After I told my friend I was going to mention him in my post to this forum for the US China seminar, he continued to text me another fact stating, "How about... the great wall of China is the only man made structure visible from outer space". I'm glad I am able to get another person to think more about interesting facts about Asia.
And now added to that post, Did you all know that David Copperfield once walked right through the Great Wall of China? I would love to visit that wondrous structure one day.
So I was just texting a friend earlier tonight and he told me that he learned a new fun fact about Seoul, Korea. He said that the name of the capitol of South Korea, "Seoul", literally means "the Capitol"!
I thought that it was cool that someone who wouldn't normally look up a fact like that was learning about Asia through a cell phone game
The name of the game is "Text Twist", if you get a chance to check it out. It unlocks facts the more words that you unscramble.
