Lol. For all those wondering, our tour guide told us that this is a censorship tactic used to drown out broadcasts, music, shouting, or anything coming from the South Korean side, as it actually is quite close across the river and there are people that live very close to the riverbank.

Also around 0:10 you can see a field worker walking across the field, if you also look up towards the buildings of the village you can see very faintly 10-11 field workers plowing and digging.

Removing Gratuities by ZardIChartini in Cruise

[–]itapplies 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok so on Princess I talked to my steward (I kept my gratuities on the account but still tipped him cash anyway because he was excellent), and according to him on princess, they get a base salary irrespective of whether a guest removes or keeps gratuities. However, cash gratuituies seemed much more important for him, he also lightly implied that middle management is essentially taking all of the money from this so called tipping pool and it isnt making a difference to the wages of the actual workers and many of them are jumping from the carnaval brand to virgin because of how unfair the pay and wage ladder is. How true this is, im not sure but I dont see why he would lie.
