New Years in Seoul
With the cancellation of our 9-11 classes, we were able to make the 9:30 bus to Seoul on New Years Eve. Despite concerns about potential traffic, the bus ride was a quick 90 minutes. We were at our friend's apartment with time to celebrate before literally ringing in the new year: the Koreans hold a bell ringing ceremony at midnight. The bell is struck 33 times to represent the 33 fighters who died for the restoration of Korea.
We watched the bell for all of 5 rings and then departed for a night of clubbing. We found our way to a club that lived up to its unoriginal name- Club NB (NB= Noise Basement).
It was loud. It was packed. It was a good time.
Happy New Year!
