No, my name is not Harry Potter. Do not let the boyish charm (at the time of writing, I’m 22), oval-shaped glasses (they’re neither black framed nor circular), or brown hair (it’s shaved close, why do I keep getting these comparisons?) confuse you. I am Chris Snyder, a 2008 graduate of the College of Charleston and current teacher at a hagwon in Bundang, South Korea. My current location prevents me from being able to appear at your children’s birthday parties, no matter how much money you offer. This blog is a simultaneous effort to keep in contact with my friends and family in the United States and a means of maintaining contact with writing.
I read with interest, your kyokushin experience in Korea. I’ve been trying to locate a kyokushin dojo – for that matter, any karate dojo nearby where I am (Kunsan AB, Jeollabukdo province), but there are none. In Korea, the options seem limited: taekwondo, hapkido, kumdo, etc…
By chance, would you ask your colleagues there, if there are any karate options for me, nearby Gunsan? I’d appreciate any feedbacks. Thanks in advance.
Also, does your dojo have a website? I might like to stop by whenever I’m in the Bundang area. I have relatives there, so I usually drive up on the weekends.
