Asia Invasion: Everyday is Thursday at Busans

On the way we picked up a bottle of Maggoli to keel us over until we could find a good spot. Maggoli is a very popular rice pulp wine , it's milky and you see it everywhere. We started the night at a Bier Garten of all places where we witnessed an altercation with a Korean girl and a group of her friends. She was yelling hysterically for a good bit until the cops eventually showed up. We had no clue what happened and proceeded to go about our night.

The eel we consumed earlier that night pretty disappeared in our stomachs and we found ourselves hungry again. The need for a drunken meal that would hold us over for the restaurant had us visiting the kernel of poultry himself. They are quite abundant in Korea and scattered everywhere assuming the city is big enough. What makes them even more dangerous is that they're open 24 hours a day so there's no escaping its' potential pull (fortunately for me I have a preference for the Korean street food that lines the streets at night).

With out stomachs full of chicken and some horrible processed meat that I will never try again; we wandered around following the light and the noise. As it got brighter and louder and found ourselves in front of a bar called Thursdays. After taking a peek inside we saw something somewhat rare depending on where you've been in Korea. We saw an eclectic mix of foreigners and Koreans and it did not seem subtly segregated at all. The music was good and the crowd looked appealing so we stepped inside and started with some Jager shots (the shots were super cheap compared to most spots).

We made friends with a Korean couple that was sitting at the bar and a group of Koreans that were sitting next to us at our table. Needless to say they made for an interesting night filled with cultural conversations and a highly skewed game of darts.
