5am in Yeouido

5am, Yeouido. Office workers are already running laps around Yeouido Park, take a photo by the Han River when they finish, and it's 6:05.

This is from a KBS Documentary 3 Days episode on Yeouido workers. Another guy was on his way in at 6am watching lectures on his phone. He works 9 hours and studies 3 more on his own. When I lived in Busan I thought a 7am walk was discipline. Seoul runs on a different setting.

that episode is a few years old though. curious if it's still like this or if it was a camera-day thing

Osaka has morning runners too, but studying 3 hours after a 9 hour shift is another level

in London the only people out at 5am are on their way home, not to work

the 6:05 finish is the scary part. I'm still negotiating with my alarm at that hour
