Questions

I've been in South Korea for 13 days now and have observed the society and culture. Which brings me the some questions. First, I'd like to know why it is impossible to find a trash can on the streets of Seoul. It makes me wonder if America produces more waste than South Korea. Another random thing I'd like to know is why there are soldiers roaming the streets as casual civilians, but still in there military uniform. I thought that soldiers had to serve for 2 years of military duty. Finally, I would like to know how most Koreans can remain skinny with all the food that they eat in a day. I think it is quite a lot of food since there is always side dishes with everything. Those are the only questions that I have as of right now. Since I love the Korean culture, I've just currently been absorbing all the similarities and difference without much questions. However, if I do develop any others, I'll definitely address them.
