It’s not everyday that Long Island gets featured in the Chosun Ilbo’s travel section, so why not celebrate it with a link.
Just a note: No, I don’t come from the Hamptoms, nor, apparently, do I come from this anywhere on this list, although I do come from somewhere around here, judging from the bridge in the background. And in case you were wondering, there were three Long Island-related entries in Naver.com’s online encyclopedia: Long Island, the Battle of Long Island and Long Island Sound. And embarrassingly enough, it was up to some poster in Naver’s information base to inform me that Long Island is, in fact, the largest island in the continental United States.

Ah, those were the days. Back in the early ’80s, I and some friends had a summer house on Meeting House Lane just off Bluff Road in Amagansett behind the nature preserve between Indian Wells Hwy and Atlantic Ave. Later in the ’80s, I got my own place up in Fennimore Cooper territory, because the Hamptons had gotten overrun by too many of the people I saw in NYC all year long and whom I really didn’t care to see with most of their clothes off in the summer, since it was a job to put up with them the rest of the time back in the city. The Korean noveau riche will fit right in.
You mean there is something past Manhattan?
You say you are from that area, more imporantaly do you know that big tit-ed broad the green in the background? Is she single?
Whats the over-under on somebody discribing somewhere the “Hamptons of Korea”?
Rockaway Beach in the 60’s was the best.
In my mind that is paradise.
We lived those summers in the scraps of Robert Moses’ plan - misguided but well thought. All the rich Jews and WASPS went east and we climbed up the trees.

There actually isn’t. But people who don’t live in Manhattan like to tell us that there is.
Gee, natural beauty. Big breasted women. Are you sure the story wasn’t about Canada?
