Itaewon

the artist who painted my name

Ventured into Itaewon on Sunday. There is a U.S. Army base near there so it's known for being a very foreigner-friendly area. It was weird walking around hearing English instead of Korean. There were many tourist-y type shops and underground markets. Like Bupyeong, practically anything you can imagine was there, from jewelry to socks, tights, warm blankets, sports jerseys, wall hangings, etc, etc. I even did the bigtime tourist move and had my name painted on paper.

There were many many westerners walking about so it's a great location for an English book store! What the Book? is a wonderful book store filled with new and used books of all kinds. Late lunch was at Los Amigos, a Mexican restaurant, and it was delicious to say the least.
