Durga



One of the good things about living in a big city is that we can have lots of various types of world food. Nearby my office, I found an Indian/Nepali restaurant and the place was quite busy during lunch time. What do you have for your lunch?

Night View



Irish Association of Korea had its first committee meeting at Hyatt this evening and this means the early step for next year's St. Patrick's Day in Seoul has got on the track. The Seoul branch of this global hotel & resort company is located in the very centre of the capital, in the middle of Namsan (Mt.), and have a view toward the southern part of Seoul along the Hangang (river).

Scarfs



The autumn has arrived and even it seems like the winter's coming soon. Some shops in Insadong are selling scarfs and a number of people are very much interested in them. My colleague and I also bought scarfs today. :) How are you getting yourself ready for the cold climate?

Bike Rack



In Seoul Plaza in front of City Hall, there was an exhibition of public facilities with a touch of design. Instead of this fancy bike rack, however, I think we need more bicycle paths first.

Seoul Chungmuro Intl Film Festival



Like Hollywood to the USA, it is Chungmuro to Seoul that is a mecca of film industry. Mainly due to the enormous expansion of lots of multiplex to commercial areas, people do not necessarily go to Chungmuro for movies any more so it seems the heyday has gone. In an attempt to remain its symbolic value, however, Chungmuro is holding its first ever international film festival. This structure is a film reel covered with flowers and leaves.

Posters



This is one spot in Shinchon, a university quarter, and there are always loads of posters on almost all the walls. They are mostly about music concerts and club parties. It is a kind of good channel from which I get some information about gigs, but sometimes it looks messy.

Sujeong & Kevin's Wedding



As I said about a week ago, today I went to my friends' wedding and the ceremony was held in Korean traditional way. The couple looked so lovely that everyone was amazed by them, and the ceremony was fantastic indeed. I've been thinking that I'd also like my wedding to be this way, and today I made a firm decision to have the traditional wedding. I'll try to post more pictures from the wedding someday.
