Default My First trip to KOREA!

My company invited me (with 3 days notice!) to check out our production facility near Seoul. Here I am... 13hr flight later in Korea.

What are some cool places to visit? The must see locations?

I def. Like the place already!
Thanks in advance!!!!!

In particular, check out that bit of idiocy practiced by the South Korean military in which a group of its soldiers (all of whom are over six-feet tall) hold hands as one of them locks or unlocks the "South Korean side" of the conference room that helps to divide South Korea from North Korea. Get it - ? - they all hold hands so as to (LOL!) avoid being taken prisoner by the North Korean soldiers who are responsible for locking and unlocking "their side" of the room. It's a hoot!
Paranoia will destroy yuh.

If successful, your prize will be a lifetime spent in North Korea.
Ergo, in this case, being "successful" would translate into your being shot to death before reaching the "other side."

I can not believe they are damn paranoid. And why is N. Korea still even around?
