Hey,
You know those commercials on AFN where is says "If the price in Youngdog market was too good to be true, it probably is. Don't do it. You will be prosecuted"?

Where is this fabulous and inexpensive Youngdong market? My roomate has a desperate desire to buy counterfeit sports jerseys.

Thanks for your help,
J

I think it's Myong-dong Market he's talking about, but I think they're probably talking about Namdaemun which is close by and (I would guess) has a load of counterfeit sports jerseys.
Hoehyon Station line 4

that advert drives me mad when he leaves that little gap
"If the price in Myongdong. Market is too good..."
it's almost as bad as the one all about when you can drive your "Vee-hickle"

I've never seen the ad - no AFKN here - but it sounds hilarious!

It'd be like an anti-drug ad that would go, "Don't try it, it'll make you feel too good...! And, especially, don't score at the crackhouse at the corner of 1st and Main...!"
