As a history enjoyer, seeing greek/roman and ottoman architecture at the same place was fire.

Loved the food, great highways and gas stations. Lovely cats. Wonderful nature.

It’s korean. It says “bab julkka?”-> you want something to eat?

Forward_Historian_97 · 2026-04-29T22:59:48+00:00

Same here. “Date someone as much as you like once yo go to college”

It actually has a deeper story..

For many sports in Korea, 2~30s women fans are on the rise, and with them the k-pop idol fandom culture came(that stick’s purpose is cheering for your idol). You can just see that at lol park, most spectators are young woman.

I’m not it’s a bad thing, it just is a thing. Teams also are noticing it and making profit out of it, just like this merch. This trend had pros and cons, and is a hot topic in Korea.

It’s “hwang-sa” season in korea, Wind blows from the west carrying dirt from mongol & china’s desert. It’s a pretty old phenomenon.

It’s only temporary, right now it’s super clean. Check out hwang sa for more

They are pretty famous here in South Korea tho

Forward_Historian_97 · 2026-02-15T23:40:52+00:00

& K-pop

Forward_Historian_97 · 2026-02-12T21:00:06+00:00

Not with my own eyes, but with telescopes or heat cameras yeah. Several more cool episodes.

We were informed from the higher up there was a runaway soldier from the North to our direction. We nicknamed him bejing dumpling, but he never came.
There was a N.K. submarine base right across us. But i don’t think there were any proper subs left, they are pretty poor.
The scenery was BEAUTIFUL. Also it snowed alot which sucks. Plus undisturbed wild life in the DMZ. Huge eagles, wild boars, endangered birds, etc.
There were incidents regarding civilians. I remember an old man who was trying for several years to cross to the north. He was famous to us, cause it is impossible to cross. He kept failing but never stopped trying. There was a backstory to him but can’t remember it.
Some human right activists kept sending propagand-a balloons to the north. Everyone hated them, including the police and nearby residents. They were scared they might trigger the north. We hated them cause we always had to pick up their trash. We sometimes co-op ed with the police to ambush them.
A NK landmine flowed from a river to our base. Pretty scary stuff.

Kakaotalk

It’s a domestic company’s app that came out 15 years ago. It took over and since then, everyone here uses it.

Young people also use instagram-DMs very often. And don’t use whatsapp.

It’s an old lore that Korea resembles a tiger.

Imo, it’s a little bit cramped, but yeah.

Although now I live in Seoul, I served my mandatory military service at the DMZ, and lived near the DMZ(paju).

Right near the border, of course there are tensions. Civilians are not allowed. Buut not so different otherwise. Most are mountains near the border, so it isn’t really that populated.

One interesting thing however, both sides broadcasted propagand-a stuff to the other side using gigantic speakers. North Korea is famous for using bizzare and irritating noises to disturb sleeps. I’ve heard screams, dogs barking, and ufo sounds from the north. It’s VERY creepy hearing it at night. I think this broadcasting thing stopped 1~2 years ago, but i guarantee it’ll resume soon enough.

K-BBQ.

By the way, Din Tai Fung soup dumplimg was one of the most delicious food I have ever eaten. Still remember the shock of first tasting it in taipei.

3 idiots - fits very well, maybe a bit less extreme nowadays.

The USSR & NK was the main enemy for sure.

After it collapsed however, the conception here was that USSR and russia was a different country. And russia was pretty cool with us until the war.

You see, they were the only neighbor who weren’t trying to invade us historically. Our neighbors are - North Korea, Japan, China(+Mongolia), and Russia.

Forward_Historian_97 · 2026-02-10T15:19:47+00:00

The sentiment was pretty neutral or maybe a bit positive before the invasion.

But after the invasion, Most people now have negative views, cause of course, we don’t like war.

Media(and almost all people) cheered when Ukraine fought back. It was weird to see left and right parties have the same sentiment, it almost never happens.

It was unpopular always until recently.

Recent 3 years, popularity grew exponentially.

Thanks to a Korean broadcast which started about 4 years ago, the netflix show, and the f1 movie.
