Every korean city is famous for that apparently. Cracks me up the ways they try to market their destinations sometimes. "Famous for spring cherry blossoms! Great history! A statue of a mermaid! 4 seasons! a museum and a plate of fish guts in boiled water!"
How could anyone resist?? |

It reminds me of those places in Canada where, before entering (or driving past), you see a big billboard proclaiming the Blueberry Capital of the World, or Christmas Tree Capital of Nova Scotia (or Canada, I can't remember) or Halfway Between the North Pole and the Equator. And here I thought Stewiacke was just some small town with a gas station and three Tim Hortons, but now that I know it's Halfway Between the North Pole and the Equator, I've totally changed my mind and decided it's worth at least a week's visit. |

Show me a country that doesn't have that for every country, district, whatever the country calls their small areas. You should see Japan when it comes to what's famous in each area. |

As one who has in the past ranted against insidious Korean marketing/commercialism (11.11 day, anyone?) I would like to say HELL YES.
I'm sick of my country being defined by a goddamned fast food restaurant. |

I guess that goes to show how irrelevant Canada really is. |

It is true about places being called "famous" for whatever reason, and it is funny.
A friend had a great expression, "world famous in Korea." |

I beg to differ. I've had pibimbap in cheonju, and at THE place for it in Jeonju. It is not the best, imho.
Not that it matters much.  |
