Dwe Jun.

We took the Korail train to DweJun to see my Grandma

My journey there was short but it was filled with new and interesting things.

While I was there I got this thing called Sport massage.

It hurt. I hated it. I screamed. I hit the person.

And after I felt GREAT.

But i will NEVER do it again.

(JANE DOOO IT!)

Another thing I went and saw was the public markets. Ya know..

Public markets. You only see in dramas.
Where the guy and girl always go on their dates.

And the girl pretends like shes never seen anthing like it before.

-_-

Everything was sooo interesting and surreal. I was VERY excited to roam around. You should've seen me I was truly like a little kid.


드라마에서만 봐 왔던 재래시장! ..... 남자랑 같이 와야돼는데.. 사촌 오빠랑 오고. 뭡니까 이게?
그래도! 너무 신기했다 모든게.

Things I saw......

미꾸라지!! (I don't know that is in English. 쏘리.)

EEL. It was HUGE. The 아저씨 told me I had to pay him for commercializing it.

" 출연료 받아야지!"

I like turrrrtles.

soo fresh. looked so good. stinky

They were sooo korean-ish I just had to take pictures of them.

Especially the 매주 (the thing you make 된장 out of) & dried 고추.

It really made it seem like I was out of seattle and in Korea.

I felt like I was on the Travel Channel.

너무 한국적인 인물들. 매주, 말린 고추, 그리고 여러가지 나물 종류.

특히 매주와 말린 고추. 보면서 정말 한국이구나... 라고 늦꼈다.

왠지 너무나도 한국적인 냄새를 풍기는 매주 와 고추.. 난 좋다!

The strawberries here are sooo DELICIOUS. Actually all of the fruits here are. They just taste better than the ones back home. Don't they look BOMB? There were like 10 rows of these strawberries. As I was passing by I couldn't help but to take pictures of them.... and buy them.

맛있었다.

So why did I take pictures of these.....things.

I was taking pictures of the strawberries (cause they were soooo pretty and delicious looking) and the owner of these .... things says to me.

"Take pictures of the potatoes too.. they're pretty too!"

딸기가 너무 예뻐서 딸기를 사진 찍고 갈려고하는참에..

어떤 아주머니께서 나에게 말했다..

" 감자도 찍어!!! 감자도 예뻐!!"

그레서 난... 할수없이 찍어줬다.

Ho dduk! I could not just pass by without eating it.

OMY..... i'm glad i did. There was a HUGE line.

But I patiently waited.

3 for $1.00

Good Deal. Ohhh Yea.

호떡! 이걸 보고 그냥 갈수는 없었다. 줄이 장난아니게 길었지만!

난 꿋꿋이 기달렸다..... 호떡을 먹을려고.

참~ 잘했어 다형아... 잘~ 기달렸어!

굿!

3게에 1,000원!

Spring Vegetables.
While I was running around the market this is what my mother was doing.
Shopping... for spring vegetables.
If I couldnt resist the 호떡. She couldn't resist these.
She bought a suitcase worth of vegetables.
A suitcase that I had to carry back to the train station..
On the train.... and all the way back to Il San.
By the way the next day my arms were sore.

내가 신나게 돌아 다니는 동안 엄마가는 할머니와 나물 구경에 신이나았었다.
엄마:"어머~~ 이 봄 나물들 어떡하니? 내가 이거 보고 안 살수가 없잖니?? 그치 다형아?"
나: 엄마... 이거 다 어디가지고 갈꺼야? 삼촌네? 거기까지 어떻해 들고가? 우리 안그래도 들고갈 짐 많은데....!"
엄마: " 수트케이스 가지고 왔잖아 거기다 넣으면 돼. 니가 들어."

익스큐즈미...?!! 왓 어바웃트 유?!!?!!
