I saw this at Namsan Tower; hundreds of pairs of initialed padlocks secured to the chain-link fence by Korean couples professing their undying love. some were regular, others were custom purchased heart-shaped ones; I even saw a pair of bicycle locks with pictures of the happy couple. The cynic in me wonders if they keep the keys or chuck them over the side, or if there's a locksmith on call with bolt-cutters for emergency break-ups.
