needs to be scrapped in favor of a new, more modern app.

I think we should be careful what we wish for. I can see them remaking the app with beautiful curves and intuitive workflow and then implementing a required “foreigner registration number” into the ticket purchase procedure.

“We improved national security and ensured only lawful foreigners are aboard our transportation systems, working together with Homeland Security by integrating a registration number verification system.”

“What? Tourists don’t have a registration number? Oh… hmm”

“Well, they don’t speak Korean anyway, they didn’t need the app”

“The app has an English option…? Why?”

“I don’t think we can remove the registration number requirement, because then the app would be not in compliance with Assembly Law Number 25-093”

“Oh well. We’ll talk to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs to require all tourists to register and receive the registration system prior to each visit then. This way they can use the Korail app, while also ensuring tourism doesn’t endanger national security. Especially all those Chinese tourists.”
