled on down there to see what she is up to and to check the bar out. The bar was called Good Bar and is a little dank. However, the walls are covered with an interesting photo display and the cocktails came in interesting glasses.

I wanted to take Richard sightseeing but it was hard to find anywhere to go because there isn't really much to see. Anyway we went to a theme park called Space World and a dinosaur museum. Actually both of them are really for children but Richard's mental age is similar to a child so it made sense to go and he seemed to enjoy it! hehe.

Also I did realise that my town has some nice things like the dinosaur museum. I really didn't notice it before. Also my home town friends were doing well.

What is a special drink? Well let me tell you! It's made from beer, soju, meat, vegetables, fruit, cake etc all mixed together. One year ago my friend had to drink the most disgusting special drink. It included dried scalp, spit, natto (a Japanese food that looks disgusting and is made from gone off beans) and dirt from inside a shoe all mixed in with wine, beer and whiskey. Eww! Special drinks are not just a pint glass full but a large bowl full! Yet they have to drink all!

First we went to a bamboo forest. Actually was it a bamboo mountain?? At the entrance we were greeted by a panda (if I look closely the eyes of it were really scary!).&lt;br /&gt;We looked around the forest to find it's actually really big. In addition the map was really rough. So we lost our way easily. We asked the way back to the entrance but everyone else was lost too but we learned which ways not to go from those with the unfortunate experience of doing so. Finally we&lt;br /&gt;found our way out, &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0"&gt;yay&lt;/span&gt;!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060819+traditional+house"&gt;Traditional&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060819+traditional+house"&gt; house&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;That night we stayed in a small traditional house. It was pretty good but I could only stay there for one night really. That night we could hear the sound of bugs and a lot of them entered our house as uninvited guests. Also the toilet wasn't fully installed yet so we had to use the toilet the natural way... outside! It was a valuable experience.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060820+steam+train"&gt;Steam train&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The next day we went to a train station which was used by the &lt;span onclick="BLOG_clickHandler(this)" class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2"&gt;Korean&lt;/span&gt; film called "Brotherhood". We took a steam train from there. Initially we rode in the carriage of the train but the experience wasn't enough for us so our Korean friend lets stand on the area between the carriages. A ticket inspector told us that area is off limits and dangerous but our Korean friend confidently said that we were foreigners and convinced that man to let us stay outside. He said if we get hurt he takes no responsibility but we took the risk. It was a pleasant ride!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/1600/140745/044-1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/400/137373/044-1.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;友達と一緒に韓国の南のほうまで旅行に行ってきた。最初に向かったのは竹林の公園。&lt;br /&gt;・・ってゆーか山??。入り口で私達を迎えてくれたのがパンダちゃん（よく見ると目つきがかなり危ない【写↑】）&lt;br /&gt;『あ～　竹だからパンダね・・・』と一人で納得・・・・。ん？？あれ！？まてよ。何かおかしい・・・竹??　あっ!!　違う　竹じゃなくて・・・　笹じゃん!!!パンダって笹だよね??　あれ?　竹も食べるのかな？？よくわかんないし・・・。疑問は置いといて、とにかく中を探索することにした。実はこの竹林結構広いくせに地図が超アバウト・・・思いっきり道に迷って、山中を行ったり来たりして遭難寸前の中、たまに出会う人（同じように迷った人）に『こっちに行くと行き止まりだ』とか『あっちは別ルートにつながっている』とか、さまざまなヒントを得つつ出口にたどり着いた。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/1600/408944/034.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/200/689120/034.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;その晩私達は土でできた家で寝た。友達のお父さんが避暑地用に作った家で、実際に住むとなると一日が限界だけどなかなか可愛い家！夜は虫の大合唱!もちろん色んな虫がゲストで家の中に入ってきます。トイレも大自然の中お外で・・・かなり貴重な体験でした。&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;次の日映画『ブラザーフット』で撮影に使われた機関車を見に行ってきた。機関車の走行中、暗い室内で「外の空気が吸い&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/1600/810025/060.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/x/blogger2/3333/4401/200/1016/060.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;た～い!!」「これじゃ普通の電車と変わんない!!」なんてブーブー言ってると、韓国人の友達が「よし！連結部分に行こう」と言った。実は乗車前に連結している部分は危ないから行っては駄目と言われたんだけど、なぜか友達は「大丈夫、大丈夫」と自信満々!!案の定、車掌さんが注意しにきた。すると友達はおもむろに私達が外国人（国籍；日本・香港・ウェールズ）だということをアピールし始めた。すると車掌さんも『それならしょうがない！楽しんでくれ』と、なぜか快諾!!了承してくれたのはいいけど、安全じゃないんだよね？いいのかな～？？でもまあ親切な車掌さんのおかげで外の空気を味わいながら30分くらいの機関車の旅を楽しんだ。&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060819+bamboo"&gt; &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116300007589275110?