The ongoing Winter Olympics at PyeongChang in South Korea, has introduced the world to the intricacies of sports like snowboarding, luge, curling, figure skating and alpine skiing. It has also given us inspiring stories of Mark McMorris and Markus Schairer and taught us why one shouldn't lose hope or give up.
But, most importantly, what the 2018 Winter Olympics has shown us is that there's a park nearby (barely an hour away), which is filled with penises, as many as 50 giant penises. The Haeshindang Park, which people call the '***** Park' has now become the most sought after tourist destination, for obvious reasons.

From ***** benches, ***** totem poles, ***** wind chimes to a ***** canon; we bet you have never seen or will ever see so many penises in your entire lifetime, or anywhere else in the world.

While you can sit comfortably on ***** benches or click photos next to the giant ***** statues, tourists are warned not to mount on the canon, because we are sure getting blown away by a giant ***** will be the last thing you will want the world to remember you for.
South Korea isn't the only country that worships the *****, Japan has a whole festival dedicated to it. Every year, Japan celebrates 'Kanamara Matsuri' aka ***** festival, where people take out rallies with giant monstrous ***** statues on their shoulders.

Japan's reason to celebrate the festival is a legend about a sharp toothed demon, living inside a woman's vagina, who castrated the men she tried to have *** with. The demon died after the woman used an iron phallus (since they couldn't call it a dildo back then).

South Korea's '***** Park' too was born from a legend about a virgin and fish, and we can't even begin to describe how bizarre the legend is. In front of this story, even Japan's legend makes sense.
So, the legend goes that a virgin woman got stuck in a storm and drowned in the sea, while waiting for her boyfriend. After her death, the villagers couldn't catch any fish and the woman's spirit was deemed as the cause, because that's sound like the best explanation, right?

But, a fisherman turned out to be the accidental hero who got the all the fish back, after he urinated in the sea. Villagers thought that it is a ***** that appeased the virgin ghost and started worshipping it…wait, what?
This was the story behind the unusual '***** Park', but South Koreans' obsession over ***** clearly does not end at this park. Unless you forgot to pay your internet bill and missed out on the memes that were circulating on social media, you would have definitely come across these *****-head naked statues that shined in all its glory on the internet.
