Coffee Shop Portraits

Good Man has been working much too much lately. This week he's had a convention at COEX and he has to go to work again tomorrow. After work tonight I met him over there.

Somewhere along the way, she met a Good Man, fell in love, and ended up back in the States. Still doing taekwondo, still learning Korean...
