That Time Of The Month

It's the end of the month: the time when my students buy me lots of Starbucks, food, and, in the evening, booze. Two of my students this month, husband and wife, invited me and my fellow expats to dine with them and their son this Sunday. The husband is a plastic surgeon with his own practice in 압구정 (Apgujeong)--far and away the most affluent area of Seoul, even moreso than the already-affluent 강남 (Gangnam), which is where I live and work. The wife has a high-powered job that requires her to travel to Japan several times a month. They live in a house in 강남. I think it's safe to say that Sunday's dinner will be good. I'm hoping for 갈비 (galbi) or 삼겹살 (samgyupsal).
