Halloween

(Kyle Speaking) The American institution that is Halloween is for the most part non-existent in Korea. Most people know about it through either movies or what they learn in English class from teachers such as yours truly but no one really celebrates the holiday. Nick and I set out to change that. Talking it over with the boys of Morning of Owl, we decided that a party needed to be thrown where a cultural exchange could be set up.....to share and learn about one another' customs of course. I snapped a few photos of the serious interaction and discourse that occurred.


Nick and I told the boys on Monday that the party would be happening on Thursday October 30th. With creativity reminiscent of the boys from 1524 Fell, Morning of Owl was able throw together these ensembles in no time. From left to right we have (b-boy names): Issue, Seung Ju, Owl'd, Mi A, Q, Rocket, Cho, and Sknuf.


To Matty D, Joe, Freddy, Mughen, Julian, Boston Jon, and any other east coast kid I ever met, I'm sorry. But you know Nick and I had to fully endorse the west coast to all the boys of MoO.







Nick made his signature carbonara pasta for everyone. Granted, the ingredients were a little different because we are in Korea, but everyone loved it. By the way the new white guy face belongs to a Frenchman named Kevin whom we met in the supermarket. Good guy.



This Mr. Kim Bab costume originally belonged to Nick. Gim bab (pronounced Kim Bop) is a cheap Korean rice roll that is similar to sushi that both Nick and I love.



Our cultural exchange session involved carving jack-o-lanterns....13 of them to be exact. Piece of advice; don't leave 13 carved pumpkins in your apartment and then take off to the other side of the country for the weekend.





This is probably the best and most realitic advertisement for soju there is.




Finished product. Not bad for the first Korean Halloween.
