someone burned down namdaemun, one of the gates that surrounded seoul during the chosun dynasty.
it has survived the korean war, japanese occupation, modernization, and AGE in general. it's a national treasure and one of the coolest sights to see in seoul...
...and now it has succumbed to the whim of a pyromaniac.
i can't even begin to tell you how sad this is. i'm disgusted by the morons who did it.

Oh, I'm so sad too! I never even knew that gate existed until now, but how important it must be for millions of Koreans and just the awe-inspiring historical value it has for humanity in general...I feel a loss too.
