Gyeongju

Arrived safely, rode the bus,  love me some Google. Allowed me to ask for help from the bus driver [저를 도와주세요
jeoleul dowajuseyo],  and then get off on the right stop when he forgot to help. 

Arrived at the Hanok, which is a traditional Korean house.  Completely enchanted.
Notice there are no chairs,  and my shoes are outside, where they belong, according to the proprietress. 

Walked the city market, got a 18,000 won haircut (about $16), and visited the Korean version of food trucks for dinner - grilked beef, onions, garlic, and mushroom (100 grams for 6000 won)

  Now im watching K-Star back in my room.  I think maybe this show is teaching me as much about Korean culture as I've  learned in the whole last week... or maybe it's just adding some extra context.
