Laser Show, 2011 Gyeongju World Expo (image from http://au.ibtimes.co)
My apologies for being a bit slow in getting caught up from our vacation. As always, there have been some cool things happening in Gyeongju this summer, so here’s a belated rundown of some of the highlights: The time has come around again for the triennial Gyeongju World Culture ExpoZ. The fun kicked off on August 12th and runs for 60 days until October 20th. The World Culture Expo features performances and exhibitions from around the world (which you’ve probably already guessed). To give you a better idea of what the Expo’s about, the 2008 Expo featured everything from traditional Thai dancing, a Russian Ice Ballet, and a retrospective of Korean video artist Baik Nam Jun to Chinese acrobats and an exhibition of Korean cartoon characters for the kids. Like a lot of expats in Korea, my wife and I have already traveled a bit internationally so we found a few of the exhibits to be a mite cheesy and overdone. Even so, it was still a fun day out and definitely worth the price of admission. read more
) for being slack in posting lately. I had not one, but two, presentations to prepare for my masters program this last week. As my creative efforts have been going elsewhere, I don’t actually have any articles ready to post atm. However this year’s cherry blossoms are in full bloom and I did get out recently for some family photos among the blossoms.
