Korean Folk Village

 In November 2011 we went to Seoul and Suwon, Korea. In Suwon we went to Korean Folk Village (KFV) and Everland which is a knock off of Disney. It's better than that, but that's what it felt like. We had a great time and I would really recommend both places. The Korean Folk Village was just the same idea as Williamsburg,. Things were set up the way Korea use to be in the olden days. Employees were wearing traditional Korean clothing. Also it was Autumn, so the trees were really beautiful! Here are some pictures from that day.








Here are some school children tossing up some beautiful yellow leaves!


A look into the past





You could make your own pottery. However, they can only ship it to a Korean address. So, instead we bought some that was already made. It was surprisingly cheap.

Donkey may can bite you! As the sign clearly states...haha



Here's how they use to punish prisoners back in the day. Flogging, that'll learn ya to do something bad!



She looks a little too happy

That will teach you to call me bad names!!
 She's getting her punishment for beating her little brother!
Pay back!

Just in case you didn't know what prisoners looked like, here are some fake ones for you....or are they?

On that note, here's part of our lunch. We ate bindaetteok, I think? It was delicious whatever it was! Food in Korea was fantastic

Did you get any pictures of Everland????? I think people would really like to see that. One person, anyway.

You're pictures are really good. But next time, you should try to aperture some stuff out of them or use photoshop to make the colors brighter, because brighter is better. And you really should watermark them, as well, in case someone tries to steal them from the internet.
