The first part of my day is being woken up by construction on the weekdays (screaming girls on the weekends). They are building a new subway line, which is sweet, but I hope that it's finished before I leave.
If I'm going shopping, then I jump on the subway. My closest station is Balsan (pronounced sort of like pie-san). It's on the purple line, which is also the line I need to take to Dongdaemun to shop.
We need to hydrate before we go shopping, so Phil buys a soda from a street vendor.
We also grab some food from the Dongdaemun Market. This is stir fried pork intestines, I believe. It tastes good, but it's very chewy. Andrew couldn't eat it (lame-o) so I ate most of this and Andrew ate the noodles. Then he got a deep fried hot dog covered in French fries. (I'll get a picture of that soon. I can't believe they don't have them in the US!)
Now we're ready to shop! We're going to Doota, which is in the background.
This is in the underground area of Doota. Lots of shops and people.
Phil is looking for the perfect shirt. Could this be the one?
I don't know why blogger won't rotate the picture. I rotated it in iPhoto, but that still doesn't work. Anyway, can anyone figure out what this shirt is trying to say? Konglish...
More Konglish. Peace and bombs in the same bubble? Hmmmm.
Leaving the market via the shoe area of Dongdaemoon. Phil likes.
Yeah, this is the subway theater. We can sit and watch performances on our way back home. Pretty classy.
Picking up supplies for the night. I think this was about $9 for 3 liters. Soju is too cheap! PS We did NOT buy this ridiculous bottle.
We did buy this though. Because we are stylish. And we needed the fiber.
And at the end of the night, Phil (pronounced "peel") and I are left to our own devices in Shinchon/Hongdae. Then we take a taxi home because the subway is closed. And that's the end of my day!
