Directions: New Millennium Hall for Mulmangcho fundraiser


Directions to New Millennium Hall for fundraiser at Yonsei University 6:30 pm 11/20 for the Mulmangcho school for refugee children located in Yeoju. 10,000 won donations, find out more info here https://www.facebook.com/#!/events/403227543084175/.

Starting from the Sinchon subway near Yonsei University. I would suggest taking Exit 3. Walk straight towards Yonsei University.
 
 
You'll pass a lot of stores and people along the way, then arrive at the front gate.
 
 
Walk in, on your right you'll see a map of the campus.
 
 
Look closely at the map, you'll see the route that you can take to arrive easily. The route I took kept me walking on the right side until I arrived at the building. That meant passing buildings 83, 82,78,77,40,41,58,59, to arrive at 61.
 
 
Here's the map's name in English. You want to arrive at building 61.
 
 
In Korean
 
From the map, you need to walk straight into the campus.
 
 
Here's the first challenge. A fork in the road. At this fork in the road, walk to the right.
 
 
You'll walk up the hill, see signs like this letting you know you are going in the right direction.
 
 
Walking up the hill you'll arrive at another fork in the road. Continue walking on your right.
 
 
You'll know you are close because you'll pass the President's Residence.
 
 
You'll come to another fork in the road, with a security box in the middle. This time, walk to the left.
 
 
There is, by the way, a bus timetable. If you can understand it, then you can try to use that.
 
 
That's what New Millennium Hall looks like on one side.
 
 
If you miss the turn, here's how it looks from the other side.
 
 
First floor, walk in, you'll see this small sign.
 

Then you can arrive at room 112. I didn't take a photo inside because there was a class going on at the time.
 

FYI, here is the sign in very clear Korean that you can show to people in case you somehow get lost.

Michael Vick ain't got nuthin on me!!!

After football player Michael Vick admitted that he had been running a dog-fighting business I wrote that he was an idiot. If he was going to engage in such activity he should have gone to Indonesia or somewhere else. He certainly had the money to do so at that time. If he knew then what he knows now then he would have spent $10 million to run his dogfighting ring in Manila. Today I did something that probably not even Michael Vick ever did: I ate dog meat. I never expected that I would do so. It is a bit scandalous because Koreans don't just kill the dogs and eat them. Rather, they will beat them to death while they are still alive. That allegedly is to get the adrenaline flowing which allegedly makes the meat more tender which allegedly improves a man's stamina. I had told a friend that I wanted to give it a try. But as we sat down to eat I said: "I want to try this but don't give me any details until after we are finished eating." It just looked like regular me...

A defector and a refugee join South Korea's National Assembly

Two North Korean refugees will be joining South Korea's National Assembly. They have taken two different paths to get to this point. The defector : Thae Yong-ho was part of North Korea's elite. He was educated to represent North Korea, going to the best schools and having the best tutors the North Korean system could pay. He was working as a diplomat for North Korea when he escaped. He was intimately aware of the flaws with North Korea's system, as an insider expected to lie for it. He could have continued with the easy life of a diplomat. The refugee : Ji Seong-ho was starving in North Korea when he was injured in an accident, he passed out while on a train and ended up getting run over by it. He lost a leg and suffered in many ways. After he went to China in search of food, he was arrested, tortured for a week, had his crutches taken from him. He later escaped, hobbling across China and SE Asia. North Korea had become unbearable for him, living with only one leg. A ...
