EPIK 365 Day 259: Two Brothers


The War Memorial of Korea has a lot of stuff…exhibits of ancient instruments of war to more modern things.  Understandably, there is quite a bit of things from the Korean War.  I found this sculpture to be particularly moving…it shows two brothers on opposite sides of the Korean War.  You can't see it in this picture, but the "ground" is splitting between them…just like the war.

EPIK 365 Day 249: Political Rally


With modern communication technology, we've lost a lot of political savvy…there's something to be said for a good old-fashioned political campaign speech held in the middle of town.

EPIK 365 Day 172: Pride


It's funny, but I really do get a sense of pride when I see the Korean flag blowing in the wind.  I would never call myself overly patriotic, but, I don't know, it just feels different here.  It's nice.
