During the summer, my friends visited Korea. They are Argentinians and Mexicans living in China. They stayed in Korea for five days. During this time, we visited Gangnam and ate Korean food. We ate dakgalbi, Korean food made from spicy chicken ribs, it was delicious. We ate it at a restaurant in Myungdong in central Seoul. In general, some Korean restaurants have candy at the counter. When South Korean candy is compared to Chinese candy, it is less tangy but more sweet. I asked my friends if they wanted candy after we ate dinner. At first they were hesitant to eat the candy because they thought it was a sugar cube. I told them that it just looked like it, actually it was candy.
During the summer, I did a lot of shopping by myself. I read magazines and found out that Bucany Red lipstick looked good to purchase! And so, I went to a department store and learned that the lipstick was a limited edition and that it had Lee Hanna's autograph on it. So I am really lucky that I was able to purchase that item. Additionally, I bought a dress, some accessories, and shoes.
Finally, my dog Gomi, a toy poodle, carried four puppies. I will take them for walks during the summer.
