I know that Korea is a conservative country and I might not have any luck but I have to ask anyway. Is there any place where a person can do any modelling? I mean nude modelling for an art class or something along those lines? Or is that to wierd and would never happen in Korea?

Wasn't there a big nude modeling/pr0n thing at loveland where those women pranced around naked on phallic symbols while numerous "photographers" who paid to get the opportunity to shoot those ladies?

Cosmic Charlie: I know there was a thread arond here in the past month or so about a guy offering modeling or something. You may want to do a search on that.

My director used to lease a couple of spare rooms in the hagwon to an artist friend of hers. He'd always do his painting on weekends or before/after classes. Though, a couple of times before class I'd see a couple of 30-something women (not to be judgmental but they looked like bar-girls) leave his studio talking and giggling amongst each other.

Once or twice, he forgot to lock his studio before leaving and the kids would peek in and gawk at the occasional nudie paintings he had created. After this happened a couple too many times, he left our hagwon and took his studio elsewhere. I was disappointed as I was hoping to hook up with one of the ajummas, they were stacked! Cool

So, I'm sure if it exists in Suncheon if exists anywhere. Also, I'm pretty sure someone on the General Discussion board posted about their Korean artist friend looking for models or any race or color about a month or 2 ago, could look through the search engine to try to dig it up.

Look, if you're going to be a back-seat proofreader, be thorough. The OP spelled "modeling" wrong in the thread title, wrote a run-on first sentence, and omitted an "o" in the word "too" directly before the "wierd" that rankled you so.

Also, to further this descent into nitpickery, the rule is probably best expressed as:

"'i' before 'e' unless after 'c' or if it sounds like 'a' as in 'neighbor' and 'weigh,' as well as some exceptions, which are just plain weird."

This all goes to show,however, that Internet message-boards are poor places to judge people's writing skills -- by doing so, we only embarrass ourselves, as I have so shamelessly done in this post.

Most of the universities with art departments need nude (or clothed) models.

Should actually have said "modeling" is wrong in the thread title if you come from the US, but if you come from the UK or Australia it is correct ...

One of the most common questions I get every week is ... why is that word spelled like that ... I thought it was spelled like ....
Correct answer is usually .... In America it is spelled.... In England it is spelled .... In books you will find both ....