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116300007589275110/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116300007589275110' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116300007589275110'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116300007589275110'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/11/trip-trip-trip.html' title='Trip Trip Trip'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116290991665740892</id><published>2006-11-07T22:38:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-18T00:32:22.149+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Robot Museum</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060704+robot+museum"&gt;robot museum &lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/IMG_0120.1.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/IMG_0120.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to the Robot Museum in Seoul. When I entered the museum Ja...Japan!? I expected there to be a lot of Korean robots but it seems Korean doesn't have that many. The main robots on display were Astro Boy, Gundam, Majinga-Z and other Japanese robots like this.  As we went through the museum we found a famous wooden doll and an extraterrestrial... uhh are they robots?!&lt;br /&gt;More besides on that day was just me and my friend. Also I realised something... a girl was following us into every room we went in and locked the doors behind us. I was a little bit worried but finally we could exit. It seems security was strong.

Then we were pushed into another room and they took our photo. So does it suit us?&lt;br /&gt;Next we were led to a traditional Korean hospital and had needles stuck in our skin! It was so scary! Actually it was acupuncture to help our blood flow and not a random attack of a crazy lady with needles.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;ミョンドンの近くにある民芸村!?に行ってきた。・・・っというか連れて行かれた!!そして、一通り見たところで小さな部屋に入れられた。いつの間にか韓服(韓国の伝統的な衣装)を着せられ記念撮影。どう？似合ってる？？？&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116282710563834508?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116282710563834508/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116282710563834508' title='3 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116282710563834508'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116282710563834508'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/11/traditional-village.html' title='Traditional Village'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>3</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116150874063548324</id><published>2006-10-22T17:57:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:51.252+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Seoul forest</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060608+seoul+forest"&gt;seoul forest&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSCF7961.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/DSCF7961.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;My friend wanted to suprise me by taking me to some where that I had never been before. After some effort finding the place, we arrived at &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Seoul forest&lt;/span&gt;. It is this new huge park in Seoul. There are many kinds of trees, play areas, a skatepark, horse training centre, big water features and more besides. We had a nice time walking around and playing in the exercise area. We filmed some stupid videos of us playing around. It's a nice place to relax on a day off.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;友達から遊びに行こうと誘われた。・・・が何度聞いても『suprise』らしく教えてくれなかった！到着するとそこはソウルにある公園だった!!公園の中にはスケート場や乗馬場、大きな噴水まであった！結構大きな公園で一日中歩いて見て回った。最後に運動する器具がたくさんあるところを見つけた。そこで面白ビデオをとりまくった・・・周りで見ていた韓国人の冷たい光線を感じながら『外国人だから大丈夫!!』という。何の根拠もない自信で撮影会は夕方まで続く・・・&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116150874063548324?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116150874063548324/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116150874063548324' title='5 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116150874063548324'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116150874063548324'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/seoul-forest.html' title='Seoul forest'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>5</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116117554390615225</id><published>2006-10-18T18:57:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:51.163+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Everland</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060514+everland"&gt;everland&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I made a new friend from England, his name is Harry.

