Excellent. Round up all the tourists and put them in one place.

A place conveniently located near a nuclear reactor.

This is how the zombie apocalypse starts folks. Radioactive tourists.

No, it started constructin in the 80s, and remained a concrete structure with no cladding for ~20 years before the cladding was recently finished. I don't know if they have gone further and finished the interior.

No cladding on it, thus it was "open".

Hopefully there is a building there called "Have your way with Hyuna".

South Korea's GDP was 1.2 trillion US last year. I'm sure if the government wanted to, they could get financing no problem.

Where are they going to find the resources to make this happen? Eventually the world is going to run out of these metals.

Well, we know there will be at least a minimum of 2 mineral fields and 2 Vespene gas deposits when they first start to build. Good for initial stages of construction, but they'll need to expand and look for more resources later on.




Does this really need to be in green?

The SK's will just hire James Cameron and company to hook a few of the near Earth asteroids and bring them into orbit to mine for this project.

I'd argue we have the technology, just not the political or economic will (for good reason).

Humans have done some pretty amazing things when they are focused on it. From the pyramids to the A-bomb, it's not hard to get something completed if your completely focused on it. However if your trying to add it to a sustainable society and economy (without the benefits of slave labour) that can be very different.

It would cost a fortune to go there.

Also, walking through the gigantic penis would be a bit.....awkward. Would they hang signs saying: "You Are the Semen."?
