Cremation demand going unmet
Not long ago, cremation was a fairly uncommon practice in Korea. Today, demand is so high that there are daily lines outside crematoriums in the Seoul area, hours before they open.... The total cost of a burial is about 7.1 million ($7,018) on average, while a cremation, including the storage of ashes, cost only about 2.5 million won on average as of May 2005, according to the Korea Consumer Protection Board.

Anyone want to invest? A cremeation outfit can't be that expensive and liability can't be much.
