Seoul "Forest"

Today's Activity: Visit Seoul Forest. One thing I've noticed about Korea (if I may be blatantly categorical with generalizations) is that they like to exaggerate, just a bit (kinda like what I'm doing right now). Forest doesn't really mean forest. It means they planted a couple hundred tiny trees that will take decades before resembling anything foresty. International fair doesn't really mean international fair. It means they had one booth (operated by Koreans) of merchandise imported from another country.

Just an observation, not a criticism. I personally love the fact that on any given day you can find a fair, a grand opening, a festival, or an event to enjoy. There is always something fun going on in Seoul. And I already know that I will miss that when I leave.
