I made it. It was a pretty easy flight and Korean Air actually has some really spacious planes so it worked out well for me. After I found my driver we drove about an hour or so with traffic to my temporary apartment. The best way to describe it would be barren, I have a small mattress on the floor and a desk. Not much else to it but it takes care of my needs for now. Once I move in to my permanent apartment I will try and make it alittle more homey.
After spending a few minutes of unpacking I heard a knock on my door, not any knock but a loud one like someone was pissed off. I was hesitant to answer the door but I thought maybe its someone from my school or the landlord or something so I waited and they knocked again even louder. Of course I answered it this time and in front of my door is a Korean guy screaming at me about how I had been sleeping with his girlfriend. I was so taken back that the only thing I could muster out was "hey man, what's up?" He burst into laughter and my friend Dylan popped his head around the corner. Dylan who was a friend of mine at ASU has been here teaching for about a year now and used his Korean connections to try and freak me out within my first hour but I was so out of it I didn't even process that this guy was trying to scare me. What a friend he is.
I will update more about my first week later on but for now I'm having to use internet at a cafe close to my apartment.
