About this listen
This is the true story of a young dancer, whose naïve dream of working in the Far East turns into a nightmare.
She finds herself in a plethora of situations, which she is ill-equipped to deal with. Dancing her way across South Korea with two friends, she is propositioned by the Mafia, turned away by the British Embassy, caught in a student riot, and taken to Korean brothels.
At times both shocking and humorous, this is the story of a timid young girl finding her voice and learning to stand up for herself in a male-orientated world of alcohol, sex, and seedy nightclubs.
©2019 Michele E. Northwood (P)2021 Michele E. NorthwoodFollow their crazy madcap adventures: the motorbike episode, strip bars, dancing disco spots, unsalubrious dives, food, (and the desire to eat!) kim chi, hooker hill, and details of the national drink - soju (which is lethal.)
The poor dancers experiences are absolutely horrendous with death threats, misognistic behaviour, danger, rats (furry and not.) The hysterical male performer and his furry g string will remain in my mind forever as will Sharon's insatiable appetite for men, Mr. Lee's 'no work,' the Korean's love letter to Michelle and the threat of starvatian to boot!
And poor Louise and Sharon's extra curvy figures being referred to in derogatory terms as the: 'Travelling elephant Show.'
I listened on audiobook and thoroughly enjoyed.
