Well, someone let The Handsomes out.

I know quite a few Columbians in Korea (Bucheon), and they're smart and fun to drink with - like me. Kinda makes me want to walk around with a gun and kidnap someone.

Has anyone else met Columbians in this fine upstanding country?

(And no, they don't have any of that sweet South American White Fluff - I've asked them every time I've seen them.)

In Wonju, there were some street vendors from Columbia. They sold necklaces etc. from a suitcase. I thought they were from Central Asia but they started that "?Te gusta" business and well, I was surprised.

The Nashville has Salsa night but I think the folks there are Puerto Rican.

I hadn't met any Columbians before I came to The Land Of The Morning Crap, and unlike Brazilians, they seem pretty cool.

Of course, after they suggested that I visit Bolgota because it's a "nice place", I was a bit sceptical, but besides that, they seem a lot better than 90% of the foreigners that I've had the misfortune to meet.

And, they told me that their food is salty, not spicy. I can't wait to tell my students about this; they love learning about other cultures so much I just don't have enough information to give them.

Met some in Don't Go, the foreigner haunt in Ilsan. Not sure why they were here.

The spelling is "Colombian" unless you are from British Columbia, then you're British Columbian.
I haven't me anyone from Colombia in Korea.

I love the Colombian, um, coffee....

What U mean BB is that you bumped into a few hispanics in the bogs a couple times and pestered thim with highly original conversation starter requests for drugs. A quick call to your wonjang revealed that they'd get nothing for kidnapping you, so they quickly moved onto "kidnapping" your gf for half an hour.

I met a smoking hot Colombian chica in Itaewon who was studying Korean at a university here.. I wish there were more to that story.. but thats the extent of it..
