I spent 6 months in Seoul, but it's a big city and my Korean is bad, but from google maps it looks like the theater is near the Gangmam area(yes, as in gangman style, the rich part of the city). Thanks, now I am all hungry for Korean food.

I'm a novice at Korean food. The only thing I know I have had is BiBim Bap. But each time it's been different. So I really don't know what to expect.

What do you suggest? Has to be something I can find here that would be largely representative of what I would find there.

I always liked bulgogi, it was my go to favorite, yaki mandu- it's like pot stickers. I liked cucumber kimchi. A lot of rice, gimbap (sushi type roll), and a lot of sea food. Just stay away from soju.

I was in Korea for 16 months in 1960-61, mostly in Seoul. The Seoul I enjoyed no longer exists in this Pacific-Rim Tiger. I miss Korean tearooms the most.

NTS became the Hammer of plays, no chances to see a different stage adaptation other than the Jack Thorne's :think:

I don't know how the theatre business is, but I guess they have the rights for stage play, while (i don't know who, Hammer? that guy Carl Molinder?) has the screen rights, and I suppose JAL (or his publisher) has the book rights now? right?
Well actually screen/tv producers borrow the book's rights for adaptations, and the last one was the failed tv intent by some american production company.
