We took the bullet train from Seoul to Pohang yesterday. It felt familiar as I got on. Ah, it's actually a Eurostar train! Comfortable, smooth, and on time.
After a short taxi ride from Pohang Station, we arrived at the PIC (PIC = POSCO International Center, POSCO = Pohang Iron and Steel Company). The Centre includes the conference venue and a hotel. The view from my room is a combination of AC unit (necessary in the heat!) and lovely greenery.
Today started with a tour of the POSTECH campus (POSTECH = Pohang University of Science and Technology) for those who had arrived early enough.
