Friday night some of us went clubbing in Hongdaemun.. We were so overdressed and looked so lost trying to get there; even though we're all ethnically Korean we stick out so obviously as Americans here!
The club was one thing in Korea that was actually just as expensive as in the States. It was incredibly crowded; by 1 the staircases were even packed with people. I don't know if it was because it was crowded or what, but I felt like most people weren't even dancing, they were kindof just chillin. While my friends and I died in heels, we saw so many girls with baggy tees and Nikes. We left club NB2 to try to find somewhere else to go, but we were def ripped off and our wristbands didn't let us in anywhere else..
We found other kids in the program on the street and we all just stepped into a minimart to get some beers and sat around trying to figure out what to do. We ended up going to that same club and leaving not too long after, and tried to get a cab back to campus. None of the cabs wanted to take us though! The riots were still going on, and close to our school in Shinchon, so the roads were apparently blocked. (The riots are about the South Korean's President to import US beef even after reported cases of Mad Cow; http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/asiapcf/06/01/

We finally got a cab to take us back, and we took off our shoes and made it back to the dorms.
