Vas always sleeps, and here he is sleeping in the subway. 

Where is he looking? at the beach I hope. 

Hi Busan beach. 

I swear I didn't bully Vas. 

Busan's beach and many its many hotels. 

The Busan beach is so beautiful, and Vas is so scary! 

This place was so nice though for a seedy love hotel. It had a big-screen plasma TV, a computer hooked up to the internet (even though it was Win98, it ran very smooth and fast), and other good accomodations. 

This room costs 60000W (about $60). It was such a seedy place. First we were greated by a basket with condoms, only to find out that the bathroom had no locks and had see-through glass! Well, I guess it did have some privacy, because someone could use the curtains for the toilet... 

Tokpoki-san, so tasty in my belly. 

Vas wanted me to take a picture of this cute toy. It's caption says “ki wo tsukerou”! 

In the tokpoki store, there were many collectables including many Japanese ones. 

This costed us 4000W (about 4 USD). This was the first time I had tokpoki. Four of us became full after eating this food too (Korean oden, fried cuttlefish, and Korean gyouza). 

This blur effect looks so cool! The famous Busan bridge is in the background. 

A blurry picture of the sashimi buildings 

This is the famous bridge in Busan. 

There is a famous line of buildings that sells sashimi in Busan. Each one of these buildings (and all the floors too) sell sashimi! I don't understand how they all get business... 

My first subway ticket in Korea! 

Busan 

Tarrot Card Reading! We went to this tent-looking place (actually there were many tarrot card readers in the vicinity). Apparently waka-mono (young-ins) like to go to these places. The tarrot card reader that we went to could speak Japanese very well, so that's the medium I talked with her in. Vas had Yoojin translate Korean; he also had a terrible fortune, saying that his “surroundings” are becoming a road block for him. I asked about moving (hikosu), since it was one of the topics that I could choose from, but the reading I got was very vague. I don't think she could even fathom why I chose that topic in the first place. I don't really know what Yoojin's reading was about since it was all in Korean. 

This is the infamous “andong jimda” that I have heard so much about, and it's first impression was mouthwatering! Although it doesn't look like it, it was very spicy I can assure you! This was the place where I first learned that the side dishes almost always accompany the main dish that you order, and you can get as much as them as you want free of charge! This costed us around 20000W (about 20 USD), and filled four people up. This was when I first learned how great Busan was, food-wise. 

“andong jimda” restaurant desu! 

There are a few cars that go through these crowded streets (even more crowded around peak times); they go slow as to not to run into anyone, but I think it's kind of dangerous still! 

Busan means “many mountains,” or so I'm told. There are so many streets here in the big cities of Korea just like this one. Every block you will find a convenient store (in this picture a 7-11). 

Vas told me to take random pictures, and so I did. This is what the busy streets of Busan looks like! 

This is the first McDonald's I saw in Busan, and it's right in the center of two pretty big streets. We actually went there for really, really cheap soft cream after we ate lunch! I'm talking about 30 cents for a cone and about 75 cents for a chocolate sundae cheap!
