Korea Day 4

My final day in Korea began too early but without a hangover which was a big plus, although I think I was still a bit drunk. The vodka of the night before had been joined by tequila and they worked hand in hand to stave off hangover.

Which was rather fortunate as I went with my friend HyeJung to see Nanta, a Korean cooking musical comedy show about 3 chefs and newly installed manager’s son preparing e a banquet in time for the royal wedding. A simple premise but a great show, it’s main theme is traditional Korean music, which is mainly rhythmic, but improvised on kitchen utensils and so on. It also has some fart jokes, pantomime audience participation and magic tricks. If it shows anywhere near you I highly recommend it. IMG_2787

In Starbucks after Nanta.

After that I wandered around Myeongdong with my former housemate YuJin who had fortunately moved back to Korea for a month just in time to show me around. Cheap clothes, a nice fountain being cleaned and some tasty food and then to see some fountains from the side of a big bridge.

After that it was time to get back to the hostel, pack my back and work out how to get to the airport for an 8am flight the next day, which was thankfully accomplished with the aid of the 3am night-bus. And then finally back to Japan.
