22/06/1999 Michael visits "Everland"

Today, Michael left the Shilla Hotel at 12:45 a.m.

He went to Tower Records for a little shopping spree. He bought several

CDs there, including a Charlie Chaplin compilation and an Aretha

Franklin album. While in the record shop, Michael watched two fans

(from France and from Germany) dance for him.

At 2 p.m., Michael left the store and went to "Everland", an amusement

park 1 hour away from the center of Seoul.

At 3 p.m., Michael started his visit of "Everland". He was wearing his

sunglasses and holding an umbrella to protect him from the sun. Michael

was conspicuously wearing golden sandals.

Fans were allowed to follow Michael everywhere, provided they would

stand behind a security rope.

After walking a few minutes into the park, Michael went inside a little

theatre where a welcome party was held for him.

Afterwards, he tried a few attractions, such as the Horror House.

Michael did the rest of the visit in a small golf car.

At the end of the visit, Michael attended a special show that

"Everland" had put together for him. Sitting underneath a wide

umbrella, next to handicapped children, he watched a drum performance,

a little play by the "Everland" characters and a choir performance by

40 children. They sang "Heal The World" and the "Everland" theme song.

For the finale, two little girls asked Michael to come on stage but his

umbrella couldn't be found so he had to decline the invitation.

At 4:30 p.m., Michael left the park and went to a meeting with

representants of an orphanage.
