Chongechon Lantern festival

The lantern festival ran again this year with more lanterns but it seemed less people - too cold? Swine flu?




Most people wrote about their hopes for loving their partner but one wrote just for the hope of making love (literally translated he (probably he) wants to bang/hammer)

Prada transformer, Gyeonhuigung and Gwanghwamun plaza

The lastest The Prada Transformer Exhibition -'Turn into me' by Nathalie Djurberg, Sweden. Not recommended.

Waiting for the King.

Depending on your rank depended on where you waited for the king behind these stones- the lowest last.

A print exhibition at Seoul Art Museum in front of Gyeonhui palace that was worth seeing.



A park in the middle of a main road in Jogno has been made called Gwanghwamun Plaza. The sculpture is of Admiral Yi who defeated Japanese in his turtle boat. The fountains symbolize the battles he fought at sea. Above is Haechi, the new (and ugly) symbol of Seoul.

10 doors in Bukchon dong

I'm fascinated by Korean gates. It's the mystery of what lies behind them I think that captures me. The ten doors are all from Bukchon dong in Seoul.
