|
|
While reading the "awful business ideas" thread, I thought maybe some of us had some superb business ideas for Korea.
I was thinking, a sky-scraper on Dokdo (or on re-claimed land as close as possible, with a view of Dokdo). Sell it in the Chinese style, that is, sell individual apartments before the building is constructed. Sell the first unit to a rich Japanese businessman, then sell the other 99 units auction-style to Koreans and Japanese, to the top 99 bidders, or whatever. The best part is, you don't have to actually build the building! Just spend several years having your "engineers" try to figure out the undersea construction problem, spend the money and declare bankruptcy.
Second idea: New world map "fisheye projection" that distorts Korea to be somewhat larger than Australia or Greenland. |

Would be even more exciting if they had those with girls. Pay them a drink and anything goes. Or in my case, better if it were men.  |

They already have them. I believe they're called hagwons. Or you can observe them in their natural habitat by visiting Itaewon or Hongdae at night. Oh, they have very advanced social networks, and some have even been taught to use mobile phones and the subway system. Yes, foreigners possess many remarkably humanlike attributes. |

I don't know... I still think they're more like monkeys, Guru. |

Yes, I believe you're right, Dr. Zaius. All our findings thus far, they only demonstrate the need for further observation and dissection. |

3 words. Kimchi milkshake stand. I have visions of a cabbage-shaped stand. That dude in the front even looks a bit like me. Freaky.
