this was an indoor ice wall or a poor translation job?
I want to go to hell... there's probably lots of rock to climb there.

Appears to be an indoor ice climbing wall. Cool idea. The translation is very bad, but the meaning is discernible. I have read enough gym wavers that it is not hard to know what they are trying to say.

Yup, it's an indoor ice gym. There are about 20 rock gyms at at least two indoor ice gyms that I know of in Seoul. Koreans are crazy about climbing. Not suprising, the whole city is ringed by amazing peaks of squamish-like granite.

huh?! I didn't know that. Is the outdoor climbing any good?

How did you like those rental tools? They look pretty sweet.
