southkoreanfood:

KOREAN BARBECUE: You grill your own meat in front of you and enjoy it with a variety of side dishes. The Korean way to eat it is wrapping rice, meat, vegetables, and sauces around the lettuce leaves (called SSAM). Great with Soju.

Seoulciology, why?

itsseoulciology:

As a student of Sociology for the last 4 years and a student of culture, life, tradition, and people for all my life, I want to really take and give a strong glimpse at what it means for this WOC to invest her time and passion into a foreign culture. Foreign for her, Foreign for the U.S. 

Let the Seoul searching begin. :)

Baby don’t cry, You stand vacantly alone
Don’t worry, It may be lonely but you’re not the only one
Look beside you, you’re not alone
Don’t cry, You stand vacantly alone
Don’t worry, It may be lonely but you’re not the only one
Look beside you, you’re not alone

— Oh Mom

FOR ROXY~~
