On Saturday Liz and I took the 3 hour train journey down south to Daegu to visit Justin, Nate, Amanda and Jeff. We found a cheap little hotel for 30,000 won - 15 quid!!! After gettin ready we headed downtown to meet everyone, when we got there we were met by about 30+ foreigners. One of Justins friends had organised a Flash Bob and was fliming it- if you dont know what a Flash Bob is then stay tuned I shall explain it as I go along! So they took us along to the busiest part of town and got us to spread out then once the cameras were set up one guy shouted a trigger word (in this case KIMCHI) then we all had to freeze in an interesting pose. Me and Liz ofcourse struggled becuase everytime we caught each others eye we started shaking with laughing (What the hell are we doing was running through my head!!!) We had to hold it for 3 mins meanwhile lots of koreans were milling in between us and looking very confused, whilst Middle and High School students were coming up and grabbing the chance to get their pictures taken with a foreigner haha! We did this at 3 other locations around downtown Daegu- Liz and I were just wondering when the drinking was gonna start! At the 3rd location there was a bit of a buzz going on in the crowd then we seeen this bright light coming through the crowds, it was the Korean MTV crew, they had hear about the event and wanted to film it and interview the organiser. Random!!! The organiser had booked out a little Mexican restaurant so afterwards they took us along there and had small buffet- free dinner cant complain! Very bizarre start to the night tho! Just as we were thinking about our first cold beer, we were handed a cinema ticket! so 10 of us we ended up going to see Watchmen, well 9 of us seen Watchmen, Liz enjoyed a Disco Nap! haha! Eventually we made it to the 1st bar, THAT. They were having a Flip Cup drinking game tournement! All I can say is I'm glad I didnt decide to join in it would have been a very messy night!!!
The rest of the night was spent dancing and laughing at the poor souls who had played Flip Cup! The next morning....I was reminded why I shouldnt drink Rum! Nightmare hangover, luckily our train was at 4:30 so we had all day to recover and mill around the shops and enjoy some 치즈 던가스 ~Cheese Donkass for lunchee! The weather was also amazing, we were in T-shirts!
Thumbs up to Daegu!
