75 days and counting.


All alone.


This August, while the students were on summer vacation, Geumho Elementary (금호초등학교) underwent a series of significant upgrades. In addition to heating and air conditioning units, and new desks and chairs, the dirt field was converted to astroturf. Surprisingly, the school opted to keep the lone tree, though it stands just inside the sideline of the soccer field. They left a square space around the base of the tree, and dressed the trunk with a thick pad for safety. The field may not be regulation because the tree remains, but at least the tree is content.
