Korean customs (and immigration) people are notoriously uninformed. Rules change from office to office and people within the office. I was polite to the officer (these are guys who can order "special" searches), but firm. His eyes went wide when I requested to see the manual (and informed him I could read Korean).
As for dangerous, the young customs guy never saw me with my bow and arrow or matchlock (I'm dangerous to all but my intended target)

This type of minor officials swell up like puffer fish, and rule within their little niches by cowing the "supplicants" with their uniforms...
Poetic!
So, professors aren't dangerous..? I have always believed that knowledge is the most powerful weapon of all.
