I was recently shown the following two music videos. Why I had not heard of or discovered them before now remains an utter mystery. The reason I say this is because, when viewed together, these videos completely epitomize life in Korea.
The songs are performed by a group called the EV Boyz. They are quite popular among expats in Korea, maybe even with some Koreans as well. I just found out about them so I really can't say.
Anyway, these videos are absolutely amazing. They are so dead-on and therefore speak volumes about the expat experience here.
If you've ever wondered what it's like for me, "kickin it" in Korea, this 1st video will give you a pretty decent idea...
After watching the 1st video, it is rather imperative to understand that there is a stereotype here for male foreigners to date korean women. I'm not gonna argue against this stereotype, and neither do the EV Boyz. Just be forewarned, everything in this video (sharing dried squid, giggling on the subway, and especially the matching outfits) is true.

Hilarious. Yeah, at my orientation in Seoul, one of the lecturers, an English teacher, showed us the first one. It's funnier now, though. I was reminded while watching it that I haven't had soju in a while. Might have to do it Korean style this weekend. :)
