Eating dog with his Sunday morning football team ... Taking a naked sauna with 50 Korean men ... Staring across the DMZ to North Korea ... Looking at Chairman Mao's embalmed corpse ... Drinking rice wine and setting off firecrackers during Chinese New Year ... Teaching classes of 50 Chinese kids ... Dealing with horrific pollution ... Enjoying a disco in Inner Mongolia ... Experiencing the epic scale of growth in China ... Becoming the marketing face of a Chinese beer company. All of these are adventures detailed in Paul Bacon's second book. It covers the five year period he spent teaching and living in Korea (for one year) and in China (for four years) between 2004 and 2010. Part comic adventure, part travelogue, part history book, part food tour and part memoir. Waegook Laowai gives insight into two fascinating Asian countries.
