connect the canal to the tunnel.

charge the chinese double to use it,in case they want to visit busan,florida of asia.

I like the idea though I think it's about time this country look into developing Jeolla province in some fashion.
I think this tunnel should connect to somewhere in Jeolla.
For some reason Jeolla is left out when economic development is in progress.
I think that is one of the reason you see a lot of protests in Gwangju.
Even the KTX doesn't stop in Gwangju it's ripe for another uprising.
I could see it happening if they are overlooked for the tunnel site. |
FYI, KTX does stop in Gwangju |

The train does, but not the super fast KTX (I Think) |

I'm a little concerned with the idea of a tunnel to Japan. While it would potentially link Tokyo and London, wouldn't the possibility of an earthquake make it extremely iffy? |
The longest tunnel in the world is currently in Japan. While the Tokyo-London rail route sounds romantic, it's not something that anyone is realistically going to take.
It'd be much, much cheaper to merely deregulate air traffic. |

What are you talking about? The KTX does stop in Gwangju. But, I think they have yet to finish the high-speed tracks down there. Then again, the high-speed section between Daegu and Busan isn't finished yet too. |
