Itaewon

154 dead in Itaewon Halloween "crush."

Horrible, sad news.

Itaewon is the former redlight district for US soldiers in Seoul.  Over the years is has somewhat gentrified into a more general "foreigner neighborhood" with cheap rents and various foreign food restaurants and very poorly made buildings that should have been torn down years ago.

My only thought right now is along the lines of, gentrify the fucking place and be done with it.
