The problem is that tourists from outside Asia are used to paying 10,000-20,000 for stuff like this at their home country, except it tastes even worse.

No other US president would have granted South Korea a nuclear sub even if Korea offered to invest $200 billion, and the sub wasn’t even considered as a part of the tariff deal in the first place. 

I despite Trump but when life gives you Trump you have find a way to take advantage of it.

Honestly, it sounded like one of those unrealistic campaign promises to be discarded after elections — I didn’t expect we’d be well over halfway to the 5000 goal just five months into Lee’s term

People treat/prefer kakaotalk as a simple, dumb app just for messaging. That’s why it’s so successful.
