I took advantage of the opening night (November 5) of the ten day Seoul Lantern Festival that went on along the Cheonggyecheon stream. By night, the stream was lit up with huge intricate lanterns that represented countries from across the globe. These beautiful paper lanterns glowed in multiple colors and shapes. It was like going down Christmas trails, but without the Christmas theme. As soon as the lights were on, the entrances to the stream below were opened, and was instantly compacted with people. I stayed on street level looking down at the beauty, all whilst drinking a bottle of makgeolli. Of course ^^
A year in (and around) South Korea. Seen through my eyes and my camera's lens.
