뭐라구 하지? [maw-la-go-ha-ji]?

?…or, its shortened form, 뭐라구 [maw-la go]? It’s the equivalent of Pardon? Sorry? What did you say? This is a term all foreigners in Korea have heard. It’s usually accompanied by a confused look. All attempts at stopping a Korean to explain this phrase had failed…..until today.

The new school year has begun. I don’t think I will get around to finishing these up for a long time, so I’m calling these done for now.

I’m an American.

Misarang Imsil Cheese Pizza

I scared the young Korean on the other line. He wasn’t getting my order.  I reminded him that I’m just an American that wants a pizza. It almost worked.  He gained enough confidence to mock me, but not enough confidence to take my order. He quickly handed the phone over to a female employee. She got my order on one shot. I was so happy.  Well, almost happy. I was a little doubtful that I would actually receive the pizza at my door.  But, it came 20 minutes later. A success! My favorite food, ordered in Korean, and delivered to my door.  Now I feel like, singing in Korean!
