• Big. Imposing. Impressive.
• Little scary to kids.

“Yi Sub Shin, the "thinking general" who became famous for his smart tactics and the 'turtle' armored battleships during the war with the Japanese invaders, is one of the heroes of my childhood when I was growing up in Korea. This statue is almost as big as the general's legend. It's become one of the best known landmarks in the streets of Seoul. If you're in downtown Seoul, walk over to Jongno and take a snap shot or two.”
