Why do you like ellui more than Octagon? I agree actually cuz I like the huge open 2nd floor on ellui where it's easier to chill /talk. But for girls / music Octagon is way ahead.

You could even start learning some now. Look up the website 'All Japanese All the Time' (the method can be used with any language).

True.

http://korean.sogang.ac.kr/ - best material online to learn Korean imo
www.memrise.com - very good site to memorize random vocabulary for every major language

Re: Ask A Pro about Living in Seoul, South Korea

best advice. speaking the language coming from English may BR difficult, but at least learning the literature/reading/writing is extremely easy. I honestly think its easier than the English language. before I went to Korea for a month, I could barely read and write my own name, but after constantly reading/texting in Korean I can do the basics. bishes love kakao talk lol

kakao talk is good, I'd recommend Skout App on your phone, chatting some nice girls then adding them on kakao

I didn't know Deagu, of all cities had a legal poker room. It looks really small and only foreigners playing there.
Deagu is too hot in the summer anyway sitting in the middle of a huge valley.
Maybe worth going for the 10 mil tourney.

Re: Ask A Pro about Living in Seoul, South Korea

anyone living/staying in the Ulsan area? I just got here and I need to know where I can get a prepaid phone to make international calls... Anyone know where I can buy/how much it costs?

Also if anyone knows of any poker rooms in Ulsan that would be nice to know as well
