Neither my brother nor I speak a word of
Korean. Well, we managed to eventually get ‘thank you’ and had a phrasebook
that we utilized principally by waving it around ostentatiously in the hope
that someone nearby with some English ability would take pity on us and help
out. But by and large we fell back on the tried and tested Brit Abroad
methodology of waving, pointing, and talking in English VERY. LOUDLY. AND.
SLOWLY. When in Rome, eh?
