I was on my way home late at night on the subway here in Seoul, Korea. The train wasn’t so popppulated and i was listening to a bit o Beethoven on my mp3 player as i stood by the doors. The train pulled into a dimly lit and pretty empty station and as it did i’d just sellected last weeks OLL podcast. Then as the doors opened i heard an echoey, tanoy style “Resonance, this is resonance”.
Now, I didn’t know what station it was (turned out to be the oddly named ‘racecourse station’) but i was pretty sure there was no station called Resonance in the Seoul subway system. Plus, the generally announce the station in Korea before going on to English, Japanese and Chinese.
I soon realised that it was a station id of a different kind. Weird the way it happened just as the doors of my subway train opened though. Well cool it was.
