Taxicab Confessions

Me: Can you take us to Gudeok Market?
Cabbie: Yes!
:::takes us to an elementary school:::

Me: Can you take us to Gudeok Market? (We also show him this in Korean on Brent's phone. He takes out a magnifying glass and studies it closely - which should have been my first clue to vacate the cab immediately.)
Cabbie: Yes!
:::takes us to an apartment complex 30 miles from home:::

Next time, I'm just going to get in and tell the driver to take me to the moon and see what happens. On the way, I'll talk endlessly about myself, since he won't understand a word I'm saying, and tell him all of my deepest and darkest secrets. THEN it might actually be worth 10,000 won.
