I'm sure there is a posting on this somewhere...

I had 3 hours to kill at ICN between my KE flights. I've been to ICN many times, and I prefer the shopping in the satellite, so I decided to venture over.

Yes, there was a sign saying "to gate XXX only."

But I didn't realize the sign meant that if you go there, you can't come back.

So after doing a little shopping, I searched for the train entrance. It was nowhere. I asked at the info kiosk, and she told me, "impossible to get back."

I said, "well, how do YOU get back at the end of your shift?"

She smiled, got on her intercom, and someone came to escort me through an interesting maze, ultimately getting me back to point zero!
