Anyone who has lived in Korea in the past two years or so should probably know exactly what store and which song this comic is referencing. For those of you that don’t, click here and enjoy. Be warned. It’s terribly catchy.
While hearing this song for the entirety of my shopping trips was a little strange at first, I eventually grew to love it and even started looking forward to it. What can I say? It puts me in a great mood for no real reason. I’m pretty sure I’m not the only person who feels this way. I just know a number of friends and I were a little heartbroken when they changed the song over the past few years to something more generic and pop-friendly.
I suddenly want to go shopping for groceries I don’t need now.
Also, this strip is dedicated to my dear friend Diana, as she’s the wonderful person who helped me truly appreciate the song by showing me where it originally came from. It also happens to be one of the weirdest things I’ve ever seen.
