Early Morning Walk in Seoul

Our first mission was to conquer the Seoul subway system. As we weaved our way through the immaculate halls of the Sinchon subway station,

this is what we saw at 7:30am:

We stood on the platform, behind a wall of glass, waiting for our train to arrive. Suddenly, some kind of arrival march played over the loud speakers and then the train arrived! In fact, EVERY time the train arrives, music plays!!!!!

Once the glass doors opened, our (unusually) empty subway car awaited us to take us to the royal palace!!!
