Roll up! Roll up!
The speakers are thumping with the heavy bass line from a remixed version of some 90s tune. The coloured lights are flashing in all directions, the girls are giving it everything they've got in tiny skirts and tassly titty tops, whilst the guys are standing back, not doing much but admiring the view and trying to look cool.
Sounds more like a typical nightclub in the early hours. But don't be fooled, it's early afternoon out on the streets of Korea. These performances occur regularly and their reason is inform the general public that there's a sale on! What I find the strangest about all this, is that they happen all year round. Even in the minus degrees, girls can be spotted at the side of the road jumping round with dance moves Take That would have been envious of, and still wearing hardly anything.
It doesn't surprise me that the amount of road accidents is so high here with all that distraction. Especially when I remember that Matt told me there were numerous car crashes at the roundabout in the little northern town of Sandbach, (England) after a lingerie shop opened there. Can you picture these girls strutting their stuff in your home town, outside Somerfield or some other shop? I don't think so!

So glad you are still having such an interesting time! Felt tempted for a moment to drop everything and come and work as a teacher in Korea with you, but then remembered I was trying to build up a career here as a counsellor. Oh, well. Enjoy your freedom and experiences. With love from Charlie x
i think i love you
