The Children’s Grand Park in Seoul is one of our favorite places to visit when we’re too lazy to think of where to go. It has recently been renovated and I just love the washrooms – they’re heated! The last time we visited was Sunday last week but we weren’t able to see a lot of the new places since we just dropped by on the way to a dinner at my brother-in-law’s house.
Anyway, on our way to Character World (located inside the Park) I saw this sign:
I had to check whether “pattot” is another word for parrot, which is “aeng-mu-sae” in Korean. It doesn’t exist on Merriam Webster’s. I thought my eyes were playing a trick on me and wondered whether I need to look for the best eye cream that wouldn’t harm my eyesight. 
English may not be an official language in Korea, but at least be careful when it comes to the Grand Park since a lot of kids come here to visit.
