Shoeshine Robot

Saw this strange "shoeshine robot" machine at Seoul Station and my shoes were pretty scuffed up so I gave it a try. (1,000 won which is about $1US) You should have seen all the curious Koreans flock around to see what the silly foreigner was up to...After much observation, most wanted to try this unusual contraption out for themselves! As this machine roughly polished my shoes, I could just imagine the headlines, "Foreigner gets his foot hacked off in novelty machine in Seoul..." Thank God I walked away with both legs!
