Below you'll find a map of Korea...which is actually taped to my wall. I couldn't find a good one online so I went and bought one. Places I've been to have been marked with stars. Under the map is a list of when I went to each place, who was with me, and whatever else I feel like adding. The map on my wall has North Korea on it too...and the stars are actually yellow dots without numbers, but close enough. It's helpful though, because the names are too small to read in the picture, so you'll just have to believe me that the places I say are where the stars mark them. Perhaps like Astro-boy I'll have to a mistake in my report to the computer Geronimus, in order to play a game with you, the home viewer.
