I was coming back from Thailand Monday after 13 days, and we had to get off the plane in Hong Kong. I was one of the last to leave as I sat in my seat with my eyes closed as I was on 4 hours sleep over 2 days, and didn't want to be near shoving Kimberlys. As I was going up the escalator and rounded the corner, I saw a family of Kimberly in a circle around a 4-0r 5 year old boy with his pants down, urinating into a plastic water bottle. Foreigners just don't love their children like South Koreans do, or understand South Korean culture.

Yeah the bathrooms are REALLY close to the transit gate 42 if you were flying Cathay or Thai. Sparkling Korea. Simply sparkling.

I was hoping that the HK airport staff would fine them.

Judging my 1 week in Beijing, the Kimberlys have nothing on the Zhangs.

I went to Hong Kong Disneyland last year and, here in Korea where an ajumma will cut in line in front of you, the Chinese ajumma will cut in front of you and then call for her whole family to come up.

Likemany other shared Kor- Chinese heritage traits - the Zhangs also wear the tinted, oversized visors.

Ah yes, I remember that area well. It's where I and 150 or so other vitims had to endure a group of Korean girls picking their faces and popping their zits for a full hour and a half. Simply disgusting.

Well, chances are you're going to run into the same family sooner or later, as just about everyone who has been here more than a few months already has.

Those Kimberlys sure do get around. Wink

Since most of the people around them wouldn't speak Korean, I'm not exactly sure what this was meant to prove. Testing the accoustics in the departure lounge maybe?
