(입트영) Samgyeopsal Day
Talk about Samgyeopsal Day
When I was in the military, I took my American roommate out to dinner at a samgyeopsal place once. I remember the look on his face when two chunks of pork belly were placed on the grill. He goes, “Why are we having bacon for dinner?” I told him that even though it did look like bacon, it wasn’t called bacon in Korea. It was called samgyeopsal, there-layer pork belly. He became a big fan of samgyeopsal and soju ever since. Speaking of samgyeopsal, March 3rd was Samgyeopsal Day. Why? Because the number 3 in Korean is “sam” and samgyeopsal has three layers of meat. Why not enjoy your samgyeopsal today? Happy belated Samgyeopsal day!

Why don’t you take her out for coffee?
I can never forget the look on her face
The look on his face was priceless
He goes, “Why are we having bacon for dinner?”
She asks, “Why?” and he goes, “I have no idea!”
And I go, “I don’t want to see you anymore”
I haven’t talked to her ever since
He has been living alone ever since his wife passed away
Speaking of TV shows, my favorite show is “Modern Family”
Speaking of which, don’t forget to bring your camera
Happy belated birthday
She sent me a belated birthday card
He received belated recognition for his heroism
