The Roots in Seoul (Melon-AX Hall)
I’m leaving in an hour for the The Roots concert – their first performance in Seoul. I’m meeting Ras, Brad, Eddie, and one other at Gwangnaru station (line 5). It’s an expensive show, with general admission at 88,000 won and reserved seating at 110,000, which includes drinks and finger foods. We bought the reserved seats. [...]

8. December 2008
I’ve been busy, to say the least. The last two weeks involved writing English finals and wrapping up the semester by proctoring exams on Friday. In addition, we moved into Seoul over the weekend.

Since I’m leaving Korea at the beginning of February 2009, Ras has to leave the apartment we’re in now and move into Seoul. He has been commuting from Gunpo into Seoul for the last eight months.

Last weekend, a group of us went to see Cirque du Soleil: Alegria. Unfortunately, there are no pictures from the show at all, because the staff were very strict with enforcing the “no picture” rule.

22. October 2008
What an experience today was! About a month ago, Mike asked if I wanted to join him and other photographers to shoot at Seoul Fashion Week for the FeetManSeoul website. Fashion photography is not something I’ve ever dabbled in. Instead, I usually stick to food, landscapes, and everyday life shots. Still, it was too good [...]

What wonderful things can I say about Star Chef restaurant that hasn’t already been said by FatManSeoul or ZenKimchi? I wholeheartedly agree with them – the restaurant is fantastic.
