Going on four days, it still gets a snicker.

Funny you should mention it. I passed this truck on the weekend, and for some reason wanted to get this picture.

it gets disappointing when you pronounce it right and it doesn't sound like "dawng" anymore.

when i found out that "maebong" station was may-bo(long o)ng and not "my bong" (bawng, as in water pipe) i was fucking crushed.

every time i give someone from home my address, i have to say "and don't laugh".

Also. There's a Chinese restaurant in my hometown that's been around for a long time. It's called Hung Far Low.

I live in "Sukmi" apartment building.

Later I found out it's pronounced Songmi. But not before I gave my address out to my mother. Kinda awkward.

in beijing, there's an apartment complex (very posh, too) that's called Bo Ning Plaza. the adverts were for "Wonderful Boning Plaza"

i don't think i had ever done a double-take like that before in my life.
