Description
More fish!Ingenious how it all works but I wonder if they drip at all? Probably not but the vendors were sitting under them... I really want to know how these would be used in cooking or whatever they may be used for. It seems like the skin is the key part here. I left with so many discoveries and even more questions!

They look like weird masks with eye holes cut out.
I'd guess they would chop up the fish make a fish stew.
I'd tink the bacteria would make you sick if you're not accustomed to that type of thing.

They do now that I think about it! oooh that would be fun to draw 
Bacteria (not the bad kind) was definitely an issue with the water there. It was natural and normal but when you are not from that area it can make you sick until you get used to it. My questions about the fish have doubled. I really want to know how it is prepared after it is bought from the market. You know what though? I saw no bugs in all of Seoul. Literally only one mosquito. At the market, I even kept an eye out for it but there were absolutely no flies or anything of the sort. I wonder why! Very cool

I had gone to Mexico city on vacation from high school. There instead of fish they had open beef strips in the market. There they had flies. Not too appealing.
We all got sick when we got there, just from the hotel food, with about a 3 day recovery time.
They call it Montezuma's Revenge
But no flies at the Seoul market... that is good, but also odd.
I wonder if and how they use pesticides. Interesting?
I had gotten some smoked fish in my travels. That was really good.

Eek, the flies would bother me for sure.
I really don't know and we did not find any evidence of stuff used to keep flies away, it was just as it was. For example in Ireland, there simply are no mosquitos and that is just how the land is. Maybe Seoul has no flies? but I have no idea, I'm sure they do somewhere and I was there in early spring anyways so that might have had something to do with it.
