No, not that political shift that swept Lee Myungbak into office after five years of leftist mismanagement under Roh Moohyun (yeah, I'll get a dig in wherever I can). I'm talking about the change from walk-on-the-left policies supposedly stemming from the Japanese occupation era to a walk-on-the-right that reflects the US-imposed driving culture of the post-liberation era.
Maybe now Koreans will stop bumping into foreigners.
hey man... leftism is cool but koreans do it wrong. i always thought it was weird how whenever i'd cross the international dateline i'd suddenly be one day ahead and radically conservative
ReplyDeleteYeah, for all Korea's supposed leftism, it's actually a pretty conservative place.
ReplyDeleteI just don't want it to become ideologically conservative. I can get behind some pragmatic conservatism when necessary, being the moderate Democrat that I am.
Oh, I just noticed that this looks like Seoul Station, my 'hood.
