Foreign customers are delighted with the traditional Korean fans presented in the main branch of the Shinsaegae Department store, Friday.

Absolutely delighted. Delight-o-rama. Delightilicious. A trailerload of varied delights and whimsies.

Reminds me of the primary colored store security draw down gates. Of course I love that, it's beautiful! Korea is very advanced in the arts and always has been! Strongest country: Porn Hub of Asia.

I see those fans as potential to be the basis of the Korean Tourism industry.
Worth travelling halfway round the world for, definitely. Them and gimchi, big drawcards.

I don't know about this... When isn't Korea talking about itself? I have seen a lot better fans out there.

Personally the two guys in the back of the picture seem more interested in the chick than in the fans.

They are too bright...
Get those things away from me.

Why were the 2 foreigners at the fan section anyway???? Don't tell me they were trying to learn about the culture.

One of those guys looks like the chap out of "Boogie nights..." The guy who played the chap with the big piece. What's his name again?

The traditional fans must be better than the modern ones produced in Korea.

I know a Korean who shipped two big electric fans back here with him from America because he says the fans in Korea are not as good because they overheat after a couple of hours, have inferior motors and don't last as long.

And, yes, I think the traditional fans are too circus circus for me too. Maybe to direct traffic.

That goes for most Korean made goods.
