Jorge and Kathe got married!

Once upon a time, there was a boy Jorge who met beautiful girl Kathe and they fell in love (well, first he didn't notice her at all, but after studying at university in Italy, then coming back to Ecuador, he finally noticed her). So they fell in love and started to date. One day they decided to apply for a scholarship in a far away country called Korea. It may seem as an coincidence that both of them got accepted the same year and for the same degree university, but we all know that this was destiny. Unfortunately, they had to be seperated for theeir first year in Korea, because Jorge went to Daegu (more like Gyeongsan) and Kathe went to the most beautiful city in Korea (according to Dani) Gwangju. They survived not only this separation, but also the horrible coronavirus pandemic which took place in the year 2020.

                      
In Daegu Jorge met his amazing Latino family and he became our older brother, 오라버니. He is always here for us, he listens to our crazy stories, he gives us advice about boys and together at night we meditate about the meaning of life while drinking delicous soju or beer. He is also one of the best soccer and basketball players I have ever met.
So one fine day, this guy told us: "Guys, me and Kathe decided to get married and we want to invite you to our wedding. Next week in Seoul." Obviously, we didn't have any other choice, so we packed our few things and we traveled to Seoul. It was a long journey (for some even longer than expected), but we finally made it.

During the ceremony

At 11 o'clock on 4th August 2020 we were all ready at the Embassy of Ecuador in Seoul. It should be said that the officials were not quite ready. They told to Jorge and Kathe that there's some problem with the system and that they can't proceed with the wedding. But Jorge and Kathe stayed strong together and we all waited with them until the stupid system was defeated and the papers for wedding could be printed.

And then the ceremony started. It was lovely, some people cried, some people laughed and the groom and bride shared a loving kiss. The newlyweds also talked for some time with their families and than we all left. But this is not the end of our story.


Happy married couple 👦👰

We all met once again in one restaurant for a dinner. Even though there weren't many of us, the celebration was like a storm. We ate and drank as much as we could and also we danced until the white morning. Well, not really. It was Tuesday, so the restaurant was closing quite early. But we still had a blast! 😎 I mean, nothing bad can happen when you put together a group of Latino, Italian and Czech people together. Truly, it was a night to remember.


In the end, there is nothing left but to wish the newlyweds all the best. We love you Jorge and Kathe! May they live happily ever after. 💑

Finding an apartment in Daejeon

I have many stories about which I want to write here, be patient. 😁 A lot happened during this winter break. I have been hiking and skiing a few times, I met many new and amazing friends, so even though I couldn't go for Christmas to Czech (especially to see my cute niece Zuzka 😔), I am happy here in Daejeon 😊 I don't really have any interesting photos of our apartment, so I'm sharing some photos from hiking with Oketch, which I haven't shared before.😅 Photo was taken by Oketch, autumn 2020, Daedunsan. But a few weeks ago, I have moved from the dormitory to an apartment with my Indonesian friend Ici. So, I think now it's time to tell you how we found our new apartment. As most of the people I know, we were also using 직방 and 다방 (mobile apps where you can easily look for an apartment). We have started to look for an apartment around the middle of December, knowing that we have to move out in the middle of February. We have seen some dirty and old apartments and al...

Getting vaccinated in Korea - 잔여백신 macro

As some of you may know, you can get vaccinated with "Remaining vaccine" (잔여백신) and Kakaotalk or Naver can send you a notification to get this free vaccine. I have been getting notifications for the last few weeks, but I didn't succeed to get this free vaccine, probably because I was always too slow to claim it. But we are in Korea, the country of the newest technologies, so obviously someone wrote a macro for this. 😁 And show some love to my friend Mahdi who helped me to debug this code and gave me all the information I needed for writing this article! He also provided the English version of the macro. Basically, you set up your conditions and let the program search for these remaining vaccines and if it finds one, it will automatically register you for it. IMPORTANT: Don't run the program if you don't have time to get vaccinated on the same day! 1. Open Chrome browser. 2.  Log in to your Kakaotalk account.  Stay Logged In should be ticked. 3. You will see a map...

Proč Korea? A co tu vlastně dělám?

안녕하세요? [annjŏnghasejo] Dobrý den! Chtěli jste vědět jak se mám v Jižní Koreji? Úplně skvěle. Strašně se mi tu líbí a užívám si to tady. A proč tu vlastně jsem? To se musíme vrátit do minulosti. Tenhle článek tedy bude hlavně o tom, jak jsem se sem dostala a co tu dělám. Když jsem byla na studiích v Tomsku, kde jsem mimochodem začala psát tento blog, tak jsem poprvé ve svém životě začala uvažovat o doktorském studiu. Na TPU v Tomsku jsem se toho od svých profesorů naučila strašně moc a přitom nejde o kdovíjak známou/slavnou školu. Změna prostředí je občas strašně důležitá a také jsem věděla, že to čemu bych se na PhD chtěla věnovat se v České Republice úplně nedělá. Jako první jsem měla v merku Ameriku, jak jinak. Jenže americká kultura mi nic moc neříká. Ale... Kpop, kdrama, jídlo atd. ...pak mě moje sestra uvrhla do světu korejských seriálu (kdrama), odtud nebylo daleko ke korejskému popu (kpop) a to už byl jen malinký kousek ke korejskému jídlu a korejské kultuře obecně. ...
