We went to Cheongju on a pretty summer day and had some hoddeok in a park with a Ginkgo tree over 900 years old as the seniors played games or gambled or just sat and we walked some more and took photos and ended a nice day looking at fluffy clouds thinking hey Cheongju is nice.
i was in koreatown with someone who hates korea and she pointed at a building and said "everything looks like that". the building looked a lot like the one in the photo just above the bundled greens. maybe a little less crumbly.
