At KNU we just had big hills. At SCH we had two staircases, one slight shorter than 108 and one slightly longer. I never did find out if there was a name for them in Korean but in English we called them "wooden stairs" and "stairs of death" respectively. The wooden stairs were a little scarier since they were really uneven (both in height AND length, sometimes within a single stair) and curved into an S shape. The railing was a loose rope that was too thick to get a solid hold on. Indeed, injuries were a fairly common occurrence, everything from sprained ankles and muscles to something broken.
