Some more random pictures for your enjoyment. Taken across my travels across Seoul and Korea, they're a reflection of, well, absolutely nothing - but they're fun to look at:
A pretty cool mural - seen near Chungjeongno station.
If I'm going to get my smile 'designed' somewhere, a D+ is not the grade I want to give it.
What?! Cauliflower in Korea? WOW. For those of you reading outside of Korea, cauliflower has not been seen in a market before this during my time in Korea (since March 2008). I suspect it's not grown in large quantities, but I'm hoping that changes. Found near Nowon station at a place called L-Mart.
I love how animals serve themselves - this poor oblivious chicken serves himself with a beer to keep things interesting.
The Invisible Man - one of three hiding behind newspapers in Hyehwa.
OK, so it's an ad - but it's a cute one. I love the little girl's face - it screams 'did you fart on it?'
Need a sticker for your door / window / table / whatever? Or just want to learn some Korean? Here's the place to go - a street vendor near Konkuk University station (line 2).
Best caption wins a cookie. Found in Hongdae.
They're finally up and working - a bevy of electronic touch-screen devices in every subway station offering a subway map, an internet phone allowing you to call anywhere in Korea, and a number of other related services. It's a shame they can't transmit a WiFi signal so I can use my iPod in the subway station, but meh... Some are still covered with a fabric cover - apparently not all of the computer components have been received / installed...
Matchmaker, matchmaker / make me a match / find me a find / catch me a catch... I'm not precisely certain what we're advertising for, but the English wording seems fairly clear. That's one way to boost Korea's birth rate, I guess... Telephone number blurred since I'm not advertising for them (not for free, at least).
Austin Powers called - he wants his awesome color scheme back. If those cars don't see you, they're blind.
