Why do mostly middle age woman seem( certainly to me).. to have thios thing with walking straight in the way of you- is it me?
Do you really agree with my view.

The last few days ( yesterday) I had to all but barge someone out the way
fairly near the local station ! and its fairly annoying when or if it is actually a few times in the day

I still don't understand people movement. Maybe they're trying to slow you down as to have more time to get a 2 second longer peek to see what you look like. I noticed that many people will just get in my way or go in a direction to collide with me.

It seems to me that on a typical sidewalk Koreans indicate which way they are going to pass you at about 6 - 10 meters away, further than most Westerners do.

The younger person is meant to make more room than the older person.

choose your path, walk straight, don't look at them, and they'll all scurry out of your way. helps to look angry or determined, which is how they make me look when trying to walk down the street anyway.

Why don't people keep right? That's the side of the road they drive on.

The other day an oldish guy was coming towards me and stepped into my path about 8 metres away. SO I held my line but he still made me move even though he stepped into my path!

Wear sunglasses and lower your hat, they stay out of your way.

It takes a while to get used to, but once you adapt to not always feinting right, you'll be fine. Then you'll be really messed up when you go back to your home country.
