Today was our most anticipated day of the trip. The DMZ, or Demilitarized Zone, is one of the most well-known tourist attractions in South Korea. It separates the borders of South and North Korea. On the bus ride over, it was exactly as I imagined it. There was barbed wire along all the fences, with scouting towers for the soldiers. It was misty out with fog going over all the land. The first attraction we went to see in the DMZ was the tunnels. The tunnels were built by North Korea to invade South Korea. Four tunnels were going from North Korea all the way to the capital, Seoul. This was a full-on invasion, but luckily, they were found. We got to walk in the tunnels all the way down and get very close to the border. The ceilings were so low that we kept hitting our heads on the top. It was a hard walk down, but definitely worth it. The next attraction was the observation deck, where you could look into North Korea. Sadly, there was so much fog that I couldn’t see a tree 10 feet in front of me. We got unlucky with the weather, but it was still a fun experience.

Next up was my most anticipated thing on the trip, a KBO baseball game. We ordered fried chicken and got it delivered to the game. We were allowed to bring into the stadium, which is awesome. The energy of the game was incredible. There were cheerleaders on each side leading chants and dances for all the fans. The game went into extra innings, and everyone was still standing on both sides. The passion for baseball was next level. There were a couple of American players on the home team, which was the Kiwoom Heroes. I made it my job to root for him the entire game, calling his name out. Sadly, he did not play great and wasn’t in the mood to talk. After 11 innings of baseball, the game finished, and we headed to the hotel. Day 10 in Seoul did not disappoint.
