Do you have any ideas or recommendations about how someone in the US can get Korean novels like 여름, 어디선가 시체가? It sounds like a book I'd like, and working through it would definitely be motivational for my Korean learning. Thanks!
Hello, Gaylene! I have not purchased from them myself yet, but there is a website called Kbookstore dot com that sells books in Korean to us folks in the US. Here's a link to 여름, 어디선가 시체가: https://kbookstore.com/product/9791130608945/ Hope that helps!
Hi Ari! It's been a really long time since I've commented, but I just wanted to say thank you for uploading whenever you can, learning new things from you is a highlight of my week! 아리 씨 멋진 사람이야!
Hello Ari, Just walked in after a v long evening but comfortable walk and got your multiplex post.
Still a bit up adrenaline wise, and so perhaps impulsively commenting that maybe you delete Chatty in your intro, if you wish, to alternatives like Clever, Conversational, Confidential, Confrontational ( I could go on as I explore the English dictionary, whose history I am a bit following). I could go on.
So Cold Noodle Soup is so so brilliant.
Where I spent many summers 38C would have been a slightly less worse day, though not good, but up into 40s plus not uncommon. Our days structured around the temp.
Your reading list is v tempting and different. I read from old school of Agatha Christie re mystery etc. But have moved on, and will read Wedding Syndrome.
Having said that some of Agatha's short stories quite interesting.
And so much more.
And left with feeling complex emotions about the onions I have, and should I talk more to them after reading your comments.
One thing slightly changing in my life in next month or so, so maybe able to grab your book, finally.
Sorry Ari, Australian intended compliments don't always translate well.
Do not change your monika (may need an Aus/ROW dictionary for this) unless you really, really want to.
Chatty is So Quite Cool, but you are Bigger than that, if you don't know, in terms of of shared content, info and so much more. So, more than a chat !!
Love your stuff so much.
I am a man who needed to know numbers, but worked with people.
You are in 20 of 8.2 billion of people I admire ( cant find a online calculator to do the math, but is an extremely small fractional percentage of current Earthlings).
Keep Contemplating and Writing.
And. there is a Korean Thing happening here in Oz if you don't know.
Hi Ari! I’ve been enjoying your writing for some time now — find myself really looking forward to each post now. The onion story is so touching! Reminded me of the first time I heard of such experiments. It was a long while ago but my first reaction was the feeling of unfairness. Like, just for the sake of an experiment an innocent plant has to endure all the cruel words and possibly wither because of them? Seems really harsh, doesn’t it? So I really loved that the story’s author found courage to support the poor little onion in her classroom.
Also, the books you’ve described all sound so fun! I really need to make more effort with learning Korean so I can read books in my own (I’m nowhere near that level yet…)
