Description ...whats this?! An actual background?? and on top of that its not fanart! aghhhhhhhhhhh

Um. Anyway, this is what the korean metro looks like...sort of. If you've ever ridden the Korean (or any) subway, can you identify the following people?

1) Girl on phone who talks loud
2) guy blasting music
3) Tired man
4) Man with newspaper
5-6) annoying couple
7) Student-acting-asleep-or-avoiding-eye-contact-so-he-doesn't-have-to-give-his-seat-up-for-the-old-guy


8) EVERYBODY STARE AT THE FOREIGNER

This matches perfect, but in my impression of the Seoul subway is a little bit different.

1. There are more people sleeping or dead tired. Specially in summer, it's like a mobile dormitory.
2. There are not that many annoying couples actually.
3. The people don't stare at the foreigners that much... Sometimes some old ones do, kids do it oftenly, young people are too shy to stare. But when I came first, I didn't get the feeling of people looking strange at me, I felt like they are habituated to see foreigners, but not that much yet to be completely indifferent either.

4. In the morning there are so many people that the door almost can't close.

Anyaw, I get your point.
Nice picture, made me smile.
