Listening to K-pop on the lifts of Sungwoo Resort!

 

    About 1 minute up the lift, my fingers started tapping against the cold metal bar of the safety bar. My snowboard was swaying over fresh powder to the beat, and my lips starting humming the sound of "Can't Nobody" by the famous K-pop band 2NE1. Yes, to my astonishment there was K-pop music blasting on the lifts at Hyundai Sungwoo Resort!

    My friends and I couldn't help but laugh in astonishment, as this was the first time we had ever experienced pop music while cruising up the mountain to hit our first run. Everyone on the mountain was dancing to the beat, and the music was a great way to enjoy the day while snowboarding in perfect conditions.
    Never in my life have I experienced such organized chaos on the slopes. People had no idea what they were doing, and the lifts go so slow that you don't even have to strap into your snowboard or skiis. People were casually walking off the lift, a sight that one would never see in American or European ski resorts. And all along the journey, everyone is jamming to the latest hits like The Black Eyed Peas "The Time (Dirty Bit)"
