I've recently been having problems accessing certain websites. Well, that is to say, I could not and still can not access a number of websites unless through proxy. I wanted to check if other users in Korea had the same problem.

If you're currently residing in Korea can you tell me if the following address works for you?
http://kingofweb.com/

I've heard it might just be my ISP but I'd like to test it with other users before I make any calls.

Works for me, the other night while surfing for pron. Normal pron btw, nothing freaky. I got a weird pop-up. Something about the south korean police service......weird.

There does seem to be an increase in sites being blocked. king of the web comes up fine for me. On the other hand, www.geocaching.com has been blocked, which is frustrating as this is one of my favorite hobbies, slowly gaining popularity here in Korea. I also just checked lumosity.com which is a site I paid for to access advanced features, and today it is blocked. As near as I can figure out, they have been deemed to be part of DDOS attacks (Distributed Denial of Service) which have plagued the country in the past, though usually attributed to the regime north of here. I'm hoping that this is temporary. ~Larry, Cheonan
