#4: Happy Valentine's Day!

LOOOOOOOVE IS IN THE AIR! (Note to self: the next time I put in pictures for occasions... I should totally get the Cafe Seoul crew to do it.)

HAPPY VALENTINE'S DAY!! Sending lots of love to all our listeners all around the world from Seoul, the heart of Korea!

 

This instalment of Cafe Seoul sees some of our characters finding a love interest... Oooooh! Someone catches the eye of our super hero Kimchi Kim. Love Adventures sees a chivalrous young man saving June from a lorry. Who is this man? Will June find true love with her mysterious hero? Kekeke. In the hagwon, we have a bossy girl Sora who um... shall I say collects boyfriends because she wants to consider her options. Evidently girls are smarter than boys HAHA! We also find out about a new candy called Cinnamon Blurts, of which will make you speak the truth and nothing but the truth! It'll be interesting if it were real - I wonder how many couples will stay together after eating that candy... hiak hiak hiak.... ;)

This episode has to be my favouritest yet! It's hilarious and cute who which girl wouldn't like to hear an episode about lurrrrrrrrve. This episode is a little naughty, so... I guess how funny this episode it is to you is how deep your head is in the gutter - BWAHAHA. Yeah, I've got a gutterbrain, but... who doesn't?! Heh heh. Those that deny would probably have their heads down in the gutter a lot further than you think.

One thing about Valentine's Day in Korea is that it's celebrated very differently. 14 February is a day whereby girls give nice chocolates to the boy they like, while every other boy gets cheapo chocolate as a sign of friendship. And then a month later on 14 March, there is White Day where boys give the girls chocolate in return. And a month later, on 14 April, single unhappy people who got no love on Valentine’s Day dress in black to wallow in their self pity and enjoy each others’ miserable company. Awww, sad.

Unfortunately, I have never received flowers or chocolate in all my 25 years. Sigh, extremely sad. I think I just dated the wrong people. Well, I was young and foolish back then... Lol. However, I did have memories of high school when my group of girlfriends would make presents for each other for Valentine's Day. So, well I guess I can say I've received something for Valentine's before. :) What is your most memorable Valentine's Day experience? Share it with us!
