Traditional bar

Wednesday started out pretty bad with me already having spent tuesday on trying to debug some code without success. So I decided to do whatever it takes to make it work - and it actually did. There are still some things to be looked at, but all in all everything was fine just in time for a slightly later dinner than usual. To make a good ending even better the dinner was sponsored by a former graduate of the group now working at Samsung and took place in the nicest dining hall on the top level. Afterwards one of the theoreticians showed us a beautiful balcony near our office, we had never been to before and decided to take us out to drinking. Of course, we could not say no to that. And this was a really good thing, because he took us to a truly traditional bar, whose entrance would have kept any normal traveller incaable of reading Korean out. See for yourself - it did not look like a bar entrance to me. Inside the rather large building, little wooden huts were built on two stories, low wooden tables, seating on the floor on comfortable cushions, extremely good Korean food, rice wine, bamboo grog and more. All in all a very wonderful evening after a very work-intensive day.
