Estimated to be done by 2014, South Korea will construct the world’s first robot theme park. This news article states that it will be in two Korean cities: Incheon and Masan. This will be a $530 million project.

I guess robotic lovers in South Korea will be happy when this project is done. I, for one, don’t particularly care much about robotics, but I sure wouldn’t mind visiting this place at least once.

That sounds soooo cool!


Do they have Disneyland in Korea?


Robots was a good movie. haha I can’t wait to see what the theme park looks like.


It’s good that they’re starting to focus on tourism.


Doesn’t Disney World have a section similar to a “robot theme” park.


Don’t know but I think they have 5 different areas that all have themes. It’s super cool.

Are you going to visit the theme park once it’s built Tara?


Poor Everland. lol


Sounds cool.


I hate theme parks. Six Flags is okay though.


this is cooooool


They should make a Nintendo land.


Wouldn’t that be Japan then?


I keep thinking of that outdated but strange movie with Yul Brenner as the robot in the robot themepark that killed that guy.


Robots are only cool when they look like the ones from iRobot.


I kind of want to go to Six Flags now. hehe


Me too!


Wait I’m confused, is it run by robots? Or is everything the park is about is robots?


Six Flags sucks this time around.


Go on a rainy day, its better. Barely anyone and so much fun.


They close down most of the rides on rainy days.

Uhhh They have Seoul Land, Everland, Lotte World, and something else land or whatever.  Dreamland, I think.  But no Disney Land.

If I’m still in Korea, sure, I’ll check it out.  Just to say I did.

I’m not sure.  I imagine it will have a place there that explains robotics, have robots running around, and uh robot-themed rides?  That’s what I’m guessing anyway.

I am still ashamed after getting faked out the first time:

Holy crap.  At first glance it really did look real!


Go during the off season of tourism.


I haven’t been to a theme park in 5 years.
