Travel to South Korea

In Seoul, you'll find lots and lots of delicious Korean street food, here's the guide: http://migrationology.com/2012/05/korean-street-food-seoul-guide/ Seoul's Gwangjang Market is one of the best places in the city to sample a few of the best Korean stet food dishes. In this video I head to the market to take a walk around and explore a few delicious eats. After walking around I sat down at a stall serving a variety of different tasty delights. The first thing I eat is called tteokbokki which is rice cakes simmered in a thick red chili curry sauce. The dish is one of the most popular Korean street food staples. The rice cakes were 3,000 Korean Won which is a little less than about $3. The next thing I sample is small rolls of gimbap which is the equivalent of Korean style sushi rolls - rice and a few small pickled vegetables wrapped in seaweed. The gimbap cost 3,000 Won. The next thing is called Sundae which is Korean blood sausage. It was mixed with sticky rice and steamed in a strange outer shell and then slice on my plate. The sausage was really quite delicious. The Gwangjang market is full of great stalls serving Korean blood sausage. One place of sundae cost 6,000 Won. After walking around a bit more, I finally tried a fried bean pancake type of thing. Dipped in the sauce and eaten along with kimchi it was excellent. If you ever visit Seoul, South Korea, you must head to the Gwangjang Market for tasty street food!

Korea Creating Shared Values Take a look at the newest short from the folks at Brand Korea. Five vignettes show you the values that Korea shares with the world. See the kindness of friendship as they try on traditional clothes, the richness of abundance as the scientists bring improved agriculture, the openness of the world as the businessman shares photos, the enjoyment of youth as the kids play with their cartoon heroes and the excitement of a concert as you dance with your idols. We all have the same values. Korea: it's worth sharing. More about Korea Korea.net (www.korea.net)

Jeong is a difficult concept to translate, but it can be considered a type of love. It's about sharing, caring and even hating! It's very unique and we've given some examples to help you!

http://seoulistic.com http://www.facebook.com/seoulistic http://twitter.com/seoulistic --------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Korean age system is basically 1 year (or two years) more than your actual age. Many people don't know how to calculate their Korean age, but that's pretty simple. If you need a Korean age calculator, try this: (This year - Your Birth year) + 1 = Your Korean age Example: (2012 - 1990) + 1 = 23 And don't worry about your birthday. It doesn't matter if it passes or not. Korean age is calculated by year!

"Six decades before he went to North Korea as a curious tourist, Merrill Newman supervised a group of South Korean guerrillas during the Korean War who were perhaps the most hated and feared fighters in the North, former members of the group say. Some of those guerrillas, interviewed this week by the Associated Press, remember Newman as a handsome, thin American lieutenant who got them rice, clothes and weapons during the later stages of the 1950-53 war, but largely left the fighting to them. North Korea apparently remembered him, too. The 85-year-old war veteran has been detained in Pyongyang since being forced off a plane set to leave the country Oct. 26 after a 10-day trip. He appeared this weekend on North Korean state TV apologizing for alleged wartime crimes in what was widely seen as a coerced statement."* Cenk Uygur, Ana Kasparian, John Iadarola, and Jimmy Dore break it down on The Young Turks. *Read more here from AP / USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/world/2013/12/03/vet-detained-nkorea/3838043/ Download audio and video of the full two hour show on-demand + the members-only post game show by becoming a member at http://www.tytnetwork.com/member-options/.

http://seoulistic.com http://www.facebook.com/seoulistic http://twitter.com/seoulistic --------------------------------------------------------------------------- Korean dramas and movies often have scenes in jjimjilbang (Korean dry saunas). And in those scenes people are always wearing towels shaped like Princess Leia. In Korea, these are called 양머리 (yangmeori), which translates to sheep head. And there's a few simple steps to make this fun/cute headwear for the hot rooms.

Check out my Seoul travel guide and tips at this link: http://migrationology.com/2012/05/seoul-travel-guide/ - All my personal Seoul travel tips and suggestions! Seoul, South Korea, is truly an amazing city to visit! It's modern, easy to navigate and there's little something everyone will enjoy. The Seoul subway system makes it easy to get around town and discover exactly what the giant city has to offer. Surrounded by Japan and China, Seoul and South Korea sometimes doesn't get all the attention is deserves . Korea is home to a unique culture, cuisine and a fascinating history. If you ever have the chance to visit Seoul, you'll have a great time! I traveled to Seoul Korea and was able to do all kinds of things, but I've narrowed this list down to twenty five of the best things to do in Seoul - of course there are other things as well but this list is just the beginning and intended to get your ideas and travel imagination flowing! Anyway, on to the top Seoul attractions, here's the list in case you can't see the video: 1. Gyeongbukgung Palace 2. Bukchon Hanok Village 3. Jogyesa Buddhist Temple 4. Suwon's Hwaseong Fortress 5. War Memorial and Museum 6. N Seoul Tower 7. Myeongdong Shopping 8. Insadong 9. Namdaemun Market 10. Dongdaemun 11. International Itaewon 12. Hongdae (Hongik University) 13. Lotte Mart 14. Lotte World 15. Seoul Children's Park 16. Han River Walking / Riding 17. Walk along the Cheonggyecheon Stream 18. Hike in Seoul 19. Gwangjang Market 20. Noryangjin Fish Market 21. Garak Wholesale Food Market 22. Korean Street Food 23. Ice Cream Selections 24. Coffee at a Coffee Shop 25. Korean Barbecue I stayed in South Korea for just over 2 weeks and was able to complete this entire list of things to do in Seoul. However, even though there are so many places to see and go, probably my favorite of all is eating and sampling delicious Korean food! Korean food is so good and there are so many restaurants everywhere you look in Seoul that it can truly be considered a foodie's paradise. If you get a chance to visit Seoul I hope your'e able to do all these wonderful things while you're there! Anything else you love about Seoul that's not on this list? Please feel free to leave a comment below and let me know!

Watch VICE on HBO Fridays at 11 PM, only on HBO: http://bit.ly/Subscribe-to-VICE-News Segment 1: Escape from North Korea Thousands of North Koreans cross the border into China illegally every year. Living in perpetual fear of being discovered, with all odds against them, defectors still do everything they can to leave. If arrested in communist Laos, they may be sent back to North Korea to face prison camp or worse. The risks of escaping the North and heading to the South are so great that fewer than 25,000 North Koreans have ever made the journey successfully. VICE joins a South Korean pastor who has developed a modern-day underground railroad to move defectors from China to freedom and eventual citizenship in South Korea. Segment 2: World's Most Dangerous Border The most dangerous place in the world is Kashmir's line of control, which partially occupies the Indian state and separates India from Pakistan. Observers in both India and Pakistan believe the decades-old conflict between the two nations could potentially lead to the end of the world as we know it. VICE travels across Pakistan to the contested line of control in Kashmir, pointing out how close a nuclear apocalypse is yet again.
