Joo-Eun L., Korea: "How to become a Muslim? So easy. If you are a man, make sure you are circumcised. That's anyway better for male hygiene (even American doctors admit this). Then go to any mosque and tell them that you want to become a Muslim. You just have to say the Shahada before two male witnesses. That's only two lines in Arabic. They mean: I confess that there is no god but Allah, and I confess that Muhammad is the messenger of Allah. So easy. Then you are a Muslim already, and enjoy all the benefits."

Kako postati muslimani? Tako enostavno. Ce ste moški, poskrbite, da ste obrezani. To je nekako bolj za moške higieno (tudi ameriški zdravniki to priznam). Potem pojdite na katero koli mošejo in jim povedal, da želite postati muslimani. Moraš reci Shahada pred dvema moških pric. To je le dve vrstici v arabšcini. To pomeni: jaz priznam, da ni boga, ampak Allah, in jaz priznam, da je Mohamed je glasnik Allah. Tako enostavno. Potem ste že muslimanske, in uživajo vse prednosti.

Southwestern Region / Mt. Chirisan

The first national park in Korea, is the second highest mountain next to Mt. Hallasan on Chejudo Island. It is vast in size and its peaks, including the 1,915-meter-high Ch'onwangbong, stretch across three provinces; Chollanam-do, Chollabuk-do and Kyongsangnam-do.

This is a majestic mountain but it is advisable that only climbers with proper moun tain-climbing equipment and plenty of experience should attempt to hike to the peaks in this area.

With streams running through thick virgin forests and a sea of clouds covering the peaks of the mountain, Mt. Chirisan offers magnificent scenery. The foot of the mountain is dotted with many Buddhist temples including Hwaomsa Temple and many remains of the past.
