Andong. Part 1

During that  short period when I was in Korea, I saw a lot though)
One of the first trip was a excursion to Andong - traditional Korean village.
I got plenty of unforgettable impressions after visiting Andong.
If you'll be in Korea, go there and, *I'm sure!!* you won't regret!!

Andong is not so far from Daegu. We went there as international students of KNU =)
First of all, we visited Museum. It was one disadvantage of this museum - poor English translation. Meanwhile, most of students didn't speak English at all((
Bur still, if you wanna know traditional Korean culture, a trip to Andong is a must have!!
I took some pics in the  museum.

I post to share my happiness of being chosen as one of 50 bloggers for Korea blog !! It's a great honour for me!!
Well, I'll do my best!!

20th anniversary of Korea-Russia bilateral relations

Korea-P\Russia bilateral relations was established in 1990.

There was a range of events devoted to this date in different Russian and Korean cities. Unfortunately, I couldn't attend any event when I was in Korea=(
So, I wanna tell you how it was in Russia, in my native Novosibirsk =)
2-5.06 was days of Korean culture: a festival of Korean movies (Gwasok scandal, etc), thaekwondo, Korean traditional drums and "Miji" group were included in the program of festival.

 

 

It was impressive! There are a lot of children in Russia who fond of Taekwondo. They also were participants of the event

"Miji" ensemble presented their album "Challenge".
