Korea 2009 :: Day 2
I was frustrated to find that many of the pics I took today were grainy and frankly kind of worthless. The one above wasn’t too bad.
Sol is Mihwa’s niece and she attended our wedding in 2007. I was nice to see her again even if we didn’t have much time to talk. She had a western wedding in a church and I would estimate that it was slightly larger than ours at least in terms of the number of people.
You’ll notice that we are wearing our hanbok for the ceremony. At first I was against wearing them as they aren’t particularly comfortable and would require almost a dedicated suitcase just to get them to Korea. Of course I lost that one and we brought them along.
I wasn’t that upset by it as it did give us a reason to use them again. However, I was not impressed to find that I was the only male at the wedding wearing one. Every other guy was in a suit and comfortable even though I had seen some of them wearing their hanbok at my wedding.
“Great. Another reason for the white guy to stand out.”
That’s what I call flying below the radar
More please …
