so today, november 11th, is pepero day. it's a corporate holiday initiated by lotte. lotte owns a lot around these parts. so do samsung, doosan, KTF, daewoo, hyundai, LG, and SK. now i'm no economist but i wouldn't doubt these companies are responsible for 99% of south korea's gdp (the other 1% being bootleg dvd stands found in various subway stations).
anyway, pepero are these chocolate sticks much like pocky that you can get back home and if a boy fancies a girl or vice versa then they'll give them the pepero sticks. how cute in a capitalist sort of way. i got a few boxes from my elementary skool girls. cute indeed.
