Go as something inappropriate. Like Kim Jong Un's cane or Ray Rice's security elevator. Those are the kind of costumes adults should wear. Otherwise, adults shouldn't be celebrating Halloween. If you need an excuse to get drunk and wear something sexy or wild because you normally wouldn't do so, you've already failed at life. Do the next generation a favor and go and order the kids a pizza.

Anyone out of high school who is still playing Mr. Dress Up on Halloween is a bit pathetic. I avoid Itaewon on Halloween to escape the idiots. Some haven't fully grown up, and others are trying to impress Koreans with the "awesomeness" of a spooky Western tradition. It's a day for kids to dress up. Not adults. Have some dignity - dress your kid up as Spiderman and watch him have an awesome time with his friends.

When you do it, you just look like a fool.

Some more inappropriate ideas....ebola patient, an ISIS hostage or if you really want to be a jerk you could go as a Sewol victim.

See now thats just mean. You gotta put a twist on it. Any kind of mass death is usually poor taste, but can be pulled off. Park Boms pill bag or The soil under Jamsil would be better.

Jeez, according to this, just dressing up as someone from another country is politically incorrect in the US these days. So cowboy and French Maid outfits are out as well, I assume. Those poor women in the poster, they look distraught Rolling Eyes Does this mean non-Scottish people will no longer be allowed to wear kilts? that'd be one good result anyway.

Tempting. How does one "dress up" as soil? Would simply painting one's face brown and wearing a rubber duck on one's head work? Or would
that be asking Lotte for trouble?

I was up there shooting darts just like on any other Friday afternoon before it hit me that it was a 'holiday'. The better half met me at the regular pub for a quick drink.

Then, WHOA, we headed out to the subway stop to make our way back to our hood for dinner. Literally could not move on the sidewalk, and people were 8 abreast coming up out of the subway on both sides of the street. The line waiting to come up to street level went all the way down to the platform.

NEVER, EVER, EVER bother with the Twon on a holiday, especially if it falls on a weekend. And for halloween? Seriously? Yeeessshh.
