I have some Korean-American friends who moved from America to China a couple of years ago. I asked them once if the culture shock in China was hard on them. They said China was much easier for them than America, because China looked a lot like home in Korea. Really?
Well, yes, really. I just got back from Korea. I know Korea has a different history, culture, etc. from China. I didn't meet up with any Koreans, nor did I go into any Korean person's home. However, from just looking at the surface of things around town, Seoul is very, very similar to a big city in China. Except for the fact that all the signs are in Korean.
An outdoor market in Seoul.
A street near a university.
A busy alleyway near a subway stop.
High fashion ... love those flower heads!
Adorable little kids.
Preacher women (don't see street preachers in China much).
Ice cream colors should always match your clothing colors as much as possible, don't you think?
