A new daily feature here at Dave's.

Korea's baseball team is in the States for spring pre-season training.

Quote:

"The weather is really nice," South Korea manager In-sik Kim said through an interpreter. "We have Korean food every day. Everything feels like it's in Korea."

Are they talking about porn or cocaine?


Quote:

The DPRK will give merciless blow to the United States if it stood by its hostile policy against the DPRK, Yang Hyong Sop, vice president of the Presidium of the Supreme People's Assembly, said at a national meeting marking the 90th anniversary of the March 1 Popular Uprising


Do they have a 7 year-old write these ridiculous things?
Quote:

The United States should stop hindering peace and the reunification process of the Korean peninsula and withdraw its forces from South Korea at once, a senior official of the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) said on Sunday.

Actually, I thought comparing Hawaii to Korea was the (more) ridiculous part.

How is that comparing Korea to Hawaii? Doesn't it mean something like 'We feel at home here'?

I've heard many Koreans say Jeju-do is more beautiful than Hawaii. The impressive part of this claim, IMO, is that they manage to say it with a straight face.

In response I generally just smirk and give a quick shake of the head, but in truth I'm not overly surprised as I know that the sparkling brand of kool-aid they've been imbibing is unusually strong.

It is slightly different. I have Korean food sometimes in Korea, but not often. Much more frequently, I have Italian, Indian, Turkish, Moroccan, English, or French, although I am from none of the countries.
