Seoulatious Scavenger Hunt

I've always wanted to do a photo scavenger hunt.  And, there are some things in Korea I've always wanted to take a picture of (e.g. couple outfit) but never quite had the courage to ask.  Well, it was easy to do while playing a game.  It wasn't something I wanted, it was a photo I needed for the game.  Fortunately, since I created the hunt, I put quite a few things on the list that I knew I wanted to get a photo of.  The game itself consisted of 'Randomness,' 'Team Silliness,' 'Specific Places,' 'To Infinity and Beyond,' as well as 'Judge's Call.'

Randomness was exactly like it sounds, a list of about 100 random objects.  Team Silliness included team acts such as pole dancing, singing on public transit, etc.  Landmarks, buildings, and statues were to be found in the Specific Places section.  Finally, To Infinity and Beyond included those things which there are a lot of in Korea (Family Marts, Post Offices, Cafe Benes, etc.) and Judge's Call was cutest baby, hottest man and woman, as well as other opinionated photos.  We took about 4 hours with the list and still only found about half the items.  We finished in Itaewon and everyone was exhausted in the end.  Anyway, here are the photos from the 1st Seoulatious Scavenger Hunt:
