Konglish is the taking of English words and absorbing them into the Korean language in a straighforward or unexpected fashion that leads to often zany results. I know you’ve seen it on Billboards, Store signs, Menus, Tshirts, and probably a dozen other places.

The prize will be a Surprise Gift Certificate! But you have to be in Korea to claim the prize since I’m not too keen on mailing anything to some far off distant land. Plus it will most definitely be a Korean store.
We’re looking for something hysterical, original, roll on the floor gut busting funny or at least quirky. Got it? Go get ‘em!
