Locate it near wherever the centralized inprocessing center is for newly arrived USFK members: that way new personnel can get a mandatory day tour of it as part of their inprocessing. Staff it with the toughest, meanest looking tae kwon do ROK guards you can find. Central courtyard should be chockablock with big rocks needing to be broken. On the day it opens, the USFK commander and chief honcho for Korean National Police should be photograhed in a joint ribbon-cutting ceremony. For maximum effect, they will need to be grim-faced; however, in the background there should be a cohort of Korean cab drivers, wearing the broadest possible grins. How do you say "cheese" in Korean?

What’s the point of teaching them Korean then?</i> I agree. Like the criminals would really be interested in learning Korean anyway. What an utter waste of state resources.
