When I started laying the foundation for this site around 2009 I was living and writing in South Korea, and taking note of the growing intersections of Pittsburgh and Korea: Hines Ward, Hwang Woo-suk, a Pittsburgher-owned bar in Incheon, and the Seoul church built to resemble PPG place, among other things. There were also a handful of random "Pittsburgh"s there, too: a bar called Pittsburgh in Siheung, a pizza place called Pittsburgh in Ansan, a Cafeteria Pittsburgh in Seoul, a hamburger placed called 피츠버거 (which is how Pittsburger [sic] would be hangeulized), and a Pittsburgh Hall at a university.
While following up on some of these this week I came across the latest Koreayinzer artifact: a Pittsburgh house in Gyeongsangbuk-do. The apartment in Chilgok-gun is a four-story, 15-unit apartment building ; three floors of five units each sit atop a ground floor parking garage. The exterior has black and yellow trim, with "Pittsburgh" in along the side, and a Pittsburgh Pirates P marks.
The photos in this post were taken from Kakao Map's Road View around the apartment's address, 경북 칠곡군 석적읍 남중리2길 17.
The black and yellow theme was applied sometime after the next-to-last Road View look in August 2020:
