i served for a year in South Korea. i came back in one piece. :lol: :wink:
my son was also there for a year - obviously a lot more recently - and had a blast.
i believe your son will find it different enough to be interesting and fun, but modern and similar enough to be comfortable and have no regrets about taking the job. just make sure he understands that his first order of business is to find those fabric shops. :lol:
