hell no im not eating any mahn doo! I heard that they do shady **** to that stuff. Only galbi for me ahaha. I had no idea that Samsung owned so many things here. I know they repped electronics but here theyve got apartment buildings and other stuff that trips me out. and ch@mp, rice to me doesnt mean "asian" it means "rice" as in a car that looks like crap. Try a search on the word rice and im sure you will find many topics about 8 foot Kamikazee-Attack-Shogun-Straife-spoilers and accord blackwidow bodykits forced onto other cars. Yeah about that redlight district, and staying away...... CANT DO HOMIE!! HAHA. I didnt hear about the Maybach getting hit but then again I dont understand the news here. On another note the girls man... the girls. They are so fing hot, its like a car show everyday here! Im heading to Itaewon today to get a digi camera with a couple friends from Boston and Cali. later

Haha, add another natural-born 100% Korean here. I didn't know there were so many Koreans in this forum.
Anyway, first of all, I think you are the north part of Seoul. If you come to south, Kangnam gu, I guarantee you will see more exotics and high-end German cars than Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills (Of course a little exaggeration
) I live in that "Tower Palace" Someone mentioned above and yes, if you go to the underground parking lot, you will see Ferrari, Lambo Murci, Porches Merceds SL55 AMG, and all kinds of Luxury sedans you can imagine.
And on another, you can see all different JDM Cars in Korea that you can't see in US that often, since Japan is right next to Korea. You still haven't seen any R32,33,34 GT-R's?
And one more thing, there are quite a few Z's out there too, at least more than 10 as far as I know. Most of them are RHD imported from Japan, but they also have some LHD imported from US. But almost none of them were seriously modified tho. (All I've seen were stock)
I can't wait until I finish up modding my Z and take it back to Korea in 2-3 years. (Yes, I won't sell this baby and keep it til it's salvaged) It'll be dope!

12 months on the DMZ will cure any desire to revisit Korea. That, and the smell. Never got used to the smell.

Here is one suggestion, instead of going to Itaewon, go across the bridge and get down to Apgujung-dong. That's where all those hot and rich chicks hang out. Even one of the most crowded street is named after the "Rodeo Drive" in Beverly Hills!
And I'm sure you'll see some nice cars out there too. (Of course, in night time)Red light district? Hahahah! I know that once you get there, you'll never miss US again.
And for that incident happened to CEO of Samsung, basically the guy with Hyundai Elantra (Avante for KDM name) parked his car right next to Maybach and the kid at the back door basically kicked the door to get out and it made a huge "DOOR DING" to Maybach. Ouch!

Hey, since you're going to Itaewon, you gotta spend some time at the MTV club for me. That place was a trip!!! Oh, and take pictures of all the nice stuff so that Stopgo can see all the good things he missed by being stuck on the DMZ for 12 months!
(I'm sure Scott is going to get me later for saying that!)

Holy cow there are a lot of Koreans here, myself I was born in Yongsan, South Korea (which is a US military base..so technically its US soil).
Yongsan is in Seoul, and dang that was one heck of a cool (and one heck of a large) city.

"Havent seen a Z here and I swear no one even knows what it is..."
There are not many z33s in korea yet but it doesn't mean they don't know what z is. =)
There are a lot of 'Fairlady' version of z32s, and Skyline GTS, GT-R32,33,34...etc and # of japanese sports cars keep increasing.
So many korean people are crazy about cars.
As seanrulz said if you go down to south(KangNam, ApGuJung, ChungDam,...), you could see a lot of super cars there within a month such like Ferraris, Porsches, Lambos, Maybach, RR, fully tuned mercedes and bimmers. if you r lucky, you could even see Enzo and Carrera GT.
Well, have fun~! =)

I disagree, but you're right, I hadn't heard anything. Got a link to a story (yeah, in English.) I'd be curious to know if I had been eating scrapings out of a Kimche ditch for a whole year! Kelly
By the way, with you being in Maryland, are you coming to the Evolution meet?

They are talking about the execution 24/7 on the news stations here. I wouldnt be surprised if South Korea sent infantry to Iraq now because they only had medics there. On another note, they tried to charge me $200,000 won for a digi camera yesterday ahahahaha I just walked out, should have bought one in the states. Went to Itaewon and got drunk with friends yesterday and cruised hooker hill. Some of the hookers are trife, but some of them looked really hot ahaha now did I pass? I'll leave that up to your imagination ahaha
