Happy New Year and What's Your Gyeolsim?


Oops! Forgot to note down the source of this cartoon from one of the Korean websites. Here's wishing all a Happier, Healthier and Hope-fuller 2011. It's funny though why some writers on websites from Korea are already calling it the Year of the Rabbit when Seollal hasn't even happened yet. Just hope that I don't have to rethink or reformulate my resolutions come February.

Hope I will spend more time learning new words in Korean - with the help of the Korean Times. See below.


However much I hope to be indebted to the Korean Times for any progress in my language learning, I still feel somewhat annoyed by this other cartoon from the same website. How would you feel if Mother Earth was depicted in hot pursuit of a prettier than a flower boy with a six pack instead of a toothless, walking stick wielding grandpa?
