I've been getting many concerned emails and questions about what is going on here. My parents have even suggested that I come home.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Do I feel threatened? </b>To be truthful, I don't feel threatened. That doesn't mean there isn't a threat here, but I don't feel in any imminent danger.<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>Do you think war is likely? </b>It's possible... but I don't think its likely. NK is always full of empty threatsThere is also the fact that the whole world would turn against NK if they attacked someone. Even China, their ally, would become very upset with them. Now, I am by no means any expert when it comes to NK or politics, so don't take my opinions too seriously. Now Kim Jong Un has a lot of pride and will want to save face. However, I also believe that Kim Jong Un loves being a leader. If he starts a war, I can see no way in which he could continue to keep that position. (When they lose) He owns his own country now and despite the fact that it is falling apart, he is sitting pretty good himself. Why risk it? <br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>How are other expats reacting? </b>When talking to my other expat friends, I've found that they are share pretty much the same sentiments as I do. Their parents are worried about them but they themselves don't feel too much of a threat. However, I do frequent expat forums online and was surprised to see a lot of people already packing their bags. I guess if you don't have any real attachment to the country, it's not worth even the smallest risk. I will say that at this time though, the US embassy has stated that they do not feel that there is a threat for us staying here and is telling people not to panic but to go on with their lives. They have even mentioned that people planning to visit Korea are safe to do so. <br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>How are South Koreans reacting? </b>Most South Koreans are just going about their daily lives. They've lived through NK threats year after year. Most of them are hardly casting an eye on NK. However, a lot of this is due to the fact that SK tries it's hardest to ignore NK. I feel like the citizens pretend it doesn't exist. Only the oldest generation remembers what Korea was like when it was one. So, the younger generations no longer focus as much on unification, but rather on their own lives. I believe they worry that if the two Koreas ever did become one, the economic stress on SK would make everyone's lives a lot more harder. SK love the lives they have now and they don't want anything to change. (not everyone's opinion of course)<br />
<b><br /></b>
<b>If something were to happen, what are my options?</b> First, if you are an expat in Korea, the best thing to do is to be safe and register with your embassy. The US site is: https://step.state.gov/step/ They will be the ones to let you know if anything threatens your safety.

Cinthya asks: "Well, since i know you are a middle school teacher, can you write a line
or two about how k-pop idol affects your students? are your students a
huge fans of them too?"</blockquote>
<br />
First of all, thank you for your question! I'm more than happy to answer. A lot has happened these past few months, (which i will slowly get around to explaining!) so now I work at an elementary school. I'll give you the perspectives from both.<br />
<br />
First of all, if you live anywhere else in the world, kpop fans tend to be a bit... crazy. Haha! When I say crazy, I don't mean 'saesang' fans which follow their idols in taxis and spy on their houses. I just mean they tend to be a bit obsessive. I used to be a bit that way too when I first got into Kpop. So, people hear these crazy stories and think all kpop fans here in Korea are like that. Nope.<br />
<br />
Middle school and elementary kids are just like kids anywhere else in the world. They might obsess a bit over a certain band, much like my age group did over Nsync and Backstreet boys back in the day. They act just like kids do. They'll love a band for a year or two then slowly grow out of it.<br />
<br />
In middle school I was able to talk to my students about Kpop quite a bit. I'd say kpop idols affect students just like any other idol anywhere else in the world. There's really not much of a difference. There are some that are crazy for kpop bands, and some that could really care less.<br />
<br />
The one difference I did notice, however, was the gender fanbase.<i> It is perfectly acceptable for male students to like all male bands</i>. They look up to them and even try to dress like them at times. Of course, they prefer girl bands more! <br />
<br />
As for elementary students... there are a few bloomers that love Kpop bands, but really they haven't gotten into it yet. I was surprised when I introduced myself to 20 classes of students and only a handful had recognized my favorite kpop band. <br />
<br />
If anyone ever has any questions, feel free to ask!Jessica Atchleyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/15426443332660801174noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3755366398658425672.post-72463242959069924232013-02-08T00:39:00.000-08:002013-02-08T00:39:00.626-08:00Ice Museum in SeoulThis is one of the rarer known attractions here in Seoul. If you go behind Insadong into Samcheondong, you can find an ice sculpture museum in a basement there.<br />

I'd been to a dog cafe before, but a friend of mine wanted to check one out so we went. Dog cafes are places you go to play with dogs in the city. They have dogs of every shape, size and breed just wandering around for you to play with. You pay a small base fee and get a free drink. You can even bring your own dog -- if it's friendly. <br />

^ This particular dog bonded with me. It was a weird ugly dog with his tongue forever sticking out all alone in his own little corner. I petted him once and he crawled into my lap and wouldn't leave!

