In the trendy area around Hongik University Station, there are many funky shops and eateries. Just off a side street, this narrow set of stairs led down to what appeared to me to possibly be a character goods or anime shop? The signage, the bold colours, and the variety of post-it notes on the walls, combined to mesmerize me. I should have went down inside...

THE KINGDOM OF MUSHROOMS
More than 30 years have passed since the Chernobyl disaster, since then the radioactive magma that was generated following the explosion of the fourth reactor was buried under a vault of steel and cement. Over the years the various and systematic inspections of the protective sarcophagus have revealed a black mushroom rich in melanin which, despite a very inhospitable and prohibitive environment, grew more and more flourishing on the walls of the protective structure. A team of researchers from the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York has studied the phenomenon and found that strong ionizing radiations, more or less deadly for most living beings, are a major vital resource for fungi, in fact, researchers have shown that mycetes, thanks to a mechanism similar to that of chlorophylline photosynthesis, can absorb the radiations to develop and thrive.
I believe that in any post-nuclear scenario the mushrooms can not be missing and so as they have colonized the walls of the sarcophagus of the Chernobyl reactor are definitely destined to colonize the world. It seems unbelievable that this simple spongy and brainless organism, in the case of a nuclear catastrophe, is sure to survive the human species.
In Italy the boletus edulis also known as porcino is one of the most loved and sought after spontaneous mushrooms, and is considered the king of mushrooms and woods, it is a sin that it is greedy with ionizing radiation, especially cesium 137.
