Koreans have rhythm

- So there I was, minding my own business trying to finish my third set of “butterflies” at Sydney Gym on the 6th floor of the building across the street from my apartment. Korean techno-rap was blaring throughout the gym (as usual) when I suddenly heard someone loudly clapping to the beat of the music. I searched the immediate area and finally found an old Korean man (at least 65 years old) hanging upside down by his ankles, looking like a wrinkled spandex wrapped fruit bat, on some Korean stress-relief contraption. He proceeded to clap (looking totally relaxed with his eyes closed) in rhythm to the beat throughout the duration of the 3-4 minute song. Nobody batted an eye. I stared in awe and disbelief with a grin on my face thinking to myself “life here is just a little different.”
