Posted on 26 Dec 202426 Dec 2024 by CY

We saw a number of signage that made us chuckle/giggle/ROFL this trip! South Koreans certainly have a good sense of humor, intentional or not. A number of these I posted to Facebook; but here is a selection of some of the fun moments that made this trip extra memorable!

I’m sorry to hear that. :(
(At Gwangali Beach)

Postman humor, but this apparently is for real!
(At Gamcheon Culture Village)

Best name ever for a shop selling chocolates and candy.
(At Gwangbokro Culture and Fashion Street)

I absolutely agree!
(The chain offers the best shrimp burgers we’ve had this trip!)

These guys mean business!

Translation: stop asking us.🤣

These fries will even do the Gangnam style.

Engrish. And between mosquitoes or snakes, I’ll take mosquitoes TYVM.

Since…?

And also, it’s just considered good manners.

Perfection.
