H...Well, the hope is that they reverse this trend. However, the challenge is to stop slapping a bandaid on the problem and try for real change.<BR/><BR/>Maybe with the upcoming change in the presidency something might happen. I might get slammed for saying it, but the conservatives in Korea can get economic programs going. <BR/><BR/>Plus, I like them 'cause they have a realist view of Korean politics and international politics. That's much different from the Right in the USA :(Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-71839198762883924292007-10-25T10:30:00.000-04:002007-10-25T10:30:00.000-04:00Expat Jane another great blog. As I've stated befo...Expat Jane another great blog. As I've stated before it doesnt make sense to be technologically advanced yet culturally stagnant as in the case of South Korea.<BR/>I was reading some of the links you posted and the one Korea is Still in the Dark on Globalization caught my eye as the author was stating he was the only one at the G8 summit there were no other KOreans in sight and that Koreans really don't have an understanding of globalization.<BR/>I know Koreans don't like to hear that but it's the truth. I mean Singapore is booming and one can't deny that fact. I will check out the rest of your blogs and comment on them. Keep up the great work, hopefully by this time next year Korea wont tumble any further.small41https://www.blogger.com/profile/04219876053474725472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-84506355356227755912007-10-24T03:56:00.000-04:002007-10-24T03:56:00.000-04:00Thanks.

Usually folks just email me (email is down in the links on the right.)<BR/><BR/>However, I can publish the shop's info on the net, so why not?<BR/><BR/>A good shop for black hair care in Seoul is Family Hair Shop. I would go there to get my hair put into microbraids or cornrows. However, now that I wear my hair natural, I don't go except for manicures and pedicures. They provide other hair services as well.<BR/><BR/>They learned their skills providing hair services on base and they're licensed and trained. They just got smart and decided to open their own shop.<BR/><BR/>They're in the Itaewon area of Seoul near Noksapyeong Station, Exit 2. You have to cross the street heading to the archway. Walk for about 3 to 4 minutes and you'll see a McDonalds on the other side of the road and the start of a narrow road heading uphill. Family Hair Shop is across from the McDonalds at the start of that narrow road they're next to an exchange bureau and touristy shoe and boot shop.<BR/><BR/>You can call them at 02-796-3538.Reginahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09024832959937205245noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30544984.post-21184376611368762272007-10-24T03:13:00.000-04:002007-10-24T03:13:00.000-04:00I am so excited to see other Black women in south ...I am so excited to see other Black women in south korea. I also started a blog 11Down9toGo (blogger) but it is not nearly as good as yours, mine is really is basic. I just wanted to show some love and ask, Where can a sista get her hair done? I have micros and I would like to get them redone. ThanksMei-Lihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10275529450982692676noreply@blogger.com
