I see naked people

I learned to love hot spring when I lived in Japan. Here in Korea, they translate at 'Hot Saunas.' By any name, they are still great.

To most people, one room full of naked men might seem much like any other room full of naked men, but to my discerning eye there a number of differences from what I got used to in Japan. In Japan, many men carry a small towel around and hold it or lay it strategically for modesty. In Korea, nobody does that. Here, they are much more comfortable laying face-up and spread-eagled under the heat lamps. During the pre-soak scrub, fathers vigorously clean their sons and friends frequently scrub each others backs.

Korea has many Hot Saunas and we are looking forward to visiting as many as we can.
