The second time to Seoul was 9 years after my first visit. There wasn’t much change: similar lifestyles in the city’s bustling shopping area, crowded wet markets, riot police, and demonstrations…lots of demonstrations. Korean never lacks the momentum for innovation and to out win their neighbors. Yet in the midst of prosperity, the city cuddles under a fear and a hope of long lasting peace.[Background music: 책갈피 | Reminisence - INST, by 하정호]
