Always falls for the DJ...

Look Mom: my drink matches my dress!
Cadena and I attempted another night out in Daegu this weekend. It went relatively well - if by well you mean we at least saw some other people out:) That's probably because we began our night at
 "regular time" here - about 11p.

We started out with vinnereoo, which is becoming something of a ritual. (Bag #2 pictured above - the first one actually matched better.)And look, they even have a version of my favorite drink (altho, of course, spelled differently!):

Then we hit MK Club (the M stands for Monkey, I don't recall what the K stands for:) ). Now, club atmosphere in Korea seems a bit different from in the States. At home, it's all about the bump n' grind; here it's more  like the stand-in-a -line-and-sway-back-n-forth. They mostly move their hips in a semicircular motion, although some do bust out of line and start totally grooving with legs, feet and arms. But everyone looks at the DJ the entire time, kind of watching him instead of looking at/dancing with each other. Yet another place to not meet people.        
Not that we didn't have fun. Cadena and I danced together, scoffing tradition and getting some crazy looks:) We even were gifted a few drinks, so it wasn't a total waste of time;) But in a room full of natives and drunk soldiers, I was most interested in the DJ...


And you can't imagine how many people are out and about, or how outrageously dirty everything is after midnight. Daugu is a completely different world after 11p. I don't know if we'll be seeing it that often, but I'm definitely up for it again some time!
