At night time han river walk areas are like this. I'm sure you've been there.. We are gonna have to scout out a good spot though.. There are lots of river walk areas.. Some with good view and some not so good...

I lived in Hannam-dong, i didnt think anyone knew about that place!

well i'm not sure how "old" those photos are... but it's good enough for me. sure she's not like supermodel material, but i'm sure we can do something about that during the shoots. but yeah, leeboy those places look like a good place... after all, we're just getting our feet wet.

what kind of camera are you planning on getting? i'm working on a wireless speedflash setup (strobist.blogspot.com) for photoshoots on the go...

hmmm... yeah, ask the girls if they are interested. it could never hurt to have a "normal" photoshoot to add into the portfolio. and no, i'm not really just focusing on just "KDM" girls... this girl is actually half Taiwanese half Korean. but anyways, i was able to snag my friend's apartment for some nice "home/bedroom/kitchen/livingroom" shots next week... hopefully these turn out well. i don't think there is a nice place on POST besides the Dragon Hill Lodge (Base Hotel).

A question for everyone who drives off post... Especially leeboy. I am on this detail which has me driving from camp humphreys to yongin everyday. Now I see a crap load of cameras on the street signs when Im on the expressway and what not. My question is, which of those cameras actually take the picture to see if you are speeding. I know that the bigger camera with the 2 lens's side by side does take pictures of the cars but what about the smaller cameras? Im guessing those are just to monitor traffic and see if there are any accidents? Because I have been slowing down for only the big ones.

Yeah, most of them work and some don't. Because these cameras are exposed to harsh environmental conditions they are prone to malfunctions.. Korean navigation tells me where these fixed cameras are, so I slow down when I pass them...

Your folks must be LOADED then right? I have a friend who lives right next to Gun Hee Lee, the CEO of Samsung. From my buddy's 2nd floor balcony I see his backyard and his living room, etc... Haha~ I'm not into Voyeurism though..

Dude @ G-Lux also said that if you're going 260+ kmh, they can't capture. They done a couple runs with a LP640 and hit almost 315ish, Incheon straights (which by the way, I'd love to go full throttle on with their LP or their 430 )
But I don't think you'll be doing near 260 Cliff

I just made it to Korea a few days ago. I spent the night in Yongsan and now they sent me to Camp Stanley for like 2 weeks of in-processing. It sucks; they won't let us leave base or drink until I'm in humphreys.

Can't wait to get to there and stop living out of my suit case. When I do finally get some freedom I'll let yall know and maybe yall can show me around a lil bit. Show me where to get a good phone and check out some cars or something.

I'm shopping for a new car, really thinking hard about the GTR. I'd like to save about 20k more before I jump on something like that though.

How did the photo shoot turn out?

First, welcome to Korea. It's a great opportunity for you to learn different culture, so try to go out and experience as much as possible.

Second, you are gonna need at least $40K for GTR 34. Import cars are very expensive in Korea.

Yeah, I'm down. Pick a place and time. I just got back from the ski resort... so I have no clue where to go take pictures. Also, remember, my Z is a 2 seater.. If 3 of us is going to meet, we need to figure out how we are going to move around town...
