I Love Korea because… by buhay sa korea on Mar 26, 2012I love Korea. And I love Seoul. I love seeing the taxes we pay working for us. I love watching the politicians passionately fight for their principles. (Seriously!) I love that I could eat street food without hesitation. I love taking the subway to w...
Korean Folk Village by buhay sa korea on Feb 24, 2012Most of the Korean dramas I had seen are historical or sageuk (Hangeul: 사극). They encourage me to learn more about the history of Korean (and eventually find out that many of them aren’t faithful to what is historically written). A lot of t...

A view of Bukhansan by buhay sa korea on Feb 5, 2012I’ve only been to Bukhansan (Hangeul: 북한산 – the mountain north of Han River) only once. It was sometime in January of 2004 and I didn’t have a digital camera that time. The mountain was covered with snow and we hiked for about...
Namiseom by train by buhay sa korea on Jan 27, 2012Namiseom (Hangeul: 남이섬) is one of the tourist spots in Korea that I’ve been to several times. I’ve also posted about some of those trips on my blog. The last time I was there was in early November, when my two sisters from the Phili...
Korea’s Autumn Foliage in 2011 by buhay sa korea on Sep 25, 2011My two favorite seasons in Korea are autumn and spring. I don’t care much for summer and winter but we need them to complete the four seasons. It’s just that it’s so inconvenient to travel in winter when it’s too cold and when...
