City immersion

That's the future? English villages or islands for complete immersion. Props - blond with blue eyes - must be in high demand in Korea these days. But the scenario is no utopia. Parents want their children to learn English, not to experience living abroad. The Jeju island English town will be a Disneyland kind of campus-city less the fear and stress of living ... abroad. Anthropology is said to be loosing ground more than ever as democratized plane trips have open up the doors to brief stays here and there, all over the world littered with familiar signs, the Starbucks of the globalized world. Coming next an English only day at Tokyo Disneyland.
