I do think Legoland should never have been built there (they found one of the largest bronze age settlements ever found in Korea - they built freaking Legoland on top of it anyway), but it was built, and defaulting on bonds was probably the stupidest thing anyone could have done with it. I mean, someone could've sneaked in with a can of gasoline at night and burnt the whole thing down, and it would have cost less on the Korean economy.
- imtringued 4y agoSo you are telling me they could have built lower cost tourist attractions based on the bronze age history of the location but they decided to pave over their money maker because Legoland is an internationally recognized brand?
- yongjik 4y agoWell, in terms of money-making, the bronze age settlement would have made, at best, a small provincial museum that attracted a negligible number of people. Nobody drives an hour to see some stones arranged in the shape of a house. Builders bulldozing over irreplaceable ancient sites are not exactly unique to Korea, after all. (At least this one got excavated.)
