Just two weeks after announcing plans to build the world’s largest spokeless Ferris wheel, Seoul’s city government has shared its intention to construct urban ‘floating’ swimming zones along the South Korean capital’s Han River. Seoul mayor Oh Se-hoon announced that an art pier and public swimming pool are planned for Ichon Han River Park in southwest Seoul near the National Museum of Korea. According to a government release, the facility will be 5,000 square meters.
The estimated cost is 30 billion won, or about $30 million, and there’s no architect currently attached to the project. Mayor Oh didn’t make the big announcement in Seoul, though – he made it while visiting Copenhagen’s public Harbour Bath, which he cited as an inspiration for the upcoming Seoul waterfront project. Denmark’s capital is one of the world’s best cities for swimming.

North Korea: Latest missile simulated nuclear counterattackNorth Korea said Monday it simulated a nuclear attack on South Korea with a ballistic missile launch over the weekend that was its fifth missile demonstration this month to protest the largest joint military exercises in years between the U.S. and South Korea. The North’s leader Kim Jong Un instructed his military to hold more drills to sharpen the war readiness of his nuclear forces in the face of “aggression” by his enemies, state media reported. The South Korean and Japanese militaries detected the short-range missile being launched Sunday into waters off the North's eastern coast, which reportedly came less than an hour before the U.S. flew long-range B-1B bombers for training with South Korean warplanes. The North characterizes the U.S.-South Korea exercises as a rehearsal to invade, though the allies insist they are defensive in nature.
