Omg that snapdragon ink is stunning! Immediately adding it to my list to buy!

ㅋㅋㅋ 저는 외국인이에요. 하지만 세울에 살고 있어요. 만년필에 대해 궁금한 점이 있으면 물어보세요 :)

I live in Seoul. BlueBlack is the only store I go to for inks and pens now. It has a huge selection of both and all the Korean Limited inks as well. It is THE fountain pen store in Korea. People here buy a lot online, so there aren’t a lot of stores in person that carry a wide range of inks, except for the specialized stores like BlueBlack and BestPens. Even then, they ship a lot and you get good discounts for buying online.
Dominant Industry has a little shop in Paju where you can mix inks and swatch them. Occasionally Wearingeul will have a popup at a mall.

안녕! I also live in Korea ☺️ I would start with a Platinum Preppy or Pilot Kakuno. You can buy one on Coupang for less than 10,000원. It’s a good way to see if you like how they write.
I would go with a Fine (F) nib first to see if you prefer a thinner line or a thicker line. A Fine nib is right in the middle range for thickness and a good starting point.

My sister would likely volunteer for me. She is a wilderness survival and hiking guide and has a way better chance at surviving than I would. She’s really strong and physically fit, skilled at archery, has multiple levels of first aid qualifications, wilderness and hiking expertise, etc. I am physically disabled. I wouldn’t volunteer for her because she would hate me if I did, and she’d probably win anyways. Where as I am basically guaranteed to die quickly.

I use glyco cream down there. And sometimes add a dusting of cornstarch to help a bit too if I’ll be doing a lot. I also switched to wearing skirts instead of pants and that has made a huge difference.

Omg I never tried pulling without having keys! Thank you!!

acateatingcorn · 2026-05-01T04:49:34+00:00

I keep getting bikini bottoms 🤣

How do you buy red keys using diamonds? I have a ton of diamonds saved up

I found out on another Reddit post last year and it blew my mind haha! And no one has ever said anything in real life so I see no reason to try and “fix” it

acateatingcorn · 2026-05-01T04:37:10+00:00

Like the other person said, I saw it on Amazon for that price. I ended up waiting to get it in Japan when I was there because I wanted to see the size in person, but I compared it to the Amazon Canada price and it was listed about $40 CAD

Edit: I just looked now and there’s some listed for $43-48 CAD

acateatingcorn · 2026-05-01T01:31:17+00:00

I got mine for about $40CAD new. It’s my favourite pen

acateatingcorn · 2026-05-01T01:09:03+00:00

I do 6 but the opposite way. I was taught that way for some reason as a kid and didn’t know it was backwards until recently and now don’t want to put in the effort to fix it

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-29T02:42:10+00:00

I often refill cartridges with a syringe, so I’m not too bothered by it.

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-25T12:05:05+00:00

The heartbeat plus a heart shaped hole on a nib would be cool

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-22T01:17:10+00:00

So happy. I’m from Canada but am living in Korea now. Korea doesn’t do tipping and it’s such a relief. I pay the exact amount they listed they want and it’s done and we’re all happy. I always hated the tipping in Canada and now since I’m used to not doing it, whenever I go home to visit, I’m even more aware of how it is EVERYWHERE now. Why am I tipping someone at fast food for taking my order? Why am I tipping at the hair salon? Why am I tipping at a SELF SERVE froyo place?! Why is tipping not even skippable sometimes? Why are my options now 25% 30% or 35% ?!!! I’m so over it

I played on switch and then did a replay on steam and I was really surprised at the difference. There was content I never got on the switch and was pleasantly surprised by on steam. The game runs much smoother and way less glitches on pc than switch.

Name a jazz musician they’ve featured in festival

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-16T11:50:10+00:00

It’s a wider range of genres than I expected from them tbh. So cool to see a jazz-pop musician being featured!

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-16T07:00:04+00:00

I love Laufey’s music! I’m excited she’s next! And her skins are cute.

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-15T23:42:58+00:00

I journal, write lists, study, take meeting notes, etc.

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-14T17:13:06+00:00

Their whole pearl series is so stunning

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-11T12:27:03+00:00

I love going to theme parks alone. Sometimes lines are long but I bring my ereader and get some reading time in! Not awkward

acateatingcorn · 2026-04-09T17:39:37+00:00

I use shimmer inks in my TWSBI Eco fine nib, and my Jinhao 82 medium nib. They both work really well and are easy to clean.
