The host fam took me on a weekend vacation to Seocheon, which is a little vacation town on the west coast. Yes, the beach. Yes, it is freezing cold.
It was a pretty good time. I like family bonding and there was quite a bit of that going on. I'm really lucky to have such a relaxed, fun-loving homestay. We didn't really do much--spent about 20 minutes taking pictures on the beach, then eating, and then the adults were all drinking and playing Go Stop while I hung out with the kids watching Twilight and the MNET Asian Music Awards (equivalent of the MTV Awards, except with 300% more Taeyang performances YES).
We also went to a little fish market, where the host family found it hilarious to see my reaction when they picked out a live fish, had a dude hit it on the head with a hammer, then fillet it while it's still futilely flapping around and bleeding everywhere. That was gross.
*also, 일박이일 = One Night, Two Days, a popular TV program where a group of celebrities are taking to various locations and given "challenges" to determine everything from what meal you eat to where you sleep.
The hotel we stayed at was shaped like a clump of mushrooms. lol wat?
Min Kyeong is my little buddy. She's always linking arms with me and holding my hand when we go places. AAAAA-dorable.
Sae Yeob, who's leaving in a little over a month for college in America. He speaks the most English so we end up sharing a lot more than other two. (Note: he's wearing a hat because he got a straight perm and he's all super freaked out about his hair now. Oh, Korean boys.)
