Fun At The Pharmacy

I managed to purchase two boxes of what appear to be cold medicine, however, not being able to read Korean I thought I'd pop on-line and see what I'm taking.

Here is the original text from the Myticin manufacturers website:

And in Engrish, as translated by Bablefish:

The E the mote shoes X granule is becoming the bright person in all bottle instant costume change which is from a herb doctor kyo the mountain the various inflammation nature exchange in the remote area due to a heat generation with one product (piece dyeing which is, bronchitis back) and the cold in Je Jeung Sang (mouth dries and headache, cough) to be an effect alleviates a fever, shows an anesthetic relaxation action.

I think my favorite quote is the "elder brother dog, the friendly nation it sleeps." No wonder we have problems with international relations! I'm going to go take 1 time 1/2 guns and go to bed. Wish me luck.
