What the Book!

We're both English majors, so we love books. Love em! Unfortunately, it's not all too easy to find a good selection of English books here in Korea; the bookstores will have a few, but a big part of those few are the original books of popular Hollywood movies. If you want to read something with a little more depth, those bookstores may not be your first option. What you should be checking out instead is our new favorite bookshop, What the Book in Itaewon. It's a bookstore full of books written in English, used and new, as well as magazines. What's better is that they have a really useful website if Itaewon is too far for you, or you're just too lazy to go there. So, we've made a new video tour of What the Book, so that you won't have to be without good reading ever again! Click on the picture above or check it out in the sidebar.

Dear Team S&M.

Good work.

Nothing offensive in there at all.

I can't wait til you start getting hate mail for not liking Korean bookstores, though.

Oh, the price of celebrity.

Have a good one.

thanks!

do you happen to know anything about paying online/transferring money via atm to pay for your books?

i tried to pay online using my korean debit card [using a korean co-teacher to help me figure out which numbers go where] and it wouldn't work....it said i needed another number that i didn't have.

any ideas on what this might be?

[my korean co-teacher, though very helpful, didn't explain what exactly i needed from my bank very well. she briefly showed me some card of hers that i am supposed to have [similar to hers i guess???]...i was really confused. any help here?
