15. 'May AI help you?'

Getting a bit of a Spielberg film vibe from the cutout of the head in the 'A' here, but yeap, that is the airport AI #LinguisticLandscape right there!

12. And something new here in the real world of the AI #LinguisticLandscape with AI guides at Incheon International Airport, but apparently they are not quite ready to be of service . . . Yet.

DAISY ALE
HITACHINO NEST BEER

Another fun project, where there is already some good research I think, would be looking at the beer #LinguisticLandscape of Korea, including beer from abroad and whatnot. So much going on with beer and language . . . .

Tim Hortons Korea with their fourth entry in their Canadian city as a beverage series with Victoria Butchart Gardens, adding a Victorian twist to the coffee #LinguisticLandscape!
The world now asks, 'When Winnipeg?'

Quite the neat representation of Toronto in this Tim Hortons Korea pamphlet, part of the coffee and cafe #LinguisticLandscape!
So that is Montréal, Vancouver, Toronto, and next apparently is Victoria, all represented?
Where's my Winnipeg?

There is something interesting in the AI #LinguisticLandscape of Korea where AI generated images are promoting AI research practices amid, it feels like to me, a pretty serious move to adopt AI across many different fields. Makes me want to look at studies of AI adoption across countries . . . .
11. 2026 AI Co-Scientist Challenge Korea
(Exploring the potential of AI co-scientists: a laboratory for scientific and technological research innovation with AI[Google Lens translation])

Quite the image and concept here, with AI adoption seeming to be moving forward here in Korea in a lot of ways.
