Some buildings (even closed hotels and pension houses) are converted to dorms and language schools for koreans.<BR/><BR/>francesca, this blog entry is not just about telenovelas, but also about koreans in the city. You are correct in your observations about koreans. A client of ours, who married a korean whom she met years ago while working in KSA, said that she was really surprised about the negative impressions. Koreans, she said, are really well-behaved in Korea.Lazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568893041141596698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23279913.post-1157628081220475442006-09-07T19:21:00.000+08:002006-09-07T19:21:00.000+08:00nasa pinas ako last august, mga anak ko paalam: Ma...nasa pinas ako last august, mga anak ko paalam: Ma, breaktime, telenovela na, koreans...<BR/>Ngeeh?!! ang tawa ko !<BR/><BR/>eto sad story about Koreans:<BR/><BR/>a famous singer sung in a five star hotel and koreans were there.<BR/>Wala raw modo, sabi ng katsika ko.<BR/>They wear shorts and shirts during the show with their slippers!Mga mukhang bagong gising! <BR/><BR/>Then instead of clapping they Hoot!<BR/>hindi maka reklamo si singer kasi nga, the hotel managemnt seems approving the Koreans kasi they got money and bring good business to the hotel.<BR/><BR/>Yong ibang EU and Kano guests, behave naman daw but the Koreans.<BR/><BR/>Then sa bansa natin, No.1 na ang Korean tourists beating Japanese.<BR/><BR/>BECAUSE Koreans learns english and mura lang singil ng tutor, compare sa bansa nila, mahal na fees, pag labas nila, back to korean speaking sila.<BR/>I dont mind them around, tulong din sa bansa natin, but cant they behave?

Most of the time we get suckered by them. I was goaded into purchasing the entire season of Stained Glass because the TV version is so bloody frustrating. I couldn't be home every night to watch every episode. And to top it all up, in the ending, nobody lived happily ever after. YARGH! The girl was soooh delectably yummy though.

We continued the "Love story..." series last night from 10pm to 430am. I guess we still have to run 2 hours more before the tragic ending. Ah, love stories makes the world go round! And we also noticed in the story that intelligent people are so dumb when it comes to love. ha ha ha. We were so dumb then when we first fell in love with our SOs. Rationalizing came later. <BR/><BR/>happyvanny - thanks for dropping by! stay happy!Lazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568893041141596698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23279913.post-1157595682269263632006-09-07T10:21:00.000+08:002006-09-07T10:21:00.000+08:00This comment has been removed by a blog administrator.Lazarushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05568893041141596698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23279913.post-1157581962213839372006-09-07T06:32:00.000+08:002006-09-07T06:32:00.000+08:00=_) i wasn't into this kind of 'crap' either. but ...=_) i wasn't into this kind of 'crap' either. but then i discovered My Girl *wink* so now i'm ruined.<BR/><BR/>just dropped by too. thanks for the kind words...caratarixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08644892834076985194noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-23279913.post-1157557967152242922006-09-06T23:52:00.000+08:002006-09-06T23:52:00.000+08:00hehehe. didn't think you're also into this kind of...hehehe. didn't think you're also into this kind of crap mate. :)Diegohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04796691570468791646noreply@blogger.com
