Reality Check: Seoul

image

(Today) While riding the subway across the Hangang bridge, I looked out the window and saw the view of Seoul. The lights lit up, the hustle & bustle, and the Koreans sifting through their smartphones beside me. 

I had a 30 second reality check- which was basically these words repeating through my mind (over & over again): “Whoah… I’m in Seoul.

Its been around 7 weeks living in Seoul, and it feels so strange. I feel like I’ve never left Korea. I feel like, this is home — but at the same time its not. I feel like my life is so weird at times, spending my life in different locations at different times. Weird. 

Overall, I’m so glad I’m here. From everything that’s been happening in these past 7 weeks, my only response is utter gratitude. Thank you Lord. A longer “Korea” update to come…

Getting one of my favorite foods in Korea (찜닭) with Emmaus students after our Large Group. The word from Pastor Myunghwa was soooo powerful today. Man the Gospel was preached with such power, revelation, and love! #emmaus #sinchon #goodnight (at 안동 찜닭)

From 1960 to Today. The rate of development of the city of Seoul is incredible! I feel like a new shop/restaurant opens every couple months!
