HOT HOT HOT!!!


The real summer has started here in Korea.

Now it's time for vacation~

Everybody will leave for summer vacation but the city will be less crowded. Otherwise, it might be filled with tourists and travellers from overseas, instead.

No more fine dust or yellow dust, but the humid heat invasion.

However, I myself prefer winter season to summer.
How about you?


Generally, this is some of most popular news in Korea as of now:
  • US and N. Korea held talks to discuss the details of an agreement to repatriate the remains of American troops killed during the 1950-53 Korean War.

  • The annual Seoul Queer Festival took place in central Seoul, Saturday.

  • Workers from the two largest korean rival airlines get together in protest:
    Korean Air Lines and Asiana Airlines

  • South Korea's minimum wage for next year has been set at 8,350 won ($ 7.37) per hour.


In my point of view:
  • Yes, on Saturday, I was on metro train in Seoul and saw lots of foreigners who didn't seem to be tourists nor travellers. Probably they were participating in Seoul Queer Festival, I guess.

  • The wage has been set to increases by 10.9 percent for next year. It's a good news for some, but critically bad news for some. Around you, there will be a lot of people running small businesses, who cannot afford their employees that much. Some of them are your father, mother, couzins ....


There cannot be always good news.
In spite of that,

Wish you have a good night :)
