Gomez has decided, after watching the World Baseball Classic, that South Korea is the new Cuba and Japan is the new Dominican Republic. (Japan and So. Korea are playing in the finals this year, in case you live under a rock.)
South Korea is knows as the "land of the morning calm," whereas Cuba is known (to Gomez) as the land of calm mourning. South Korea has an excellent high-tech infrastructure, whereas Cuba...uhm...doesn't really have an infrastructure other than old cars and masking tape. South Korea has a fully functioning modern democracy. Enough said.
Meanwhile, Japan has a strong work ethic that drives men to suicide, and the DR has no such problems plus Presidente beer. Japan has karaoke, the DR has bachata. Gomez is not sure which is worse.
Gomez loves baseball, and has heard that the Koreans have many dishes that are helpful for a hangover. This is more valuable to Gomez than you might realize.
