All of the lights

I went with some friends to a Lantern Festival in Seoul's Downtown stream. Then Nelson and I went again. There were amazing traditional lanterns that were life size and larger. 







I need to catch up on my Korean history, but a lot of the lanterns were based on old Korean kings and their entourages.



Yup, that's Batman.



I also need to catch up on my Korean folktales. The tiger and grandma battle it out and grandma wins. Love it ^^

Another folktale. The girl gave her life so her blind father could see. So impressed by her selflessness, some god gave her life back. And she was reborn in a lotus flower...(the last part I might have made up lol).

Year of the Rabbit



Mash up of videos Nelson and I have recorded in the past 2 weeks.

Fun bar Nelson and I found in Hongdae.

Little Dudu, my new friend.

We also found some cool street art in Hongdae. 

More pics and the Thanksgiving feast Nelson and I dished up on Nelson's blog.
