How is this not huge news in the media right now? Goddamnit, that Anna Nicole's death managed more publicity than this.

It's a huge story on the Korean news. My wife is Korean, and she literally freaked out when she heard the news.

it will be gone forever!

i understand, but that's not gonna change the fact that it was built. i wonder if there's enough documentation of the details to be built exactly the same.

my culture is full of things like that, which got burnt by the mongolians and crusaders and stuff, but they have always rebuilt the stuff

asdflkijd · 02-18-2008, 12:53 AM

It will take 3 years to rebuild it, and 21 million dollars.

323d · 02-18-2008, 12:54 AM

i am pretty sure they will have a pretty detailed blueprint of the building.. it just won't be the same since it will be replica. AKA using new technology to build it instead of HAND built ..

damn,, and i was planning on visiting the site this summer when i willl be going to korea for exhange

Your fooling yourself if you think America is the only one at war... Most of the Asian countries are supporting America across sea, you'd be surprised to see how much controversy there is in the Korean news about the war in Iraq...

+1, everything on the building was handmade back then.. now it will be computer rendered and made by machines.. Thus only taking three years to rebuild it verses centuries...

Why don't they Castrate him? WTF was he thinking? Gee some way to draw attention to yourself Wow. Now where were the guards? Don't they have guards for such important places? And don't they have fire equipment close enough? I mean I am wondering if they didn't realize there are enough crazies out there that something like this is possible. Seems there were caught with their pants down on this one.
