********************
More movie tickets were sold in Korea than in Japan last year even though Japan has 2.5 times the population of Korea. I asked my Korean teacher why so many people go to the movies, and she said that the movie tickets there are much cheaper and the movie theaters are open longer. Then she asked me about the U.S. She wanted to know if Americans ate and drank anything else besides popcorn and soft drinks. I told her that a lot of people eat candy, too. She said that Korea was different. Many Koreans eat dried squid at the movie theaters. (by Prof. Douglas Jarrell)
