Night in Bucheon

So this is my first multimedia video overseas. Not exactly up to my personal standards, but it was shot in one hazy night (my very first night out in Korea), with an 18-55 3.5-5.6 in very low light, a thrifty 50, and I wasn't even allowed to take pictures in the last club of the night.

The first pictures are from my first Korean dinner, sam gup sal, which is the most delicious thing in Korea. It is thick pieces of bacon grilled in front of you (you do it yourself) wrapped in lettuce and filled with all sorts of interesting side dishes...oh and of course kimchee.

Then we went to Devin's apartment for some pregaming before heading to, the details are a little blurry at this point, but I think it was called Rhythm and Booze.

The no picture taking at the end of the night probably had something to do with the fact that after leaving Rhythm and Booze we accidentally wandered into a "club" instead of a "night club" or maybe it is the other way around. But either way, one is the normal kind of club, and the other (the one we accidentally ended up in) is not.

So we walked into the entrance of this place, and we were immediately surrounded by bouncers and ushers, who proceeded to escort us to a table. We thought "oh that is kind of nice/strange" then they brought us a bottle of whiskey, a huge platter of fruit, and beers. Then they started, one by one, bringing all of these Korean girls to us. Since I don't speak the language, I am not entirely sure what the deal was, but I am fairly sure they were trying to sell them to us. We promptly left...after I got yelled at for taking pictures, but not before I shot all of these from the hip. Stickin' it to the man.
