Default Passing through Incheon beware

Seems the Koreans are on the war-path about bring in counterfiet items. My co-pilot had bought a couple of real nice Rolexs from Jimmys while we were in Tapei. Heading home to Anchorage through Inchon the security guys got all excited about my co-pilot's watches. Held us up for over an hour while we waited for a customs officer to show up. Talked to the UPS crew coming out and they said similar things have happend to them. One Capt was bringing back a couple of bottles of wine and the the Koreans saw fit to take it from him. He did get that back according to the UPS crew. In the end we spent almost 4 hours in custom hell over in the main terminal. They finally took my co-pilot's watches and he was out $600 bucks. So heads up if you've bought items to bring back home but are spending a night in Korea..........
