My simple pleasures
Glassy dawn surf at El Porto. Grandma's galbi-jjim from a voice memo. Being right about a war film's technical errors.
The way to win me over
Out-roast me. Rare, but it happens. I'll say 'fine. you win. noted for the record.'
Typical Sunday
Surf at six, baduk in the park by noon, lose to a man twice my age. Then rematch.
