Korean Condoms


This puzzles me almost as much as the missing taegeuk in the palgwae depiction in my previous post. This is a photo of a packet of strawberry flavoured Korean condoms. Depicted on this packet is what appears to be a happy little penis, with a condom on his head, surfing. A surfing penis -- even after seeing it illustrated, it still boggles the mind.

I do not know what "Zzimong" means. The "z"-sound does not even exist in Korean. Above "Zzimong" there is written in Korean characters "cham sarang", which literally translates as "true love."
