Country Roads Took Us Further from Home

After dinner at the raw fish house with the rest of the staff from SLP Language Institute, our group rambled over to a nori bang (pronounced nor-ee-bong), for some good old fashioned Korean fun, karaoke. More specifically, karaoke in a small room that holds only your friends, with plenty of beer, snacks, and off-key voices to go around. The nori bang's catalog listed both English and Korean songs. Mr. Won and Bryan (a fellow English teacher) kicked things off with a rousing rendition of John Denver's Country Roads. Eventually, most everyone got up and sang a tune or two, Shane picking Rock You Like a Hurricane(video below),and myself Tubthumpin' it up. If you can make it pastShane's sort of drunk singing in the video, you'll have a good view of what the nori bang room looks like.

That night was probably also the first time I have been

exposed to what is one of the best things about Korea so far--- K-Pop. Some of my favorite songs from the night were "Bo Peep", "Bad Girl, Good Girl", and "Nobody But You". Very catchy songs, terrible to get stuck in your head.
