Two of them are the husband and wife who run the corner shop, they are always very helpful when I go in with my tiny Korean and my pictures of what I want to buy.
The third is the old man who lives across the alley from me. He steals my rubbish. He is apparently a strong supporter if recycling and while I do divide my rubbish (trash for Americans) he roots through it and takes all the bits he wants. I think he probably sells it to a recycling centre.
Finally there is an old lady who lives on the first floor (the next one up from ground level) in a building at the other end of my lane. I see her shaking the blankets out her window most mornings as I'm going to work. In the last couple of weeks she has started smiling and waving to me as I go past. So of course I smile and wave back. Today she was waiting when I came. She leaned out and dropped a small bag if candy down to me. That was unexpected. But nice. :-)
