Commentary: Pen Pals
Commentator Ayun Halladay collects fractured English phrases that come from Korea. She loves their ambiguous messages, such as "tell me your memory children have obedient mind all the time and make us have a gentle feeling." She wishes she were in high school again so she could use this sort of language in her "senior saying" under her yearbook picture.
