Saturday was a rainy day, so a perfect movie going/mall rat day. Ashley and went to COEX, had lunch and then saw the Brothers Bloom, which was a fantastic movie. The basic plot line is that Mark Ruffalo and Adrien Brody are brothers (the Bloom Brothers) and they run various cons and scams. The final con is supposed to target a rich young woman (Rachel Weisz), but Brody falls in love with her. I recommend the movie to anyone who likes cons/adventure/really great actors and fabulous costuming.
On Sunday, after lunch at an American style diner and a trip to the "black market" for some cold meds, we decided to head to Hongdae. Hongdae is generally a place where we head for a night out and it was incredibly strange seeing it in the light of day. Ashley had been to Bau House before and Dani and I really wanted to check it out as well. The basic concept is a cafe where people can bring their dogs (and the cafe also has 15 or so dogs) and socialize them, spend time with them while enjoying a drink from the cafe. We had to wait a bit for a table, but we were still able to pet some of the dogs. Once we got a table (complete with a sleeping dog) dogs started coming near us, jumping in our laps and generally loving us. This faded after awhile because we didn't have treats, but two very kind Korean girls let us hold their dogs! They were trying to socialize the dogs and we spent about 40 minutes with their two, tiny, freshly groomed, white dogs. They were freaking adorable and they loved us as much as we all loved the experience (and the dogs!).
