Korean Winter Blues

Korean Winter Blues


Korean Winter Blues

Korean winters 
Are shorter than before
Impact of climate change

Can get very cold
As Siberian winds
Blow in from Russia

Putting the whole country
Under a deep freeze
Polar vortex 

It does not snow
Too much
Except in the mountains 
The coldest day
I ever experienced
Was in Korea 
Back in 1979

The AFKN radio announcer
Said it was minus 70
That morning.
