Now Korea needs to reciprocate by giving Americans up to 90 days without paying 30,000 won. |

Koreans will be likely to travel to the United States for three months without visas from July 2008 at the earliest.
The visa-free trip by Koreans will be possible as the U.S. Congress projects to pass the extended visa waiver program for South Korea and few other countries by early next week. |
They vote next week. |

I'm pretty sure you aren't suppose to fly when you are pregnant. Especially in your 3rd trimester.
And seeing how Koreans are VERY VERY particular about what women should and shouldn't do during pregnancy, I doubt they would fly. |

obviously you are not aware of birth tourism. Flying in the third trimester is common here so that the child will be born in the U.S. and recieve citizenship. |

Big mistake. After a few years, congress will realize that it was a mistake.
And mark my words, some senators and congressmen/women will be saying, why did I vote to allow it. |
