By I have always subscribed to the theory that living in Korea is all about what you make of it. There are far more positives to living in Korea then negatives. The only problem is that the positives take more effort to appreciate then the negatives. Courtesy of Roboseyo he provides his own tips to loving the heck out of Korea so you can better appreciate those positives yourself:
I know, I know, everybody’s been wondering, “You seem like a cheery cat. So what makes a happy expat, Roboseyo?” well, fortunately, the guru is open for advice, with a bit of photo/video documentary evidence to back him up.
Fortunately for all concerned, it isn’t too hard, if you take the initiative to actually follow the instructions given by your wise old guruseyo. Soon, you’ll be as giddy as my former student, Jesse.

Since the Blog's owner has made a play on "Yoboseyo," I'll share a little story that my Marines cooked up during one deployment…
I take it that "Chengu" means friend…feel free to correct me, and Yobo means live in girlfriend, or some such.
Anyway, my Wildmen, passing off as Recon Marines, came up with a makeshift Korean word…"ChenguYobo…which they humorously referred to as "FriendBiatch," or commonly known as "My Biatch." They were some knuckleheads, but the best Marines I ever had…of course their panty collection soon lined the tents and was actually pretty admirable, until someone brought in "GrandMa's drawers."
If the girls of whatever the ville was called during Bear Hunt 1986, ever wondered where all of their panties wound up at, it was in the tents of 3rd Recon Bn.
We Trained Hard…and Played even Harder.
