Haeshindang Pen ISP Ark.
I don't know why the Koreans named their ISP Pen, maybe a local name, or an acronym of some sort?
Or why they would put it in an Ark? Well, it is a fishing village... or maybe they worship it like the Ark of the Covenant?
Hmm, Pen ISP Ark... Oh :smack:, Penis Park... nevermind

Quote:
The Penis Park is tragic in origin. A young couple, madly in love and soon to be wed is split by tragedy when the high tide overtakes the woman in view of her fiance on the shore. The next day, the number of fish caught dwindled. The following day, it dried up. The townspeople were said to be cursed and wondered what to do, that is, until a local fisherman relieved himself in the sea. The fish returned and men of the town took note. To appease the spurned woman’s inability to consummate, the virile statues were erected and placed in view of the shore. (It is unclear of whether peeing into the sea also brings good luck...)

Geez, they sure tale their folk stories seriously, don't they.
At least it sounds like more fun to visit than say... the DMZ.

It is a casual, mostly uphill hike with lots of shade and penis shaped benches to picnic on, as you listen to hikers, young and old, giggle hysterically and leave small naughty gifts at the temple to appease the desperate woman of the shore. For a culture somewhat uptight about sexuality, this is the park where it (at least the phallus) stands triumphant.
