Meeting and greeting the Koreans!


After a nice resting day on Saturday, which was mostly used to explore the area near the motel we will stay in for the next 5 days, did we Sunday meet up with the local Women’s Rotary club. They had arranged for a tour to the local mall and afterwards a trip to Jinju Castle, which was used as a defense in one of the many wars between Korea and Japan. It is quite interesting to see how forgiving the Koreans are to the Japanese people and how worried they are around the atomic crisis in Japan.
After seeing a movie in the local Lotte cinema (almost every shopping and leisure shop is named after our team member Lotte Genz) did we have an Eel feast. We had Eel in many different styles, including Eel bones as a snack. The Korean women were in a very good mood, so we ended the night at the local karaoke bar singing a mix of English and Korean songs. / Kim
