King Jeongjo (the man behind the construction of Hwaseong) wanted to move the capital to Suwon which lead to the construction of said walls. Meena,

Wouldn't something like the Homer Simpson Memorial Dorm be more appropriate?

Security at Samsung’s Campus is unbelievably tight and restrictive- even compared to our locations in the USA. Bizarrely the Cubic Dream Institute building is round- shaped like a donut. Inside it’s your basic Korean Dormitory though. Wyatt,

Wyatt, If you think Millinum Campus sounds awesome wait until you hear the name of the place where I was housed: The Cubic Dream Institute. I think it sounds like a place from "A Clockwork Orange" or something. Swiss James,

How many hours have I spent walking and busing around Hwaseong and Suwon? Whether eating kalbi near the Home Plus store or catching a train in Suwon Station or drinking bubble tea at “Very Good Man” I always have enjoyed my time there in that somewhat historically important place just a little too far away from Seoul to be convenient.
