Every once in a while I see a picture that just hits me, and I think, "That's Korea. Right there." I've got two here but I'm sure you all have your own as well. Let's see them...

PS Did you want photos that represent Korea or photos that represent young female Korea? I've got a few of the latter as well...

I'm guessing it was a Lotteria in a bus or train station. I've passed out there myself.

Superfly,
You made a good choice. A child posing at an airport.

Giving Birth Abroad
"Korean" is one product that has lost its competitiveness. A home shopping network offers "emigration packages" and gets sold out, while "emigration fairs" are standing room only. When private tutoring fees are a major burden on household finances, when you're going to be unemployed even as a university graduate, and when having a job still leaves you feeling insecure, then of course people aren't going to want to live in Korea. If people believe that today's a trial and tomorrow you'll only be more drained, then the "escape Korea syndrome" will be unstoppable.

I'm afraid photo credits goes to my Canadian buddy Stu. A pretty savvy photographer. I don't know where he took it.

It's possible to edit a post and delete it before another post is made on the same thread. I can only assume that the picture was posted, then edited to deletion, and came back after the comment on it was posted.
