nothing unhealthy about brita, nothing unhealthy about tap water. Pass the water through the brita and you still have water that is good to drink, filtered and prob tastes better so not a bad plan.

Why are people scared of tap water? Stop waisting your money on bottled water, and if you dont like the taste than a filter will help.

Now in a country were the water is not potable, a britta filter will not be enough to keep you from getting sick.

most of the infastructure in Seoul is new enough to drink the water and flush toilet paper down the toilet without a problem. Water from the ganges or just about any river in the world is not safe to drink, water from a modern city with good water treatment generally is.

Am I the only one who noticed they're selling water filters on a guns and ammo website?

Shoot things and stay hydrated! Very Happy

What is wrong with the tap water here? Seriously. How is it going to affect you more, long-term, than walking down busy streets? How could Korea have any problems with obtaining clean water when the rivers are plentiful, the rainy season will dump loads more in them and I see people fishing every time I cross one?

could buy a water dispenser and pay for water delivery. no longer should you drink tap water or carry around heavy bottles of water from the store.
