This is actually just an abandoned university campus construction site, but we gave it this misleading nickname to throw people off and for some obvious on-site peculiarities.

1. Our first attempt to find the way there led us through a graveyard.



2. Nope, wrong hill, but at least we got this clear if poorly lit view.



3. Finally found the right way in.



4. Next time I come, I'll rent a fisheye. This was done by stitching about six exposures together.



5. It's full of holes everywhere.



6.



7.



8. I found a shooting script for what looks like a music video.



9. Three candles and an old CRT.



10. In the other round building, we found an abandoned library.


11. This is a Korean-language copy of the Talmud, likely intended for an economics class (many Koreans are impressed by Jewish people's control of world banks and think they'll be smarter and better at business if they read the Talmud).




12. A 20-year-old PC World magazine.



13. This part of the country is surrounded by marshmallow farms.



14. Further justification for the nickname, here's a book on the Communist Party.



15. Without being able to read Korean, any guesses what this is?



16. They started building a washroom.



17. From the middle building, looking at the first round building.



18. And the other.



19. The proportions of this one got a little skewed but I like it.



20.



21. There was a small tree growing in the atrium.



22. Time to bone up on something in a language I can't remotely read.



23.



24. The last thing a pizza sees.

Gulliver's Travels. Thanks for sharing this place, it does have a very Soviet Union vibe architecturally.

Great stuff, gotta' love the Communist architecture.
That six shot stitch-up was excellent too!

Nice report, I noticed some of the books have Hanzi (Chinese characters) on the cover, I wasn't sure if they were still used in South Korea, or are these just older books.

They're old characters, but still have the same use here. Koreans learn them in school but most tend not to learn them more than English-speaking Canadians learn French in school. Despite what a shithole China is, Chinese characters are still considered a sign of intellect and class.

Awesome

What a sad monitor.

I'm surprised no one has started an abandoned crt thread

Always enjoy the places your explores take us. Whats with this University? Half used and half not!? OR, never completely finished? All the books makes it seem like it was in use at one time. #5 is a little wonky-round isn't it?!? lol, Marshmallow farms...thats a fun story within itself. hahaha! some people think they grow on trees.

Ohhh, that library <3

For something only half-completed, this looks like an extremely cool place with a lot of photographic potential, which you explored nicely.