So together with the other two people I know from the UK who live here, we went to Everland! Everland is a big theme park outside of Seoul. It's located on a hill but we didn't think about the order of the rides to ride on and just went here and there so it ended it being a strain on our legs. Our favourite ride was the roller coaster. Since it was on the top of the hill, I felt a great sense of height and it made the ride more exciting. I wonder if they planned for that to happen?&lt;br /&gt;Anyway we finished doing what we wanted in the theme park and then decided to ride the roller coaster again. Unfortunately we all couldn't ride together this time, so me and one friend waited for our turn. As we sat ready to ride the power all of a sudden went out. However, our friends who went first experienced the power cut during the ride. They said because of that it was more scary and more fun to ride. Wow! It was the first time a power cut had ever happened in the Everland.As we were looking around we yet again saw a strange but kind of interesting couple.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00609.0.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/320/DSC00609.0.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There was a pair look trend happening in Korea at the time for couples. They were such a couple. They wore respective tee shirts saying, "This is my boyfriend" (girl's tee) and "This is my girlfriend" (boy's tee) with arrows pointing to each other. Very funny! However, if they stand the wrong side of each other their respective arrows point at different people. Opps! Also while wearing these tee shirts they can't separate without there tee shirt suggesting someone else is their partner. Imagine if the guy is taking a pee in the men's toilet, his tee will point to the guy next to him and will cause some strange looks from the other men hehe.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;初エバーランドに行ってきた。エバーランドは小高い丘（斜面）にある為乗りたい乗り物が園内に散らばってる場合ちゃんと順序を組み立てないと大変なことになる!! その事実を知らない私たちはあっさり『坂道地獄』に陥いった・・・。一番のお気に入りはジェットコースター!!!丘の一番高いところにあるから景色が最高!!・・・ってゆうか高すぎてちょっとあせった!!&lt;br /&gt;とりあえず園内の行きたいところを一通りして最後にジェットコースターにもう一度乗ろうということになった。が運悪く今回は友達と２組に別れて乗ることになった。先に友達が出発しそのすぐ後私たちもジェットコースターに乗り込んだ&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00620.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/DSC00620.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;。安全バーを握り締め いざ 出発!!・・・すると・・・「ガクンッ」目の前が真っ暗になった。なんだろうと思って回りを見ても明かりが無い！すぐに停電だと分かった。私たちは出発してすぐだったから良かったけど、友達は途中いきなり暗くなって見えない中を進んだらしい・・・。でも まあ貴重な体験だったかも!?なんせエバーランドでの停電は『初』らしい!!次の日に新聞に載っていた。&lt;br /&gt;あっ!!!エバーランドでまたまたおもしろカップル発見!!彼氏の背中には『This is my girl friend→』彼女の背中には『This is my boyfriend←』・・・と書いてあるペアルックのTシャツ。ここで重要なの文章の横にある矢印!!!彼氏が左側、彼女が右側を並んで歩くとお互いを矢印が指して成立する。でも・・・もしうっかり反対に歩いたり、一人で歩いたりすると道行く色々な人が、そのカップルの彼女や彼氏になってしまう!!例えば彼氏がトイレにいったとする・・・すると!!　なんと隣で用を足している人は彼の彼女だということに!!　ぷぷっ&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116117554390615225?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116117554390615225/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116117554390615225' title='8 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116117554390615225'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116117554390615225'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/everland.html' title='Everland'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>8</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116099767726709124</id><published>2006-10-16T18:41:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:51.044+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Buddha festival</title><content type='html'>&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00390.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/320/DSC00390.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060430+buddha+festival"&gt;&lt;span style="text-decoration: underline;"&gt;Buddha festival&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;My friend called me to go to the Buddha festival that night!! Actually I'm not interested in Buddha at all but I love festivals!! So of course I joined him and other friends too.  On the way, I saw that people had lanterns on the opposite side of the subway platform. They were on the way home obviously... Why??... Ohhhhh Nooooooooo!!!!... It can't be!! Anyway we decided to try and go there. When we were arriving people said it had already finished but actually it was still lively with some beautiful lanterns hanging up and since a traditional Korean dance performance was still going on, we didn't feel like it had already finished! Finally, we won because we saw the biggest event of Buddha festival - the live concert! It was soooo cool with beautiful pink paper falling from the sky. Actually it turned out we missed the lantern parade but without seeing that we all still had a wonderful evening! Happy birthday Buddha!