Nothing says 'we hate Japan' and 'We are Korea!' better than Hello Kitty, because while you may be able to greet her, like a good, well-behaved girl, she doesn't talk back. You know, I'd expect a cafe like this around Ehwa, someplace in Hongdae, or even in Myeongdong, but I was quite shocked when I stumbled upon it in Shinchon. It makes me chuckle because you can eat some pasta at CM's Box, get hammered at Osama's Bar, and then sober up at the Hello Kitty Cafe, all within a 2 minute walk from each other. I wanted to go inside, but the guy I was with was a little less enthusiastic about the whole thing. But you know guys and dolls, let me leave you with something creepy yet awesome. Every time I think of Hello Kitty, I imagine a creepy, pervy British guy (sorry Nick) in a voice fit for an old man trying to get some saying 'Hello, Kitty'.
