"Infinitely yours"

I'm really frustrated right now, as I've been trying for ten minutes to embed a video from Youtube, which Blogger apparently doesn't let us do anymore.

But please go here:

(Then come back here. I get lonely.)

This video, featuring Korean superstars Super Junior and Girls Generation, encapsulates "Infinitely yours" Seoul in four quick minutes, complete with captions in hangeul text, its Romanization, and English translation: "Sometimes inside my tiring routine my body is won over by exhaustion", indeed.

It's got K-pop (better than most), pretty young people (the boys only slightly prettier than the girls), scenery including the Han River and Seoul Tower, smog (better than usual), imperfect English grammar (better than standard), cutesy cheerfulness, and scary mascots with giant heads.

It *is* life in Seoul.
