A Snowy Day in Bukchon

by Robert Koehler on January 11, 2008

We got our first real snow of the year in Seoul today.

To mark the occasion, I shot some photos in Bukchon Hanok Village during my lunch hour. Enjoy.

Then there’s always the full-size slideshow.

Those are mighty fine pics, Robert – thanks for sharing. It brought back lots of winter-in-Korea memoeries, I could almost taste the hot boricha.
