With a little perseverance we had a successful first night out in Korea. Oddly enough, on a Saturday night, we had to go to multiple establishments to find one open. We ended up at a karaoke bar. They are much different here than in the States. There is no large open room with one stage. There are a series of small, private rooms. We proceeded to pack 11 people into one room, talk about an icebreaker; a group of 11 people who have only know one-another for a few days now being forced to entertain each other with vocal serenades. The owners of the Karaoke bar did not speak any English, but we were able to get some sweet, sweet nectar of beer. We continued the night, post-Karaoke, by getting some soju at another bar. Just like the wikipedia article says, it tastes much like vodka, but a bit sweeter.
I'm having trouble uploading video at the moment, and am pretty tired, so I will get to that tomorrow. Until then happy reading!
