I was just reading how dangerous PVC is. How much PVC do you think you'd find in a Korean home due to its extreme cheapness? My officetel for instance has this stringy looking plastic stuff that's peeling off the wall in the corners. It kinda looks like old shrink wrap, it's really brittle though. Is this PVC?

yes it most likely is. but so is your keyboard, cellphone, food wrappers and about a million other things you come in contact with everyday. it's not just korea, it's every industrial country. they use to side houses in U.S. (vinyl siding), think about how dangerous it is if that house catches on fire...

i was shocked and horrified after I learned about pvc and realized how I was surrounded by it but there isn't much you can do. you can't escape it Mad
