My Adventure in South Korea
Every soldier who has served in South Korea above the “No Smile Line” or the area north of the Korean town of Uijeongbu-si where the U.S. Army’s 2nd Infantry Division used to be located had an Ajumma and feared Slicky Boy. Ajumma is the Korean word for married women; however, it was used to reference Korean women who made delicious food for soldiers out training in the field. Slicky Boy was the invisible, mysterious person who would sneak in and steal soldier’s equipment. These two Korean characters were a part of my adventure in South Korea as they were for thousands of soldiers like me.