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日友達から電話があった。ブッタフェスティバル（お釈迦様の祭り）に行かないか？というものだった。実際ブッタには何の興味も無いけどお祭りという響きに誘われて。２つ返事でOKした。&lt;br /&gt;シンチョン駅に向かう途中、何人か灯篭を持った人たちが私たちと逆方向に歩いていた。おかしいなと薄々感付いてはいたけど、あえて気付かない振りをしていた。でも会場がある駅についてその不安は更に大きくなった。そう!!向かいのプラットホームには誰が見ても祭りを終えて家に帰る電車を待つ人たちの群れ・・・ま・・・まさか!!&lt;br /&gt;会場に着くとすぐに祭りは終わったのかを尋ねてみた・・・おじさんによると、どうやら終わってしまったらしい・・・。でも会場はまだ にぎやかで提灯も凄く綺麗だったのでとりあえず見学することにした。&lt;br /&gt;すると最後に一番大きなイベントが残っていて。紙吹雪の中 みんなで輪になって踊った。ネバって残ってて良かった!!・・・ってゆーか あの家に帰る大量の人たちと おじさんはに騙された!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116099767726709124?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116099767726709124/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116099767726709124' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116099767726709124'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116099767726709124'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/buddha-festival.html' title='Buddha festival'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116092709834315015</id><published>2006-10-16T00:21:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:50.944+09:00</updated><title type='text'>English village</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060422+english+village"&gt;English village&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00301.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/DSC00301.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to &lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;English Village&lt;/span&gt; with my friends. As we arriving there we could see a Hollywood  sign on the hills that said "English Village". Also in the entrance there is a quite impressive fake Stonehenge. Am I in America or England?...  No I'm in Korea. What a strange feeling. Also in the town there was no Korean language just English... The strange feeling grew. Actually as we walked around it became apparent that many of the Koreans couldn't speak English. It's a rule in the town to speak English and even the staff are all native English speakers. The staff looked so frustrated when a Korean broke the rules and spoke Korean. Of course the native speakers couldn't understand the Korean and a Korean member of the staff had to be called over to offer assistance.　It was fun to walk around the town and I was impressed at how enthusiastic the staff were. A nice escape from the sometimes over powering sound of the Korean language that I experience in the city on a day by day basis.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSCF6783.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; float: left; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/DSCF6783.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;今日は友達と朝からEnglish Village（英語村!?）に行った。English Villageに近づいてくると何やら怪しい看板が・・・え？ハリウッド？？そう まるであの有名なハリウッドの看板のごとく小さな丘の上に掲げられた文字・・。そして入り口には当たり前のように作られたストーンヘンジのレプリカ・・・　アメリカ？イギリス？？どっち!!!　いや ここはまぎれも無く韓国だ!!&lt;br /&gt;戸惑いながらとにかく中へ入ることにした。入場の前に場内でに簡単なルールが説明された。ルールとは場内では英語しかしゃべってはいけないということ!!しかし軽い気持ちで遊びにきている韓国ファミリーの皆さんはもちろん英語なんてしゃべれるわけも無く、入場1秒であっさりルールを破る。・・・てゆーか誰も英語なんてしゃべってないし・・・お店のスタッフはすべてネイティブ（英語をしゃべる人）だからちょっと韓国を忘れられたけど。でもお店の中でも 韓国ファミリーの皆さんが韓国語で注文を・・・もちろんお店の人たちに韓国語が通じる訳も無く・・・明らかに もううんざりだという顔をした店員は韓国人スタッフを呼び対処。私たちが英語で注文した時には『あら！あなた達英語しゃべれるの？』　と言わんばかりの驚いた顔をし、とても嬉しそうに対応してくれた！ここのルールって意味あるの？と思いながら英語でバイトできると思って働きに来た人たちにちょっと同情した。&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116092709834315015?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116092709834315015/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116092709834315015' title='2 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116092709834315015'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116092709834315015'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/english-village.html' title='English village'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>2</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116092142602773781</id><published>2006-10-15T22:19:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:50.848+09:00</updated><title type='text'>aquarium</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060419+aquarium"&gt;aquarium&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I always wanted to go the Coex aquarium after hearing how good it is. So one day with a friend I finally went. Actually it was as impressive as I had heard. I was so happy walking around it. I really liked the otters play fighting in the water and the jellyfish were fascinating. It was a wonderful afternoon (except for entrance price hehe).