On a lively Thursday night, five Yonsei
Global club members and three exchange students had a delicious dinner at ‘쭈꾸미
블루스(Jjukkumi Blues)’ in Sinchon. We gathered at the front gate
of Yonsei University at 6:10pm and headed for the restaurant near Sinchon
Station. It took us about 10 minutes by walk to get there.
The interior of the restaurant was Korean
retro style, so it felt like we were in the 1970s. We ordered cheese fondue
set, which had jjukkumi(webfoot octopus), samgyeopsal(pork belly), cheese, and
steamed eggs. The jjukkumi itself was a bit spicy but it did not feel that
spicy because there were various side menus to eat with it. During dinner, club
members and exchange students talked about Korean culture, university life, and
so on.
Then, we went to a board game café. We had
drinks as a dessert and we played several board games together. We played Clue,
Cockroach Poker, and Indian Poker. Although the manuals were all written in
Korean, Yonsei Global club members translated the rules to the exchange
students so we didn’t have any trouble playing the games together. We all had
so much fun there.

Christmas carols ringing on the streets in Korea, 3 YG members and 3 exchange
students visited Namsan Tower located in Yongsan-gu, Seoul. Since it was a time

is Namsan Seoul Tower, which Koreans usually call Namsan Tower....
