Korea Life Blog - Apartment Madnesss in Nowhere-dong

I live in a small country town, for the time being. Even here, in the middle of nowhere, new apartment complexes are constantly under construction. I can't believe this many people actually live here, but perhaps apartments are much cheaper here and the people are commuting to Suwon, which is not far away.



They slapped this "Samsung Town" together within several months. Han Shin Apartments, where most of my students live, loom in the background.



This is a massive bunch of apartments being built just next to Han Shin Apartments. Now there's pretty much no scenery left to look at in this little country town, only apartments, a main road, and a string of usual businesses housed in plain, flat concrete buildings.
