Insa-dong and Gwanghwamoon

On december 21st, our class went to Insa-dong.
In Insa-dong, there were a lot of fabulous things!
There were a lot of galaries and Korean traditional products, and delicious food.

 In taxi.
 One of the famous things in Insa-dong is Ddong-Bread.
It looks really funny, because it's poo shaped... But it's delicious...
 Also, there was DALKI-Bread.

DALKI is Korean character.
In the painting, the girl who has red hair is DALKI.
DALKI is a Korean word, which means 'strawberry'.
DALKI's hair is red, also she has strawberry shaped head and 3 green points
which looks like strawberry seeds on her head , so she looks like strawberry.

 These Ddong-Bread and DALKI-Bread are famous because of their shapes,
and Korean comedian Jun-ha Jeong ate the bread in Korean comedy program, Moohan Dojeon.
It costs 2000 won for three, and we can buy hot tea, too.

Here is Ssam-zi Gil.
There were a lot of shops and cafe.

I ate Ddong-Bread, too!
It's very soft and There are sweet read beans in it.
Also, there were many people in Ssam-zi gil!

This is corn pan cake.
There is brown sugar in the pan cake, and be careful when you eat because it's very hot.
The corn pan cake needs a lot of oil to make, but it was very fresh and clean.
This is the map of Ssam-zi gil.
Ssam-zi gil looks like a long long stairs, like the stairs in Inception.

This is another shop in Insa-dong, Toto's old goods.

We can see old products in there.
I think the products made in 1960-1970, I think.
There were old textbooks, dolls, stickers, clothes, and music tapes.
There are a lot of old figure dolls!
These are not real old things, but they are 'old style'.
Also it is cheap, so we can buy them without burdens.
They are Korean old characters, Chul-su and Young-hee!
They were the main characters of old textbooks, with their dog, Badook-e.
The name 'Chul-su' and 'Young-hee' was very popular name in the past.
These are old stamps.
Well, they're not 'real old stamp', but they're old style, too.
They're 2000 won for each.
Most Korean teachers uses stamps like 'star', 'Good job(with Chul-su and Young-hee characters', 'Okay',
and we can buy them here.
These are old school uniforms.
They're for display.
It's an old postbox!
These are old school uniforms, too.
Here's Gwanghwamoon!
In Jongno Goo, the place which Gwanghwamoon is in,
there is digital map.
I didn't know the way, but I could find the way to Kyobo bookstore.
Beautiful light bulbs:)



It was nice trip in Insa-dong.
