Korea Life Blog - Photo Edit

My friend Swiss James over at Lost Seouls works at the airport. He's in charge of security, or something like that. Instead of keeping the airport safe as possible, however, he spends his time using a computer, posting thought provoking messages on ESL forums, updating his eye-popping website (ranked 612 for best Korean Blog), and editing pictures such as the one on this page. He was inspired by this comment:
