Thank you!

If someone can check my math (I'm a loser). So 1,960 pyong is 594 sq. meters, or 1782 sq. feet, right?

Holy crap, my math was way off, huh (should've seen my GMAT math score...)? Thanks for helping! I'm editing an article, and the writer didn't convert a several story building to western measurments. I wish I were buying a farm....

It took more time to post the question on 'Daves' than it would have to 'Google' it.
