Surreality, thy name is Korea - Part 1

Today was the Suncheon Jeil School Festival. Not knowing what to expect, but not expecting very much, I was completely bowled over by the whole day (hence, 2 posts). And yeah, it was pretty surreal (but hey, this is Korea.... we get used to it).

First off, there was the stuff at school: student art exhibits, a computer game competition, face painting, movies, games, food, the works... Melissa and I wandered around with our cameras, taking pictures of kids that we especially like...


And we got our tarot cards read too (the guy on the left of the pic is translating on the spot - amazing student!).



And saw a few Samurai (???).


And headed down to a Norae (Korean karaoke) thing too... By now, we've become completely used to watching our students sing ballads to each other.

The rest of the day was to be some sort of talent show/concert at the Suncheon University Hall. Melissa and I headed out, still not quite sure what to expect.
