Nothing!
But I've grown on Korea, and in Korea ... |

Vegetable trucks with their announcements and the ChapsalDok seller.
Used to irritate me but I find their repetitive mantras now soothe me like a lullaby. |

| Korean men spitting in your general direction while waiting for a bus. What a wonderful culture. |

Korean popular music.
Used to drive me crazy. Now there's some bands I actually enjoy. (Seo Taeji rules!)
I know a lot of it is fairly derivative of western music, but I don't hear new western music anymore, so it's all new to me. |

I will do the opposite. Something I used to like, now I hate.
Being treated like a martian. I used to like being like a rock star. Now I just want to be left alone. |

Korean Movies. Never would have thought I'd like them.
I really enjoyed:
The Way Home
The Good Lawyer's Wife
The one about the painter from the Josun Dynasty, can't remember the name. |

"The Way Home" is such a poor film, I just wanted to throw the little kid in the river and buy the grandma a cake for the entire 90 minutes.
I've give you Korean films though, but along the "Chingu", "My Boss, My Hero" lines. |

I hear you about the kid. The first time I saw the movie it didn't bother me. But the second time when I saw him push his grandmother over, steal her hair pin and try to sell it for batteries for his gameboy, etc...I also wanted to kill him.
The Good Lawyer's Wife is really good. Won a bunch of international awards too. I forgot the name in Korean but you can look it up. I want to see Chingu but my girlfriend said it's awful...granted she loved Matrix 3, so who can judge her taste.

Chingu involves someone being stabbed with a sashimi knife- the Matrix 3 involves Keanu Reeves.
That's all I'm saying. |

If you came full circle, it repulses you again? |

I used to hate the way that Korean and Chinese women would always say "waaa!" whenever they saw something unexpected that they liked... but now it's grown on me.
Ex.
I'm sitting on the bus... two Korean girls get on and see the kitten in my lap. They both look at me and go "waa!!!" and it was kind of cute. The Chinese teacher I'm friends with does it at least once every time we go out and it's really cute when she does it. |
