Steven S. Bammel replied to Chris Backe's discussion New book project: Weird and Wonderful Korea"Chris - Of your list, the only one I ever made it to was Daejeon Expo Park, and that was back in 1994 about six months after the expo was closed and it was mainly being used as an amusement park.

Hi all,Chris Backe / Chris in South Korea here - I'd like to ask your the KBC's help for a new book project I'm working on.

A few places from…See More

I like American humor a lot. It's exhilarating and helps promote your culture overseas. Other cultures lack in the dynamic trait of this aspect and end up being drab. Korea has showcased enduring forbearance in the face of relentless attacks, both in arms and rhetoric by the North Korea. I admire their courage and am content to be in this community, even though there's very little I can do now. I listened to KBS in Japanese for the first time yesterday. A Korean friend on mixi(Japanese Facebook) recommended it. I like learning the situations in Korea.