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;今日は前から一度行きたいと思っていたコエックスの水族館にやっと行くことになった。思ってたよりも大きくて綺麗な水族館だった。とくにアシカとくらげがお気に入り♪&lt;br /&gt;アシカは3匹で水の中を追いかけごっこしながら休むことなく泳ぎ続け、最後にはロープを取り合って喧嘩（汗）・・・でもそんな喧嘩も可愛く見えてしまう自分に年を感じる今日この頃・・・ふぅ&lt;br /&gt;くらげは何とも綺麗で優雅で　結構長い間ぼーっと見てた。まさに癒し系!!!&lt;br /&gt;癒し系といえば忘れちゃいけないのがこの魚!!!&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00249.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; float: right; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/200/DSC00249.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;よく見て　よく見て!!　&lt;br /&gt;そう!!　魚が笑ってる!!!!!&lt;br /&gt;よほど間抜けずらして見ている私の顔が可笑しかったのか。ただ単に私をバカにして笑ってたのか。なんにしろ写真を撮る間はモデルばりの笑顔キープで待っててくれたなかなか憂いヤツ。&lt;br /&gt;おかげで楽しい午後だった。また行きたいな!!高いけど・・・誰かおごって!!!!&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116092142602773781?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116092142602773781/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116092142602773781' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116092142602773781'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116092142602773781'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/aquarium.html' title='aquarium'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116090965780445564</id><published>2006-10-15T19:41:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:50.752+09:00</updated><title type='text'>zoooooo</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060412+zoooooo"&gt;zoo&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;After school my friend said to me, "Shall we go to Grand Children's park?" I thought what a strange name because it suggests a park for grand children. Until we arrived at the park I was talking about the strange name of this park with my Japanese friend. When we arrived there we realized that actually the park is called 'Children's Grand Park'. My foreign friend made a stupid mistake with the name to cause us all that confusion. Anyway it was a fun day. We saw lots of animals and enjoyed the blooming SAKURA. Oh and we saw an over enthusiastic photographer:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/1600/DSC00125.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/5055/4022/320/DSC00125.jpg" alt="" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;He was taking pictures of his girlfriend causing her a world of embarrassment. For example in the picture above he's laying on the road taking her picture for a dynamic shot of her head with the SAKURA.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;学校が終わって友達が「グランドチルドレンパークに行こう」と言った（英語で）。直訳すると『孫公園』変な名前だなと思いつつも暇なので行くことにした。&lt;br /&gt;行きの電車の中で日本人の友達と「公園の名前孫公園って変だよね!?」「私たちの聞き間違い??」なんて言いながら、おそるおそるもう一度確認してみた。「ねえ！名前おかしくない？？グランドチルドレンパークであってるんだよね？？？」すると彼はきょとんとした顔をして「何がおかしいの？？あってるよ!!」と自信満々!!!&lt;br /&gt;そして、やっと公園に到着!!&lt;br /&gt;ん!?　あれ??　名前ちょっと違うような・・・。そうです違うんです!!正式な名前は『チルドレンズ　グランドパーク』　直訳すると『子供の（為の）大きな公園』　はい　大爆笑!!!&lt;br /&gt;単語の位置が逆になるだけでこうも名前の印象って変わるんだなとつくづく感心した（笑)&lt;br /&gt;そしてもう一つ私たちのツボにみごとハマったのが上の写真のカップル!!全然知らないカップルだけど、今しかチャンスはないと思い、シャッターを押した。&lt;br /&gt;写真の彼氏　彼女をいかに綺麗に撮るかに夢中になるあまり。最後には道路に寝そべって写真を撮りだした・・・なにもそこまでしなくても・・・彼女のほうが凄く恥ずかしそうに　でも文句を言わず立っている姿に愛を感じました（笑）&lt;br /&gt;でもきっと綺麗な桜と彼女の写真がとれたはず！？&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/36056325-116090965780445564?l=wanwanhana.blogspot.com'/&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/feeds/116090965780445564/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='https://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=36056325&amp;postID=116090965780445564' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116090965780445564'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/36056325/posts/default/116090965780445564'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://wanwanhana.blogspot.com/2006/10/zoooooo.html' title='zoooooo'/><author><name>asami</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07094724698203184365</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:extendedProperty xmlns:gd='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005' name='OpenSocialUserId' value='03606679408603415612'/></author><thr:total xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0'>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36056325.post-116090870440993050</id><published>2006-10-15T19:23:00.000+09:00</published><updated>2006-11-17T02:54:50.652+09:00</updated><title type='text'>Yoido</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://reptaro.net/asami/index.php?foldir=20060411+yoido"&gt;Yoido&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I went to Yoido to see the SAKURA flowers and have an afternoon of fun.
