Greetings From Korea

Greetings From Korea

A Poem by 송지석 / Ji-Suk


'Hanguk', this is Korea
Gangnam Style is the best one in Asia
This is my language, Hanguel
It's a small, but a kickass country

We have the fastest internet 
Your TV is one of our best products
Even the TV you’re watching is a best seller
Drive down autobahn on a Korean car
Fly all over the world from Incheon Airport


Hello, Ni Hao, Konnichiwa
It’s nice to meet you
Salam, Bonjour, Guten Tag
If you hear about us, what’s up, Annyeong 

Northern latitude 37 eastern longitude 126
Korean K-Pop has the world's eyes on us 
Korean k-pop united the whole world
Over the Ariang hill bloom Roses of Sharon
Ready, steady, fight Taekwondo 

Kimchi, ddeokgalbi, bulgogi
Delicious samgyeobsal It’s so tasty
Kimbap, ddeokbeokki, bibimbap
Delicious samgyetang It’s so tasty

We are here waving the Korean flag
Go Korea, cheers for the country
If it’s not “mo” it’s “do” like yutnori
It's all or nothing, like the game of 'yut'
You know we bring the heat

A wonderful introduction!
I am a huge fan of Korean dramas and music.... I would love to visit Korea someday! But for now I guess all I can do is to read your poem again and again:)

Wonderful intro to your beautiful country!! The only dish I recognised is kimchi...isn't it made of cabbage and marinating spices?! Am just taking a guess!
All the picturesque view of Korea just allures visitors or the one who's addicted to travelling....thanks for the wonderful images...from flowers to clothes pattern or sequences everything looks wow and wow!!
It'd be great if every writer gives an intro of their beautiful countries...would love to read!!

Power of images with words can be always powerful. I use them too. I like you chose speak in positive terms of your land. Each subject have nice framing , its very elequant. I was visit your country 10 years ago. I still remeber quiet rich night liffe on the streets, so many delicious food and beautiful Budhistic temples. Also nature was very beautiful. I can just wish for your country no more wories and if is possible reunion inn dempcratic process. all the best.

Nice! It’s yummy, right? I like seaweed soup too. It’s fishy tasting but great!
This is a great introduction to your country! I have to tell you the truth, there are only two things that come to my mind when I think “Korea” – it’s the recent Olympics & also the nuclear standoff with the north. It’s refreshing to get many good details about your country & NONE of them are related to what is on the news here! It’s great when people share the essence of their culture here in writing becuz it gives us a better idea of what’s REALLY going on. I find that the details you share paint a story of being proud of your country & you should be. We here in the USA believe that South Korea is doing the most, as far as bringing peace to this situation in the north. I found it most interesting that you share some words from your language & some of your food dishes. Thanks for sharing (((HUGS))) Fondly, Margie
