Rainy Season in Korea

Wednesday, July 23rd, 2008

Right now Korea is having its rainy season. Although it might not be as intense as rainy seasons in some parts of the world, the rainy season in Korea can make you start hating rain to an extent (in my personal point of view, haha) - and it’s called 장마 (jang ma). This post is not so much about the 장마 itself because it isn’t THAT interesting. I just wanted to share a video with all of you who read the KClass Blog :)

Here’s a video I took on a bus from where I live (near 동대문) to 강남 (a major downtown area in Seoul) on my way to go meet a friend.  The bus goes over one of the many bridges that go over 한강 (Han River) which is about 1 km wide on average. After the bus goes over Han River and you’ll recognize some signs that have some words you must already know written on them :)

그럼, 비디오 재미있게 보세요!  (Well then, enjoy the video!)

    !! I saw the sign for the 노래방 and I think I saw a person (or 2) sitting infront of it. And I couldn’t really hear or understand any of the conversation on the bus but I did hear 빨리 ^^
    The weather seemed so gloomy! 나는 비를 안 좋아요.
