South Korea

Seoul

: Insadong, Seoul, South Korea. Colder than the freezer where Rocky used to beat his brother-in-law’s meat…no homo

: Originally built in 1395, Gyeongbokgung Palace was reconstructed in 1867 and literally means “Palace (Gung) Greatly Blessed by Heaven (Gyeongbok)”

: Most of this palace was destroyed by the Japanese during the early 20th century but has been gradually restored to it’s original form. As of 2009, about 40% of the original number of palace buildings were still standing or had been reconstructed.

: Temple art

: Traditional casket for Korean emperors of old – those motherfuckers used to roll out in style

: The intricately painted innards of Gyeoungbokgung Palace

: Throne? Altar for worship? Both?

: Can’t imagine the tedious hours poured into this paint job

: My picture of a picture at the palace museum of how they ran shit at Gyeongbokgung back in the day

: Wax figure scene from the palace museum

: Statue representation of the Korean Zodiac. Respectively: rat, ox, tiger, rabbit, dragon, snake, horse, goat, monkey, rooster, dog and pig

: Reppin’ 1988 – The Year of the Dragon

: 3 Ninjas style masks. I love that movie and all, but somethings just not right about the casting. Since when does Chinese grandfather = Hispanic daughter and 3 white grandkids?

: Traditional Korean dorrs

: Insanely homo and/or metrosexual ad I came across while Seoul searching. I got no idea what they’re selling, but slap some pairs of tits on those dudes and I’m down to get down – giggity, giggity

: I though picking up meat and snipping it with scissors was something that only existed in my fantasized scenarios of weirding out my blind date or meeting/pissing off my girlfriend’s parents for the first time, but looks like they actually get down that way in Korea

: Beautiful neon Korean writing translating roughly to, “I’ll suck a fart directly out of your ass.”

: One of the many phallically themed statues to be found in South Korea. There’s even an entire park dedicated to dongs on the east coast of the country in Samcheok if you’re into that sort of thing

: A bar named “Beerholic.” Drinking is huge in Korea. One of the rules there is that you should never fill your own glass which can seem kinda gay when it’s just two bro gettin’ wasted together.

: Street art

: Not a bad hot dog – “Are you worried about eating me? Take a bite. I’m 100% beef. Really. I’m not junk food. I’m real food.”

: Droopy-nutted, stinky-ass old French Canadian fag we had to share a dorm with for all our time in Seoul. Guy would stay out all night presumably banging whores then go to bed at 5am, strip down to his speedo and make the most disgusting gurgling sounds I’ve ever heard that would wake everyone in the room up. Fuck this guy

: Sunset at Haeundae Beach

: Gettin’ my karaoke on withTim Osh & a Korean dude named Su who we met at the beach that drunkenly called and divorced his wife in front of us on a cell phone he borrowed from a random person – he shitfacedly broke his own earlier by kicking it around in the sand

: Su doin’ the jerk-off dance, feelin’ the flow, workin’ it
