I love waterparks and amusement parks. Unfortunately, the area I came from (Seattle and Portland in NW United States) doesn't have any large theme parks or water parks, Wild Waves near Seattle is the best I've ever been to.

I keep seeing advertisements in subway stations for waterparks that boast attractions like speed slides and funnels and bowls (!). Problem is, when I searched google I only found Ocean World, Carribean Bay, and Jeju Waterworld. While I'm glad to have found those, I know that there are other such parks around Korea.

Would a fellow waterpark enthusiast please enlighten me? I'm particularly interested in waterparks around the Seoul/Gyeonggi areas, but I'm willing to travel Cool

Gyeongju World has both. Waterpark, amusement park, and plenty of places in and around to rent ATVs for a bit of mayhem. Gyeongju is also famous for its burial mounds and historical sites. Great town.
