Seoul Racecourse

So, A and I decided to try our luck at the races, having never visited the course before. Here's a nifty statue outside the course:


As you can see, the statue is surrounded by...a road...

...but still, I insisted on getting a pic with it. This is me, encouraging the cars to continue on past, despite the photo shoot:

And here's the video I shot whilst there:

A surprisingly popular sport...I admit I didn't expect there to be so many people there. However, when you think about it; Koreans are not allowed to gamble at the casinos (only foreigners permitted there), so I suppose this is the only legal way to lose hundreds of dollars within a couple of seconds.

As for us, we spent a whopping 80 cents to enjoy the show. We couldn't gamble even if we wanted to; we have no idea how and we can't speak Korean to figure it out.
