Burn one down.

Barrel fires are a common site in the industrial areas of Seoul. Mostly found in the lots reserved for material recovery, the fires burn for warmth on the cold winter days. In some cases, the fires also act as a waste reduction strategy for the businesses. Instead of paying to dispose of the wood scraps from broken pallets, a burn barrel effectively turns the wood into ash, while simultaneously contributing to the air quality issues. In many cases, a burn barrel can be detected by smell before it is seen; if not for the common scent of combusting wood, then for the common scent of combusting chemical soaked wood.
