Although this little guy was a complete stranger, he struck me as being so irresistibly cute that I just had to take his picture. He and his parents were at Gyeongbokgung Palace and they were delighted to grant me this photo opp.

Here now are some delightful older folks...

CLICK! to view FULL SIZE Road Hockey!
Who says road hockey is an exclusively Canadian pastime?

The image below shows where they are playing...

CLICK! to view FULL SIZE At Seoul Olympic Park! 
The city of Seoul did a fantastic job hosting the Summer Olympics in 1988--the same year that Calgary hosted the Winter Games!

Who says that putting on a fabulous Olympics is something that only Albertans can do?

CLICK! to view FULL SIZE Asian Urban Cowboys!
With the wild graphics and "horses," these cool arcade games really attract a lot of attention.

Who says that being an urban cowboy is an exclusively Western activity?

CLICK! to view FULL SIZE The Bar Scene!
This is a fantastic little Rock 'n Roll bar where they play requests and have only one washroom - for both men and women!
(A common practice in Korea)

Who says that bar hopping is an exclusively North American pastime?

One thing I've learned from all these encounters with interesting Korean people is that we--Canadians and Koreans--really have a lot more in common than some of us realize!

More images will come as encounters continue...
