Korean Quickie – Mothers and Daughters
The stuff described here happened a while ago. A lot of interesting things happen to me in Korea, but I can’t always think of a way to frame them for a blog post. Some recent events made me think of this incident. They gave me a reason to write it, as well as something to tie it all together. Hope you think it’s well written, that the few alliterations and assonances are clever, that it had something to say, and that, overall, I’m pretty dope. If you do, thank you.

Me and a co-worker of mine started taking Muay Thai classes in April. His name is Mr. 김(Kim) and since I arrived last December he’s taken to the idea of being my older brother – my 형님. He wants to give me advice and expose me to Korean culture. It was Mr. 김(Kim) who told me about the Muay Thai gym.
I find the relationship to be a bit overwhelming sometimes, but he means well and I’m thankful for the attention and the free dinners he sometimes takes me out to.
