What do you do when bored in a strange airport?
Find a free internet kiosk, of course! Incheon Airport, Seoul, is rather a boring place. It's big, modern, functional and bo-o-oring. By contrast, KLIA (Kuala Lumpur) is interesting and even Sydney has some character. I'm tempted to even describe Incheon as sterile.
But even with an hour until my flight boards, I'm running out of tolerance for IE... Even counting the novelty of using Windows in Korean. Ah well.

Been there, done that
(I've been waiting years to say that with literal truth.) Two layovers and ten hours between them. Fortunately I also had travel companions and a compact Scrabble set.

I had only two hours, fortunately.
And since you board about half-an-hour before, and getting through international transfer can also take a while, it was rather less than 2 hours.
Interestingly, Incheon has a small hotel actually inside the secure area, clearly designed for international passengers on transfer. I could have gotten a nice massage in there, too.

A massage, or a "massage"? (Perhaps they offer both...)

Your "massage" isn't clear. :)

Methinks he meant...
Either a real massage or a "massage" -- nudge, wink, little more...

ISTR that the correct nomenclature is
"A rub and a tug"

Several possible replies presented themselves....
And most were discarded because they tended to mean the wrong one. :-)
I meant the real one. Where things don't get excited, so to speak.

How do you know, if you didn't take it?
Not that I was ever trying to imply you would; just wondering how they make their message clear, so people know what to expect. How *did* they do that; how come you know that "hings don't get excited"? They put one of those too-narrow-for-the-other-kind massage tables out in front of the place? Or just used a very boring typeface on the sign...? What? Salacious minds want to know, and all that... :-)
