This past Saturday night I went to a Hanbok Fashion show about an hour North of Seoul. Hanboks are the traditional Korean dress. The designer Soon Hwa Lee is a well-known modern Hanbok fashion designer. This was her Spring Fashion Show.
The fashion show was a Buddhist Temple Site, in the mountains. I think I'll remember it as one of the most beautiful places on Earth (that I've seen!).
After we had a traditional vegetarian dinner, we were entertained by a singer who had several hits back in the 70's and 80's (in Korea).
His first two songs were in Korean, but then he rocked the house with Tom Jones "Delilah".
Then the fashion show started with a look back at the ancient traditional Hanboks, and worked forward to the new Spring modern line.
The designer is the woman dressed in all red in the middle.
That night will definetly rank up there in my top ten list of things I've seen/done in Korea!
