Eight foot thick walls? What are they expecting? Armageddon? And where was the printer made? Korea?

Consider the benefits. Design virtually anything you can imagine. Then “walk through” and edit it with VR headsets and gloves. No unions, made out of reinforced concrete. Practically fireproof, extremely low maintenance and very efficient. Cheaper and faster than conventional methods.
It’s inevitable.

That’s a hermit kingdom run as a criminal family enterprise. Go through your house and look for things manufactured in the other Korea.

Where did I say North Korea? The soldiers at my camp were in the ROK (”South Korean”) Army.
