That's the country with all the dead students in that boat, right? Lately I've been getting a lot of comments about the string of mass shootings that's been going on in the States, lol. At least it's recent. ;PSomething I read this morning. The US is on day 244 or something of the year, and there has been over 270 mass shootings in the US in just 2019. That's more than 1 per day. I'm surprised that's not more alarming to the people there.

Makes no sense. Korean food is insanely salty. Especially ramyeon. The soup is like pure salt

We met up with one of my wife's (Korean) friends in Hong Kong and spent the day with her. For both lunch and dinner she would only eat Korean food. She would not countenance the idea of eating anything else, let alone Cantonese food."Too oily!". She had been there for 4 days and she hadn't actually tried any local food yet, but in her mind, all Chinese food, from Manchuria all the way down to Yunnan was swimming in oil.
An old colleague of mine spent a week in Thailand one summer, and he said that he only ate Thai food until he could find a Korean restaurant near his hotel. He found one on the second day. It was all Korean food the rest of the trip because Thai food was, you guessed it, too oily.
This must be absolute torture for DM hahaha

When someone opens one of those massive containers of kimchi or 'jongkak' kimchi, I do have to hold back a gag reaction.
