Two Posts to Read

At Seth’s Travelogue, Seth gives a great rundown of the coffee to be found in different countries of Asia.  Korea ranks last.  BURN!

At Jeonnam Life, there’s a nice little article about the perception of English Teachers and G.I.’s in Korea, that is very, very worth reading, despite the overuse of the word “said” in said post.

The money shot:

In closing, Korea I already love you but I would respect you a whole lot more if you were to respect those who come from other lands to assist you and your people. 99% of said individuals are decent, law-abiding folk who come with the best of intentions, hoping to help your citizens whilst at the same time perhaps learning a bit more about the country. Most of said individuals are not bad, vile, lecherous, disease-ridden, drug-addled convicts as your media often likes to universally portray.

Go read.
