|
Hannam Market advertises that it's open 365 days 9:00 - 20:00 but it was closed today. Granted it's the last legal day of the Lunar New Years Holiday, this occurrance countered its advertisement.
This raises one interesting question. What is the true schedule for Hannam Market? |

On the business card it reads "Open Everyday."
It's been closed on other days, too.  |

| Well, the Nyquil is 10,000 won, which isn't too bad. But cranberry sauce is now 4,100! |

the name of my gym is "24 hour fitness" sign outside says 24 hours (in Korean).
Sign inside says 6-2 m-f, 8-20 sat, 10-18 sunday - they aren't open on sundays, I havent checked the other times as I work out mid-morning
but the trainers are hot (competition bodybuilders - 2 women, 1 guy) |

Hannam market charges simply extortionate prices. Some Korean products are double the price they are anywhere else. However, a necessary evil for certain things.
As for fake ads, Kraze Burger used to advertise that they were open 10a.m. to 12 p.m.--which basically would mean they're open two hours per day! |
