“ We live in an eld obsess with personal safety , ” wrote Hong on hisRisk Theme Park brochure . And the more we avoid the possibility of danger , the less probable we are to know how to respond , making us more reliant on others — like firefighters — for security .
Hong hopes that by immersing visitant in mock disaster situations , they ’ll learn more than they currently do in risk - free environments like South Korea’sSafety Experience Centers . The Risk stem Park would also “ lead the populace to appreciate the risks that other multitude take on their behalf . ”
So far , there ’s no plan to actually build up the entertainment parkland , because , well , safety precaution .
