Oh Korea!

This past weekend, I went to Samcheok with my boyfriend to visit a very special park in South Korea called Haesindang Park.
This park is known to for it's statue galore of penises. The fence is made of wooden penises and even the benches are penises.
I thought this place would be offensive for many Koreans before I visited it because of the theme but when I arrived at the park, the atmosphere was totally opposite; visitors were laughing and having a humorous time at the park. This place isn't sexist either, vaginas have their own share of being displayed, oh and not to forget about the he-she, she-he because they are there, too. This park is for EVERYONE :)
Enjoy the photos!
