Changuimun Gate (창의문) Nestled between Inwang and Bugak mountains, Buamdong (부암동) is a peaceful neighborhood located in the center of Seoul, shielded by nature from the neon and concrete that drench the remainder of the metropolis. Boasting only a single bus stop, Buamdong is not the most convenient place to visit. It's this very remoteness, however, that has allowed the area to preserve its unique charm, seemingly unchanged by time. Last year, I spent many a lazy Sunday afternoon in Buamdong, just a short bus ride from my apartment in adjacent Pyeongchangdong

Part of my personal Korean library <3 I'm a writer, so it kind of goes without saying that I'm also a big reader. When I first moved to Korea back in 2010 I had this naïve idea in my head that I would be giving up reading for a whole year and that I would just have to do without my books since there probably wouldn't be any here. Boy, was I wrong! My friend took me to my first used bookstore in Seoul and I was hooked on books again. Of course, electronic readers have made it easier than ever to get our hand on the latest reads, but sometimes there's no better feeling than thumbing through the shelves of a used bookstore

This month on The Korea Blog, I'm exploring the ancient Silla capital of Korea: Gyeongju. Last week, I stepped inside Bulguksa and the Seokguram Grotto, two of the city's most famous attractions; however, some feel you can't say you've been to Geyongju until you've been to Namsan. So in this second installment, we're going to meet that challenge and hike the trails of Namsan. Namsan, the South Mountain Namsan (남산) is a relatively small mountain to the south of the city center

There are a few handful of celebrity siblings in the K-Pop world, and it’s great to see them interact on stage or collaborate in magazine pictorials, but it’s a little more difficult, for some reason, to see how they would interact in their daily life. On June 14, 2NE1’s Sandara Park posted a long story on her Twitter made up of several posts. “I woke up a little bit earlier, but mom was already out and [MBLAQ's] Thunder came home all of a sudden.
