  1. Man, now I really want to eat and drink in that beer garden. For pub food, Korea is nearly always indoor pubs and outdoor drinking is for plastic tables or picnic benches outside of convenience stores.
  2. I mean there are worse options than masks. Disclaimer: These are actually for noise, and were installed way before the pandemic because Lotte World is in an area surrounded by apartments which sell or rent for unbelievable prices (Over $1,000,000) but there are way worse options that can take away from ride experiences than having to wear a mask. That last one is an upgrade, they used to be full helmets with foam insulation that blocked your view on the top and so scratched you were blocked on the bottom, and the black foam would feel like an oven in the summer.
  3. ^ Considering the outdoor park doesn’t open until Late May or early June I assume they’re talking about the indoor part with that date. The parks official statement still says to be determined I’m not sure how accurate the March 1st date is until the park puts out something more official. According to official news outlets the park had a 3rd confirmed case although this time it was not a guest but a part timer worker on the life jacket kiosk. The park had to close again for this and have decided to stay closed until the restrictions are loosened but no news outlet has yet claimed it’s closed until March 1st.
  4. So I wad wrong about the 6 seater top-scan. I'd assumed it was in the old enterprise spot since it arrived when that left, but apparently they also removed the condor ride and the top scan sits on its old location. A Korean blogger posted a trip a while back and mentioned they'd photoshopped an extra row onto a picture of Everland's 5 seater ride for the park map. They should have just put a picture of Knott's on the map instead and skipped on the photo shop.
  5. One week after reopening the water park has closed again due to tougher requirements the government has laid down in the fight against corona. There's no reopening date yet, and although the indoor area runs all year, with the gold season over and some parts of the outdoor area already finished for the season, there's a chance they could just finish the outdoor area for the year.
  6. Looks like the hack is still there Larry. Just noticed under Gyeongju World
  7. The water park has reopened after being closed 5 days for disinfection. Edit: I'm hearing T Express may also no longer be reservation only, with the current outbreak the park is completely dead on all rides, so it may have been deemed not necessary.
  8. No, sorry. As it says in the video, all the onride footage was provided by Universal. They don't allow anyone to shoot footage on their rides at all. Thank you for getting a POV from Universal. I can see what the ride looks like without getting a headache.
  9. Hey man, people know greatness when they see it. Perhaps I just looked at the wrong time at USJ and the line was short because it was on an alternate hour for Sesame Street 4D instead.
  10. Of course not, as far as I'm aware Everland does have naked mole-rats in the Lost Valley queue. Not sure if they're still there, since our son was born we tend to use our Lenny points in the lottery for queue pass for that ride since it's usually the busiest ride in the park. It's normally quietest at lunch when everyone's eating and we've tried explaining it to our son but he's 4.... so he's right and we're wrong and lunchtime is obviously for lunch we have to go eat at the busiest time. He's pretty grumpy right now, we had planned to go to the park last weekend with virus cases dropping but then the churches in the area turned into hotbeds and as a teacher, I can't risk my job being in the hot spots (we have a lot of check-ups by the ministry of education to prove we are doing our best to keep the kids safe). He doesn't quite understand what's happening and if we tell people near Everland are sick he tells us he'll go blow on it and make it better... There's been nothing on their social media yet for a name. I had hoped to go see the baby panda when it goes on display but see above, not sure when I can go without parent's freaking out. In other news, Caribbean Bay was supposedly only going to be closed a few days after the coronavirus case but they've removed the calendar from the site entirely. No official notice on when or if it will reopen again this season.
  11. Let's try and lighten the thread up a bit. Everland's baby panda is now looking more panda and less naked mole rat. Source
  12. For those curious, korea is now into its 3rd and potentially worst outbreak due to a right wing anti government pastor. His church had almost 100 cases And they were required to self isolate. Instead he convinced them that it was a hoax to try and shut down the church and led thousands in protests in the centre of Seoul. He tested positive and there are already hundreds of cases linked back to the church and a lot of the members deliberately gave false information or harassed tracers letting it spread. One heavily affected church was yongin where everland is located and another couple in Seoul which is why you’ve seen posts in this thread and lotte worlds. Just shows it just takes 1 person to undo a whole countries 5 months of work.
  13. I'm having the worst luck getting these Gyeongju and Everland updates into the index lol, it's the second time I've lost them to hackers.
  14. Although nothing on the official site, corona maps (which collect confirmed locations from official sources) and local news have reported another infected guest was in the park. Source
  15. Wow Shrek 4D is 75 minutes? I don't remember even seeing lines that long for it at USJ.
  16. With domestic numbers low last week, and a 3 day weekend Everland had planned to reintroduce its fireworks show from today. However, the numbers exploded yesterday and today so Everland has now announced that not only have the fireworks been cancelled but T Express will go back to being a 100% reservation only ride like how they used to run it during peak season years ago.
  17. West Coast Racers is a better Fast and Furious ride than Supercharged.
  18. I don't normally jump on internet favorite games, which come and go fast e.g. untitled goose but as a fan of Takeshi's Castle as a child, I have been playing Fall Guys. I am awful at it though, I can't see myself getting platinum with this game with the win 5 games in a row trophy.
  19. Did I miss something? People on Twitter seem to be celebrating F&F being closed as a permanent thing. I get that the majority who have ridden it think it's garbage but it seems a big leap to think it's going away. Unless they're celebrating the temporary closure which also seems weird to me, I'd have thought you'd want the rides you think are garbage to be open to draw crowds away from the lines of the rides you do want to ride.
  20. ^Maybe July 28-29? Was planning on heading out to a small park before heavy rain and floods derailed our plans.
  21. Am I the only one getting no parks showing up in the park index except 1001 Fairyland?
  22. Mulan will debut on Disney+ in September instead of a cinema release. However, it will be $29.99 on top of your subscription to watch it as a 'one-time event'. For a big family that's cheaper than going to the cinema but I have to wonder if this is successful if other streamers might follow suit in the future having add-on premieres on top of their subscriptions.
  23. It's back with friends. [fbvideonew] [/fbvideonew]
