there's nothing lowly about teaching- it's the chosen profession of my Mum, brother, sister, aunts, uncles, cousins- you name it. But I don't see why working at an airport makes me a boy either.

Anyway- domino's pizza- yeah there are loads of em- but do they use kimchi as a topping?


Airport Boy is your superhero name. No disrespect is intended. You can be Airport Man if you want.

Where? Fast food in my �� is limited to Kyochon or the ���/����/��� place.

there seems to be more subway restaurants per capita here in Daegu, compared to Seoul... so, er...Daegu is not Seoul.



"Seems to be" being the key phrase. It seems to me that none of the three Subways I know of in Daegu are less than an hour's drive from my house. It also seems to be true that Japan is not Korea either. They have 98 Subways vs. Korea's 39.

I bet half of them (the half that was born somewhere else) would agree with me.

You eat pizza? I eat practically no fast food anymore. Maybe one burger a month, a slice of pizza once a month or every second month. When I have a craving for pizza I just go to COEX and buy a slice.

Someone should tell them to stop ordering waegook saram. I wonder how many hagwons/airportboys there are in Seoul.

Perhaps I'm misunderstanding you, but it sounds like you'd prefer all those horrible foreigners to go back to where they came from.

Not all of them. You can stay. But yeah, I hate myself. Go home, me!

I know that. My point is that all of Kangnam is the best place to live, not just Daechidong. Wink I work in Daechi-dong and live in Yeoksam-dong. 1/2 of Kangnan Station is in Yeoksam-dong. There is a lot of good stuff there.
