A professor was injured after a package exploded in his office at Yonsei university in Korea. The architecture professor found a package hanging on his door which suddenly exploded when he was opening it. He suffered burns on his neck, chest and hands and is being treated at the hospital. Nobody else was injured from the incident. The explosive was reportedly clumsily made as it only exploded from one side of the package. Korean news reports said the police are investigating and do not rule out the possibility of a terror attack.

If you thought TVs couldn't get any thinner, think again. LG Display's "wallpaper" panel is 55 inches wide, but less than a millimeter (four-hundredths of an inch) thick.

When in Korea, do as the Koreans do. Moving to a completely foreign country like Korea requires a few years of preparation, and still you can never be too prepared. Both Singapore and Korea might be Asian countries with a somewhat similar economic development story, but the similarities end there. Korea, with its unique community, culture and lifestyle, takes a lot more to adapt to than simply learning a few Korean words and/ or K-pop ditties.
