More Korean takes on English

"Training Center for Intangible Cultural Benefits"

"Home for Missing Children"*

"70% Big Sale"

*= Think about that one. If the children are missing, why do you need a place to put them?

5 * Korea

I'm again sitting in an airport lounge waiting for my flight home from Seoul. A few meetings, gave two hours of talks, walked through the G-Star show floor, and that was about it. I did most of the touristy stuff on previous trips, and while I went to some dinners related to the show, but they were fairly strange to western eyes: All the Koreans in formal dress leaving us Westerners feeling like we were at a wedding without the proper atire, lots of government people giving speeches, strange seafood buffets, and Filipino transvestite lipsyncers covering old American pop songs.

In any case I'm looking forward to coming home.

Update: Home again.
