Here is a quick cultural difference for you. I was talking with my co-teacher at one of my schools. I had started laughing because one of my students had yelled out "Lindsey! Yo!" and held up the peace sign. She was asking why I was laughing and I told her what happened she said in Korea the two fingers up peace sign mean Victory! You see a lot of pictures with them holding the peace sign up. I thought this was interesting.
I also looked closer at a picture hanging in once of my schools and I noticed some of the students are flipping the camera off! I think they know what this means I am just surprised they would post this in the main hall way of a school. I don't think this has alternate meaning in Korea...
