I live in Central Seoul, I went to a supermarket to buy something to eat, I parked my bicycle(unlock) in front of the store. After 30 min or less it's nowhere to found.

I haven't lost my bike, but I also lock up, even if it will be 2 minute trip inside a store. Of course someone stole your bike, as they would any other item of value you left free for the taking.

Even in Korea still lock your bike up.

Yes, I've had 3 bikes stolen in my life. All during routine trips where I was away for less than 30 minutes. And that was locked up. Fortunately I always had insurance or some way to recover the funds...

Bikes and umbrellas are communal property in Korea.

Those who were stupid enough to leave it unlocked... Very Happy
