I'm out of the basement! It's an honor just to be nominated. Since I have tenants renting out my apartment while I'm in Hawaii studying, I had to stay with friends this past summer. One place was in this general vicinity, and I passed near this place on the way to the local McDonald's, which had free WiFi. Leon LaPorte, if I recall they are on the periphery of the museum grounds (which I think used to be part of the palace grounds), which during the post-war era had "modern" houses like those in the background built right up next to it. A lot of the houses are now converted restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, and small businesses. This is fun, even when I don't actually get the answer. I guess all of us are in a position to play spoiler between Mark and Leon LaPorte (who's not the <i>real</i> Leon LaPorte, is he?). Yay! I'm out of the basement! It's an honor just to be nominated.

I'm not sure if that's what this is, but that's what I was referring to when I said 경희궁, because I <i>think</i> the museum is on the palace grounds (but not sure).
