삼겹살 samgyupsal: three-layered pork

삼겹살 is one of my favorite koresn food. i had it in 2000 when i visited seoul for the first time in my life. i still remember how impressed i was! it's much cheaper than 불고기 (bulkogi) and still tasted as good, or maybe better. usually you roll it with veggies such as lettus or sesame leaves, but you can also roll it with a thin slice of 떡 (rice cake), which is called 떡쌈. the best 떡쌈 place i've been in seoul is probably 떡쌈시대 (www.ttokssam.co.kr) in 종로. average wait time is like 20-30 min, but it's totally worth it!

karaoke contest 노래자랑대회

so, yonseil kli level has a karaoke contest that every class & everyone has to attend. our class picked 숫자송 (number song), a children's song just because it was easy and cute! see the link http://www.comicsong.com/play.php?win_w=1024&win_h=734&No=49

there are 20 classes (each class has about 12 students) in level 2 and we did not get any prize, but it was lots of fun practicing for the contest and most importantly we got to know each other very well.

here are some pictures from the karaoke contest:
