Two American Journalists Imprisoned in North Korea

I don’t mean to sound callous, but what did they expect?  I don’t think the U.S. can do much to protect them, it’s not like North Korea kidnapped them or anything.  I really have to wonder what was going through their minds.

You can read about what the U.S. and South Korea are doing about it over at JoongAng.

카라 (Kara) – Honey

This has been at the top of the charts for two weeks. I think I’ve finally come up with the secret formula…

5 hot girls / guys or just one + trendy dance everyone can do + English words randomly thrown around + one full rap verse in English + techno-ish beat = successful song in Korea

Show some Korean respect!

I have found that Koreans have a great sense of respect for their elders. Even a drunk Korean knows that you need to give your seat to your elders! This is taken from “My Sassy Girl,” are great romantic-comedy.

American-Korean fusion: Mac볶이

macboggi

One of my favorite Korean dishes is 떡볶이.  I can’t help but love the sweet and spicy flavoring along with the absolutely chewable rice cakes.  Anyways, since I have never been to Korea and I live in America it’s sort of hard to come by rice cakes (well, there is a Korean store in town, but it’s SO expensive).  So I have to find my own way to make Korean food when I’m not with my Korean friends.  It has actually become my favorite food to eat: Mac볶이.

It’s pretty easy, just make macaroni and cheese just like the box says, add a spoon of 고추짱 and a little less than a spoon of honey, mix, add either 고추짱 or honey depending on what kind of taste you want.  If you’re feeling adventurous you can even add in a can of Tuna or some other meat for a more hearty meal.  It’s not the healthiest thing and may not look it, but it’s dang good.
