Fun Street - Six in Seoul

Fun Street 10/08/2009

In the last post I told you we happened upon 'fun street' well, here is a glimpse of 'fun street' for you. Now mind you these sights are not uncommon here in Korea and this is just part of why I love it here so much.

First off, it is not unusual to find motorcycles or cars parked or driving on the sidewalk. This is a normal everyday part of life.

I was afraid to ask what they do with these...I'm sure they are food.

Rice cakes or fruit anyone?

This was the first time I remember seeing fresh chicken since I have been here! The woman in the picture is cutting up a chicken for her customer. The buckets in the front are fresh chicken parts.

How about some fish?

Right next door to the fish you can find a nice pair of sweat pants for yourself. When I saw these pants I thought they were taking about "Agent Orange", the Herbicidal Warfare program during the Vietnam War, but then I found out that back in the 80's there was a band named "Agent Orange", so I am not sure which one they are talking about here - most likely they are not sure which one they are talking about either.

You can always find 'Konglish' wherever you go...
You say tomato, I say pomato?
I think the wires hanging down are a nice effect as well.

That is haning meat you are looking at in the next picture.

Kimchi, kimchi, it is good for you and me....

Please step around the TV in the middle of the alley.

What on God's green earth? Do they really expect me to eat that?!
Tripe - Beef tripe is usually made from only the first three chambers of a cow's stomach. I've tried it, but cannot get past what it is. YUCK, GAG, BARF.
