People met on my backpacking 196 - A great Korean and American pair who are both physically and intellectually fit. . While in Pattaya, I met an extremely attractive young American. He was a New Yorker who traveled to Bangkok with his girlfriend and then stopped in Pattaya. His sweetheart was a Korean American residing in S. Carolina. Of course, she was good in English. Guess what language do the three people speak in this case? Inexperienced people might think that Koreans speak Korean whereas Americans speak English. Of course, this happens, but the majority of them exclusively speak English as their official language. . The reason is simple. There is no trouble or misunderstanding when all three persons comprehend the same language. Otherwise, one foreigner is quite inquisitive about what the two folks say in their own tongue. In certain circumstances, the foreigner misunderstands or doubts. So I made sure to translate what the Koreans said again. As a result, conversation remains more fun and helpful. . This time, all three of us spoke in English the entire time. First and foremost, they talked fully about their experiences in Korea, particularly in Seoul and Busan. From start to finish, they discussed K-food. First and foremost, the New Yorker declared the "Mung bean pancake" at Gwangjang Market in Jongno to be the greatest he had ever had. His girlfriend next to him agreed with his claim. They said that they had visited Gwangjang Market three times. . They traveled to Busan since Busan is her hometown. I had a lot to say about Busan because I grew up there, but the age difference was a barrier. What hasn't changed is that while we were in Busan, we enjouyed plenty of raw fish. The New Yorker, like most Americans, was grossed out by raw fish, sea squirts, and sea cucumbers, all of which Koreans like. Sushi is now regarded as a high-end dish not only in the USA, but all across the world, yet he still didn't like it. . I said to them, "Have you tried the drug kimbap at the Gwangjang Market?" When I finished, they both said, "Of course!" The logic behind it was much more interesting. They were aware that drugs were not allowed in Korea. So they asked the restaurant's owner why. And they knew why. They were quite negative about drugs. The New Yorker was even more harsh. . He was completely New Yorker. His brother developed a drug addiction less than a year after hemp was legalized in New York. Since then, the entire family has campaigned to abolish drugs, claiming that they are devils that tear apart and murder families. She wholeheartedly agreed with him. She was a fortunate girl with excellent Korean parents. Lovely to see her. I invited her to take a photo with me, but she was embarrassed, so only the two of us took a picture. I parted ways, wishing them the best for the future. . *It's difficult to explain why the United States is so crooked. Obviously, the USA now is not the same as the one I learned about and experienced. Not only New York, but many other cities, including Philadelphia, San Francisco, and Seattle, are experiencing this. According to estimates, 80,000 Americans die each year as a result of drug use. undoubtedly this is not correct. I get an uneasy feeling, but I also believe that the United States' might is substantial. . **Anyway, when I return to New York, I want to see the amazing America of Central Park, the Statue of Liberty, the Brooklyn Bridge, the UN Building, Times Square, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Rockefeller Center, and so on, while overlooking the Empire State Building with the same pleasant and relaxed mind as before. . ***Politicians are the problem. Because they are the ones that legalize and punish drugs. The more critical issue is that the people of that country chose them. Just right, 'You made your bed and now you live in it.' Well, actually, Thailand has already legalized narcotics. I see hemp leaf signs everywhere. I feel terrible. What's next? What about S. Korea? Seoul? It's horrifying just to think about it. It makes me think of living in hell. . Thanks for reading. .. |
