I wish I was with them. Too late to change my mind...

Chuncheon 춘천 School Trip
For the end of the term, we took a mandatory optional field trip to Chuncheon.
We took a bus there. Of course, we needed to drink beer and soju on the way...it was past noon afterall. The driver gave us the 'drink em if you got em' announcement. I did my best to abstain, but the soju pressure was put on, followed by somek (beer with soju).
Our first stop was the home of a famous writer, Kim You-jeong, who died in poverty in the late 30's. There was a lecture, which I did not stay for (it was in Korean, mandatory for the Korean teachers and, apparently, interesting/long-and-boring). After touring the small complex, I found a bench and read a book.
