Picture of the Day: ROK Legation Building in Washington, D.C. to Reopen as A Museum

Korea's former legation building to reopen as museum

This photo taken on May 14, 2018, shows Korea’s former legation building in Washington after renovations to turn it into a museum. The building, set to reopen on May 22, was used as Korea’s diplomatic mission to the United States, sold off by Japan after it colonized Korea and repurchased by South Korea. (Yonhap)

What a waste of prime real estate. They should flatten it and build a condo there.

I’m surprised Commie Moon hasn’t cut the funding for it.

Nice story about this house that includes the couple who owned it and decided to sell it back to the Korean government. This is an eight minute video.
