My First Winter in Korea: Video

My First Winter in Korea: Video   It's worth mentioning that I'm from Florida. So to be fair this is really the first winter of my entire life. I imagine that the freezing weather and snow get old after a few years but I have to say that I'm surprised how much I enjoyed the…
