A Trip Around The Globe – 2007

Seoul, South Korea video – first reel

The video snippets showcase a lot of the energy and culture that Korea has to offer. Much of the night street scenes were shot in and around Insadong (in Seoul). The sea creature is an octopus, which as a delicacy is served live, similar to clams or oysters except for the added movement and sucking tentacles. Seoul has many sections, such as Myong Dong, which are filled with street vendors, and after work hours are filled with throngs of people.

The video was originally shot in HD (1080i) and was resized to fit the web.

Korean Starbucks – Hangul letters

Seoul has many Starbucks but maybe only one with the name written out in Korean. This one is in Insadong, a popular outdoor shopping area.
