   Pish, most of us are carrying around plenty of bacteria. It’s probably not doing her any damage . . . at least in terms of germs. In fact, it was probably quite refreshing to put bare skin on cool stone.

   Wow. Great shot. The bare bum adds a bit of sexiness to it.

   God I hate them. jk

   Cute couple, but yea her @$$ on the steps is just gross.

   There could be so many things on that concret (spit, urine, bird waste, dog and cat waste, and other things I just don’t want to think about).

   Well, rubbing her bajingo all over the steps isn’t gonna give her any more germs than sitting on the bus, train, or one of the lovely bathrooms in Korea replete with rubbish bin.

   What is shocking though, is how badly they are dressed.

   Let’s remember that this couple was kind enough to offer their permission to post this picture, which is hard enough to get in Seoul — so if there are any real complaints please aim them at me.

   I liked the couple and the moment — I chose them for the photographic aspect of the shot, not necessarily because they were fashionistas. Let’s just try to remember that before this discussion goes too much further in the direction of bagging on them. Pretty please? I’d feel bad for asking them if they ended up regretting submitting their picture, know what I mean?

   This photo is so sweet. I felt a little warm seeing this photo. Such a simple yet endearing. Who cares about the bare bum and the germs- heck I’d stick my face unto that pavement if I were sweating under the summer moonlight… =p This site is beyond cool. Please keep ‘em coming

    noted – i get a bit glass half empty about Korean fashion sometimes. Well, all the time.

    On a different note, when are you gonna bring us Woo Young Mi, international superstar?

    It’s nice to see a couple not afraid to get photographed, knowing how Koreans are, and they both have some rockin’ musclar calves <3 I approve.

    Aww….so CUTE. The romantic within me lives on XD I must have no fashion sense but I honestly don’t think they aren’t dressed badly at all. Just very casually which is a refreshing change from the usual high-fashionista looks FMS usually focuses on. Given, most girls in the US wouldn’t go near a red striped skirt but hey – that’s a difference in societal (and fashion) style. As for the purple shirt, I like guys who aren’t afraid to wear color – as if wearing bright colors makes you “gay.” (And ironic term considering gays are among the best dressed and most fashionable people I know.)
