| Wangsimni Station has a blood donation facility. They are in need of Types A and O currently. |

Check out the Red Cross. I haven't done so, but from their web site, you should be able to donate.

| Each of these Blood Centers has at least one staff member who can conduct a donor interview in English. Please contact the Center ahead of time and make an appointment to ensure a smoother visit. |

If that's true, then it's just sad. I wouldn't give a drop to em' if that's truly a fact.  |

I was turned down by the Red Cross a few years ago. However, there was a kid in Pusan a couple of years ago who needed O- and his family were more than happy that waygookins volunteered.
Like so many things here, it is variable. |

After being turned down volunteering your blood? Then they needed yours?
Oh man, I would have had quite the pay day if I wwould have been in your shoes. Either that, or I would have made the blood center employees and family do Fear Factoresqe labors. |

| Yeah, they don't want your impure waygook blood. If you work at a high school you could try sneaking on the blood bus when it comes around but I doubt you'd have much success. |
