Welcome to Korea Finder. The way this contest works is that each week a new image is posted and the first reader to accurately describe or locate the image gets a point. At the end of the year the reader with the highest amount of points will win a Korea related book of their choice.
Who knows the location of this photo in South Korea?:

I hate posting from my phone. It’s hard to post the proper cross reference.
Quit yer poo-poo’ing, this week’s image is blocked so all I see is the little placeholder with an X. 😛
Not sure if the pics will come through, but the pic is the 4th one down on this page:

Sneaking the contests in when I’m getting blood transfusions, eh? Congrats to MTB.
I was buried at work wouldn’t really have had time to look anyway. Good thing the Drop had that photo cause that could be any of a billion places in Korea. Crawling on a mapserver would’ve taken forever and been pretty fruitless.
@MTB Rider, yes you got the correct answer. That is a picture I took at the Chipyong-ni battle site. A ceremony was recently held for the commander of the French battalion, Ralph Monclar who played a key role in the Battle of Chipyong-ni.
