In about three weeks, I'll be leaving South Korea. I've been living here as a teacher (and also a part-time volunteer journalist) for about five years. When I got here I had no idea SC even existed, but it managed to color three years of my life with unique experiences. Things I'm Going to Miss: ~ Getting involved in the eSports scene. (Even though I...

I was one of the prize winners at a competition for figure-based photos in one of my local figure shops (www.nonno21.com) I haven't been there for a while because their monthly markets kept clashing with an anime convention I attend. I was browsing their blog today and it turns out they've used my photo for their official 2012 calendar. (I'm not ...

I bought a packet of 얼초 from Daiso (sort of like a dollar store.) the other day without knowing they were DIY chocolates. TBH I had way too much fun making these despite not being very well. I made a video of my amazing(ly lazy and sweary) foray into the world of cooking. (I can actually cook, but I love random stuff like this.) http://...

Something which happened recently made me feel quite isolated. I stood up in front of a couple of hundred strangers (around the same age ...

I'm currently nervous as hell (I've only visited Fukuoka before a couple of times.) and I hate flying (only really take off, but it's kind of scary anyway.) I'll be staying in Asakusa (at a hostel because I'm cheap as all hell.) and then trundling off to Ikebukuro to meet some fellow english teacher friends, and hit Namja Town to ...

It seems like recently everything annoys me - people, food, my own habits, money, etc. The behavior of others is probably the main issue - people pushing into queues on the subway, making noise in the goshiwon where I live beyond midnight, etc. They're all things I'd never...

Notes: It's been almost a year since I did one of these, and I'm having a bit of a rough day. Does anyone remember me? ㅋㅋㅋ Anyway, if you're similarly bored then please go ahead and ask me anything about life post-eSports journalism living in Seoul. (Or about figure collecting etc.) Fri, 03 Jun 2011 14:06:23 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=229266 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=211062 NeverGG Notes: I went to Volks Korea with cgivisionary yesterday and somehow walked out with a limited edition (the last one actually) Mai from King of Fighters Dollfie Dream. Her default outfit, whilst suitably boobtacular and glorious would probably have given some old ladies a heart attack. So I re-dressed her more demurely for a photoshoot at my location of choice (it's close to my house...) Chi...

I can't do event photography due to my health still being pretty bad, and having sold my super expensive lens to get money for shipping my book collection home. However, I'm having fun just doing practice shoots using my figure collection. I decorated six Phat playsets to make a classroom, and transported one f...

Hi everyone. This is just a quick update to show the finished best wishes card for Woo Jungho (Violet.) I'd like to say a huge thank you to OpticalShot for translating everyones' messages into Korean and making a Korean introduction for us. Also to sudo.era for providing the front cover...

So does anyone have any more modern recs for horror/mystery movies? (Dramas/video games too if anyone knows of any.) I can watch online walkthroughs of games on Youtube even if I can't console game right now ;_; I've already done this for; ~ Biohazard 5. ~ Fatal Frame Series. ~...

Before Yongsan's I-Park Mall opened up their newest branch of 'Hobby Square' it was difficult to find anything in terms of figures or model kits here in Seoul. Dedicated shops tend to close down quickly due to the large amounts of browsing customers, but the small amount of purchasers. The main ...

Sadly, I'm not going to the PL finals. I was planning to, but unfortunately I've gone down with something that means walking/sitting down are both quite difficult for me right now. (I'm also broker than broke.) I won't go in to the gory details, but it's pretty painful ;_; Anyway...

For myself it's 'Tokusatsu' (part of the reason I retired from full-time coverage was to devote more time to this.) There's more information about my hobby underneath the spoiler :D Wed, 14 Jul 2010 12:53:34 +0900 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=136149 http://www.teamliquid.net/blogs/viewblog.php?topic_id=135666 NeverGG My copies of Wara Volumes one and two. Notes: Wara! Welcome to Convenience Store is a Naver blog comic which has recently been collected into a two volume manhwa (Korean version of manga.) It also decorates the sides of Wara! Milk and Pinecool Shine juice in 7/11 stores. Some Wara! Milk cartons. I thought it might be useful and fun for those of us who are studying Korean...

Notes: It's been over ten months since I last made one of these question blogs. A hell of a lot has changed. I'm bored to pieces and attempting to ignore food cravings so go for it TL. Ask me anything.

The current status of my eSports related projects looks like this; Current Projects: + FlaSh Well Wishes Card - ending on July 1st (16 more days.) It's already being preppe...

So please, enjoy this spam of my photos of IU from the Hana MSL finals. She was actually pretty energetic and cute this time. It was much, much better than her performance at IEF in Suwon.

There is no physical way to do both, because one is at World Cup Stadium in Seoul and the other is at Gimpo Airport in...well Gimpo. I can access both locations easily via the subway/taxis (Although finding the hangar might be a strange/slightly awkward experience.) So I'm now stuck with the problem of; POLLING ...
