[Faint]
Guess I'll be missing the Superbowl this year...
[Bang]

Anyone with good advice on things to do while in Inchon/Seoul?

Pee on the demil zone?....

Watch the Super Bowl ? [ROFL1]

Buy stuff cheaper than you can get it here. Clothes and shoes are pretty cheap. Pearls are usually a pretty good bargain. Beware the Soju.

[ROFL1] Stay as far away from the border as possible. Try not to get shot, bombed, or knifed. Try not to get tyfus, dengue fever, malaria, japanese encephalitis, brucellosis, cholera, giardiasis, hepatitis A or B, trachoma, or leptospirosis. Those are just the easy things to get. Um, just stay inside and pack all of your own food and water. You should be fine then. Oh, pack your hazmat suit also.

In Seoul, go to the Itaewon. It's actually a district in the city, but there's a lot there. Western restaurants, bars, shops, all sorts of stuff.

The DMZ isn't too far north; although whether you want (or can) go there right now is another story...

You may hear different, but I'd stay away from the street carts, if you run across any. Not only because you don't want to bring home a Korean bug, but also becasue there's not much difference in Korean between beef on a skewer, and dog on a skewer. No, I'm not kidding...

Soju is the Korean national drink, other than beer. It isn't like booze here, there are no quality controls on it...one batch may be 20 proof, and the next 100. I don't think it really tastes like anything, but it sure hurts the next day!

The correct answer is "Yup."
