@JapanCons_vanc @UFVLibrary @ReadJapan_TNF Thank you Deputy Consul General Okagaki and everyone involved from the @JapanCons_vanc. It was UFV's pleasure to host you and we look forward to the next time.

@10wontips The urban myth/conspiracy theory I’ve heard is that government officials feared being tracked by spouses. But that doesn’t pass muster because don’t all government officials use Samsung phones?

[Walter Foreman @Walter_Foreman]

@koryodynasty The thorough report is appreciated. One thing in particular caught my eye: "...paying sellers 1-2 months after receiving consumer payments." Isn't that the very definition of a Ponzi scheme?

@themarkrussell Yongsan I-Park?

There are more convenience stores in Korea (55,000) than McDonald’s restaurants in the world (42,000). https://t.co/z7zK9gka00

A project with which I was involved and that I'm glad to have seen come to fruition.

[Consulate General of Japan in Vancouver @JapanCons_vanc]

📚The #ReadJapanProject (@japan_read) has provided the University of the Fraser Valley (@goUFV) with 27 books on a wide range of Japan-related topics. We hope the students & faculty will enjoy these books and find them useful in their studies! Learn more: https://t.co/imEqQpydLe

@vincenzolandino And, IIRC, the car caught fire in the pits after the race.

[Walter Foreman @Walter_Foreman]

@themarkrussell And the growth in that sector is equally impressive. In 2016, Korea had “only” 33,500 convenience stores.

@10wontips As is Dua Lipa…

CJ CheilJedang, one of Korea’s biggest food manufacturers, is starting Kimchi production in Australia under its brand Bibigo. CJ will be selling Aussie-made Kimchi alongside Kimchi exported from Korea. https://t.co/fTiv5BPprd

[Walter Foreman @Walter_Foreman]

@koreanforeigner Sparks? Isn’t that fire already raging?

[Walter Foreman @Walter_Foreman]

@10wontips Proud to say that was the work of a close personal friend!

Korea's third-generation highspeed train, the KTX-Cheongryong (청룡) is said to have a top speed of 320 kph (199 mph) and to carry 35% more passengers, but boy-oh-boy, it's a long way away from pretty. In fact, it borders on fugly.

@YonhapNews Interestingly, Choi’s trophy lacks even a single word in Korean.

[Walter Foreman @Walter_Foreman]

There’s a new home run king in Korea’s professional baseball league. #야구

@YonhapNews Great article w lots of background and context. IIRC, Lee hit his record-breaking homer in Daegu, did he not?
