5 hours as the only foreigner on a coach jam-packed with Korean adolescents on summer break.
AAaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarrrrrrgggghhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
(It didn't actually happen, I just saw coachloads of them and contemplated the scenario.)
Actually there is an even greater form of hanguk torture:
Catching the wrong train twice at 5.30 am while drunk, after a night of no sleep, then waking at 9am still on the subway, 22 stops and 3 changes from home no less. |

Falling asleep on the ktx from busan to daegu and ending up in seoul. Only happened once, and it really sucked. |

Why, oh why did you even have to create that image...?
There are some thoughts and ideas that should just not ever be spoken.... |

To make it worse...while they are enduring the above, they are tied next to a bundaegi cart. Sight/sound and smell torture. It'll ruin a man's mind I tell you! |

Actually I endured 4 hours of a "comedy" show on TV on a coach from Gunsan to seoul, stuck in traffic.
Really the most unfunny and inane show I've witnessed thus far.
But I suppose 2 years public service in a mom'n'pop kindy hogwon watched by cameras might beat it. |
