결혼식[gyeolgonsik], Wedding Ceremony
I am at cacholic church attending at my friend's wedding ceremony. Inside of church looks just like this calm and peaceful. I just thought that wedding culture surely different at each country. Do you have wedding march in this kind of religious place or some other special place? Do you have some special event after wedding march? Korean people do western style of wedding march at first and do second round of Korean traditional style called pyebaek. Man and bride wear Hanbok and all family get together for greetings and Korean style of ceremony. Do you do western style of ceremony or your own style?

Whenever I stop by the convenient store, I try to see the different taste of Samgak gimbab. This small sized gimbab, price is 800won to 1000won is quite good meal for the snack time. One of this and ome pack of white milk, 200ml are perfect match. Do you have this gimbab in your town? If not, what kind of food do you see in your convenient store?

버스요금[Bus yogeum] Bus Fare
If you are adult and trying to use public bus in Korea, yo8 need to pay 1200won by card, 1300won by cash and 960won for early usage before 0630am. Most of passengers use card payment such as T-Money or credit card thesedays. I use my credit card to use public transportation, so just touch my wallet in the T-Money box for the easy pay. What about your town? Similar fare to use bus?

불상[bulsang], Buddha Statue
Standing buddha is at here waving his hand, saying 'Hi'. I walked around Bongeunsa temple during lunch time. It was so calm and peaceful in the temple. And this big statue and blue sky looks so beautiful today. Buddhism is one of the biggest one in Korea so far. I sometimes visit this temple to take a walk inside and see old heritage like this statue and bells. ^^

What is your religion? What is the most popular one in your country?

가격[gagyeok], Price
In Korea, we use gram or kilogram to give the unit price when it goes for weight related price. Here is ine example of veggie price, it says that 1325won per 100g. So, one pack of veggies is 2650won by the weight 200g. When I buy bigger size of product, it goes to Kg for unit price. What about your town? Do you use same unit of weight?
