Today was an interesting day. In the morning we were lectured by Brain Myers, and American professor who teaches in Busan. His lecture was very informative and, I felt, looked at North Korea with more of a neutral tone than most. I am sure he interjected some of his personal biases (but what lecturer doesn't) but I think he gave us some valid information that helps us to be more informed on issues related to North Korea. He has a book coming out in October of this year titled "The Cleanest Race" which I recommend anyone interested in propaganda or North Korea should take a lo
ok at.
ok at.We had 4 hours off this afternoon, which most people used to catch up on their sleep but I used to catch up on some email and reading. At 4 PM the buses picked us up and took us to a cooking class. We were taught how to make Jeyuk Bog-gum (a spicy pork dish) and Hae-mul Pageon (pan-fried sea-food green onion). The pork dish was
very spicy and was delicious and the other dish (which was described as Korean pizza) did not turn out quite as well but was very good as well. Our workspace in the kitchen was at the far end from the air conditioner and it was smokin hot by the time we were done.

Have a great night.
