North Korean or South Korean? Surely after a half century of disseverance they can no longer be quite the same. (What is the South Korean for "dear leader"?)
ReplyDeleteIn fact, when I typed "Economics for Real People" into Google translate, what came out did not look much like the characters on the front of the book.
DeleteMy suspicion: the book is actually called "Gene Callahan's tour of the gay bathhouses of Seoul," or something of the sort.
Hey, at least it doesn't have you going to "Boystown". That would be awkward ...
