SOCIETY In South Korea, you can voluntarily experience prison facility to escape from stress of a daily life.

"Prison Inside Me" is a unique healing facility located in Hongcheon, South Korea, designed for people to voluntarily experience a prison-like environment and escape the stress of daily life.

The facility was founded in 2013 by a former prosecutor and his wife, inspired by their belief that people needed a space to step away from their busy lives and reflect on themselves. Visitors stay in simple solitary cells equipped with only a mat, a small desk, a toilet, and a tea set. There are no mobile phones, clocks, or mirrors, and meals are delivered through a slot under the door. This experience is designed to encourage deep self-reflection, rest, and mental detoxification.

Activities such as meditation, journaling, and light stretching are allowed, but conversations are restricted.

This unique concept has been gaining popularity in South Korea, a society known for its high work intensity and academic stress. Most visitors are office workers, students, or individuals seeking a break from societal pressures.

Despite the strict conditions, many participants describe their time here as a form of 'liberation' rather than 'confinement'."

I am South Korean and found about this today… I would actually love to try this.

I got a notification that there was motion at my door and when I looked at the footage, a hummingbird is shown flying up to it and tapping it. I don't have hummingbird feeders so I don't know where this one came from. Neat.

I poured some water into a very hot pot, swirled it around and after I stopped, the water continued it's path. As the pot cooled down, the water eventually broke form and dispersed. I'm assuming this is the Leidenfrost Effect in action. Science is neat!

On 3/4/20, my husband and I drove through Manhattan to see what it looked like. Because of the pandemic, almost everything was closed. The sound of ambulances was constant. Very few cars and very few people. It was quite surreal.
