Sunday wasn't as busy. We spent the morning at the hostel since we all had work or homework to finish. Sue's friend Keely, who is teaching English on a Fulbright grant, met up with us for lunch. We ended up getting jajangmeon (炸酱面) which is technically Chinese food, but the Korean version was pretty tasty. Afterwards, we got some pot bingsu, which is shaved ice topped with condensed milk, azuki, fruit, and ice cream. With all these delicious desserts and fried street snacks, I'm curious as to how Koreans remain so skinny.
Afterwards, we went to Hongdae, which is a shopping, eating, drinking area. There was a flea market with crafts made by Hongdae University students (apparently the art program there is the best) and I picked up some cute bottle cap cellphone danglies.
We then went to the National Museum of Korea. I really liked spending the rest of the afternoon there and learning a little about Korean history. I've always been a big fan of celadon pottery and now I have a new interest in roof tiles.
