Spring in Seoul 2010

Didn't have time to update much about Spring cherry blossoms like other Korean bloggers did. Now that most cherry blossoms are no more (some are still in full bloom in some areas), only then I have time to upload the photos here T_T

All photos' copyrights by me.


At National Assembly (國會), Yeouido (汝矣島).




The "cherry blossom road" outside of the National Assembly, where the Spring festival is held.







Feel like eating the petals XD

Teacher shows the children: "this is 벚꽃". Yes, don't say "sakura" in front of the Koreans, haha. Nor "櫻花" XD

Class photo~

It's beautiful, isn't it.

Beauties with beautiful flowers.

Ajossi and ajumma also taking photos of flowers with their cellphone or camera. It's trendy to do so.
Unlike our experience in Australia, if we snap a close-up photo of flowers by the roadside or food on our plate, old gentlemen  will ask "why are you taking the photo of the flower/food?" like we're some freaks, LOL.

I'm not sure what's with magnifying the cherry trees.... o__O
But it's cool to have class outside of the classroom^^

Individual graduation photo? They even have the professional photographer to take photos of the students, how nice!

They are in black-white-blue color, how interesting!
