Universal Studios resort in South Korea to open in 2014

Read about it here: Universal Studios to open in 2014

Highlights:

Universal Studios in South Korea is going to be bigger than all of the other parks combined. I've been to Universal Studios in Los Angeles, CA and Orlando, FL. I enjoyed both of those so I am excited to go to the one in South Korea. My favorite rides are Earthquake, ET and Shrek 4D.

They hope to attract 15 million tourists a year.

It will be located in the city of Hwaseong.

Construction is projected to start next year and open early 2014.

They expect the project to create 40,000 jobs. (I wonder if they would hire foreigners. I should look into that).
