I ate at a club restaurant outside and chicken from a food truck. The best part was the free concert. With my friend from Spain, I saw a famous Korean artist named Jannabi. The quality is a little bad because I was far away but the music was a blast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2pWQo99\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53785428848_72d044b14f_n.jpg\" alt=\"Picture4\" width=\"212\" height=\"284\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>The best day was visiting a neighboring school an hour away to see PSY at an outside venue at Yeungnam University. It was worth the hour ride to see him. I never thought I would see the guy who sang Gangnam Style live in my lifetime but I did! It was great to dance with the Korean people to the music. Also, PSY is a great dancer. Him and his backup dancers are really good! I\u2019m still having a good time in South Korea so far.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-photo is-provider-flickr wp-block-embed-flickr\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<a href=\"https:\/\/flic.kr\/p\/2pWQo94\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/live.staticflickr.com\/65535\/53785428843_d9ab9e61c4_n.jpg\" alt=\"Picture5\" width=\"240\" height=\"320\" \/><\/a>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\" \/>\n\n\n\n<p>Learn more about this blogger\u2019s study abroad program: <a href=\"https:\/\/mystudyabroad.missouri.edu\/_portal\/tds-program-brochure?programid=11388\">Kyungpook National University<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In May, I did some cool things in Korea.