My winter camp was three weeks with just a handful of students. I created a new topic for each day and we would study for an hour and a half, then we'd play card games together for the last hour. I actually enjoy this much better than regular classes. You can bond with the students since you see the same ones every day, and since there are so few of them, you can really connect and get them to get over their fear of speaking in English. <br />

These pictures were on day two. The students were still awkward with one another. Their task? Create an object out of paper that reached the ceiling without falling. The team below won. <br />

It included a sheep cafe -- a cafe where you drink coffee and there are two sheep there as pets. She chose it because Sheep is one of her nicknames for me.<br />
<br />
There are a lot of pictures of me... all courtesy of my friend Christine. <br />

SY is incredibly intelligent and can speak English very well. I had her last semester and we've bonded a lot since.<br />
<br />
This past weekend I bought her dinner and went out for ice cream afterwards. We ran into some other students and we all talked together.<br />
<br />
Below is a picture of us together. <br />

I walked her home afterwards and her mother gave me an apple pie! It's been a year or so since I've had one, it was delicious!<br />

<br />
He recently told his story on 60 minutes. If you don't have time to read his book, now's your chance to hear what he has to say. <br />
<br />
It's a really good interview and a good summary of what is going on in North Korea right now. <br />

We had everyone to invite friends to our church, and afterwards we would welcome the guests with presents, games, and would just get to know them. It was a lot of fun and it was really great to be a part of it. <br />

Often students prepare months in advance. Our school's festival was one day of performances, then a day of festivities such as games and cafes.<br />
<br />
I was asked by the teachers to help out with the surprise of the festival... the young teachers dancing! I was surprised but jumped at the opportunity because I knew the kids would love it.<br />
<br />
We spent about a month being trained by two adorable dance prodigy students of ours. We stayed after school until around 9 or ten at night. It was incredibly exhausting, but fun at the same time. <br />
<br />
Here's some pictures, as well as a recording of practice, and finally the main show:<br />

It's a holiday that was created by advertising companies. Peppero is stick candy covered in chocolate. (Thus why it's 11/11, since the date looks like sticks of peppero) Basically on that day, you give your sweetheart some peppero.<br />
<br />
I had eaten most of my peppero before I thought to take a picture... but here's two from two of my favorite students! The one on the right is from an adorable boy who has a crush on me. Yet, I felt the need to correct his English, hahaha. <br />

So, one of my students told us he wanted to perform for us during class one day! It was a big surprise and he played the theme song to one of my favorite movies! (Howl's Moving Castle)</div>

Mini commercials. Of course, in the US and in Korea there are often popups at the bottom of the screen advertising the next show or something, but this was a bit different. <br />
<br />
In the upper right corner of the screen, they'd show a commercial during a show. It is like picture-in-picture. I think it was possibly because the drama I was watching was very long but they wanted to get all their advertisements in. <br />
<br />
Commercials in Korea are weirdly sparratic. You can be watching a drama and have only three commercials during the whole thing, but as soon as it ends its like a ten-fifteen minute span of just commercials. It all really depends on the channel and what's airing. <br />
<br />
They also have advertising on trucks specifically made just to be an advertisment. <br />
<br />
Seoul also has a lot of giant big screens outside. Think of Times Square, but many more. Every big area in Seoul has these outdoor screens. <br />
<br />
But.. other than that, advertising is nearly the same as anywhere else in the world. It's in your face and everywhere.

<br />
At first, it's unusual to a lot of people because some people don't like "other people's germs" or they want the food to themselves. <br />
<br />
It's something to be embrased though. I personally really like it because it creates a weird bond with you and the person you're eating with.<br />
<br />
Also, you can try more foods. If theres two things at a restaurant you want, you order both and share them both. <br />
<br />
Another reason I like it is because I am a relatively small eater. When I first came to Korea, the Koreans all asumed that I hated Korean food because I didn't eat much of it, when the truth of the matter is that even back home I eat very little. So, when we all eat out of the same pot, there's not a big plate of leftovers for me to worry about. I think some koreans can feel insulted if I don't eat much of their food so it takes some pressure off of me. <br />
<br />
Of course, this makes paying a bit different. Technically in more formal dinners, the eldest pays. Though when I go out to eat with my friends, we split the bill. Though, you never ask the restaurant to split the bill! This is unheard of practically. You instead gather all the money beforehand and pay it together. <br />

To the left, my adult Korean friend. To the right, me. Finding my shoe size in Korea... I have no luck there! The usual size for women goes up to 250. My shoe size would be around... 270? 275? I'm not sure since they don't have my size.<br />
<br />
I've heard rumors it is possible to find shoes, but I have yet to find a place. They always give me a pitying look....

Haehwa is a pretty cool place in the city to hang out. It has a lot of arcades, food and places for young people to hang out. We went there to check out a duck restaurant and afterwards we climbed a nearby mountain and Trenton took these pictures below. </div>
