Not a bad name, per se: EFL Tower. Naturally their logo was the Eiffel tower. Nice pun but I don't associate the Eiffel tower with English.

I think that's greek.

Another one. In my building there's a place called "The Think of English". Every time I see the guy, I have to avoid making eye contact with him. I fear I'll give him a contemptuous look.

There's a school in Chilgok-gun, Daegu called "Naughty Student English Academy". I go by it almost every weekend. I often wonder what the hell the director was thinking when he chose that and how many times he has to explain it to prospective mothers. I'll try to remember to bring my camera next time.

There's a bus that has driven past me several times on my way to kumdo with the name "Do-Be English" splashed all over it. Everytime I see it, I think to myself that it sounds a lot like a "doobie", another term for pot. At any rate, it sounds like a very chill school. I wonder if they would admit me, even though I clearly speak English well.


I also like "Sori English", like "I'm Sori you were dumb enough to sign up at our school."

Highest English Academy. It is on the third floor, just below another English Academy.

Not as good as the ones above, but I thought it funny Smile

The way they write it in Korean, it comes out looking like "Heist English". It always gives me a laugh.

In yeonhuidong there is a school called "English Mou Mou" or something like that. When written in Korean it sounds like "Englishee Moo Moo".
