This really stunningly gorgeous student of mine works at a little shop for her parents. In comes a local ajoshi with 50k worth of grapes and gives them to her, for no reason. He also buys 10k worth of beer. Inside the box I can see another at least 50k won in 10k bills. They talk, but she explains that he is a local farmer.

The student gives me some grapes along with some food. The student's mother comes down and sees the grapes. I'm quickly ushured out of the store because she has work to do now.

Do I eat these grapes?

I don't understand your dilemma. But I would say yes.

I don't know if the grapes bought what I think they bought.

did the 'farmer' leave the store or did he just stand around waiting for you to leave?

Something weird is going on, but I doubt it involved soiling the grapes.

Hmmm...I see what we're on about here...you say "in comes a local ajoshi" but did he come in from the outside of the store, or did he come in from some backroom, covered in sweat and tucking his shirt into his pants?

Your moral dilemma sounds like a Grade 8 math problem.

"A stunningly gorgeous girl works in a shop with her parents. A man comes in with a velocity of 3km an hour an 50k worth of grapes. He gives the grapes to the girl and buys 10k of beer. In the box there are 50k won in 10k bills. He is a local farmer.

The stunningly gorgeous girl gives you the grapes. Her mother sees this, and chases you out of the store with a broom.

Do you eat the grapes? (10 pts)"

This is Korea, not Isaan. I think your mind is racing ahead a bit too much.

Waiting outside about 10m away from the store.

Throw away grapes - eat the student out.

I think, in light of the possible implications running around here, your suggestion would be a great way to get some disease that science hasn't named yet.

I guess the moral of the story is if you want the goodies, you gotta bring the grapes!
