IN Korea this wouldn't work. It'd be "I'll be over for some in a jiffy".
Posted by: Simon at June 28, 2004 02:31 AMI don't know where people get the notion that eating dog is a particularly Korean practice. I have Chinese dog recipes, Hawai'in dog recipes, and a Swiss dog recipe, and a general description of biker dog barbecue, but no Korean dog recipes.
