Am I the only one who finds a lot of dried gunk in my nose, as if I'm recovering from a cold, even though I haven't had a cold - in Seoul?
I suppose it's from the pollution.
Can't be healthy can it? |

Yeah, I was in Seoul this past weekend and I was very happy to get back to the fresh air here in Busan, took my lungs a good day to recover. Not to mention the people in Seoul were giving my K-gf dirty looks the entire time we were there. People are very nice to us here in Busan and couldn't care less about a foreigner with a Korean girl. Seoul sucks. |

Really? I thought people in smaller places than Seoul would be more hostile to a foreigner with a Korean girl. |

Busan's not exactly small. It's like 4 million. Plus, it's a much more liberal city than Seoul. And I'd have to say the people here are much more attractive too  |

Does anyone else agree than Busan girls are more attractive than Seoul girls?
Girls in Busan dress more conservatively, don't they? |

Where are you originally from? You need to tone down your fever a tad. Almost every time I see you post it's concerning K-girls! |

Unless the girls in Seoul are actually naked on the streets, no, busan girls aren't more conservative.
The length of their skirts is just shocking |

Not trying to kid anyone. Just what I've experienced. I think it's pretty much common knowledge that Seoul is a conservative city. Maybe not for the foreigners, but that's what I've been told by Koreans. |

The hottest Korean girl I've ever seen was while I was visiting Busan.
It wasn't just the pure sex appeal about her, but she was also incredibly beautiful too. |

| Can we please stop using the terms 'K-girls' and 'k-gfs' and 'k-wives', please? It makes you sound like utter fucking losers. |

I only mentioned the fact that she's Korean because it was other Koreans giving her dirty looks because she was with a foreigner. When they weren't shooting the evil eye in her direction they were making fun of her Busan accent in the stores. Or they were being f-king a$$holes to her when she would ask for directions. |

The people in Busan are definitely a lot friendlier. They're also a lot more approachable than the people in Seoul.
If you approach someone on the street in Seoul for directions or help, they look at you as if you're about to rob them. I was in Busan for about a week and on at least a dozen occasions I had people approaching me asking if I needed help.... The women there were also a lot more approachable.
I should also mention something about the actual topic. The stuff in your nose might also be from the dry air due to the cooler temperature. Try leaving a humidifier on when you sleep. <------- I have no idea if that's good advice. |
