Kind of funny promotional video for Korea:

Slick.

The percussion soundtrack is a good choice & the images are pretty.
2001 according to the Seoul clip. They should have kept this ad agency on hire.

I always find it very funny that Korea chooses to call itself the land of morning calm. Mornings here are anything but calm!

"Land of the morning calm"---Korea
Hmm....
" Land of the rising sun"----Japan
hmm..... Question

Where's the difference?

And I just spent a month travelling through China. Not only do alot of the nouns sound similar to the nouns in Chinese, but the clothing in Korea is similar to some of the folk clothing and customs of central and northern China.
When I explained this to some of my Chinese acquaintances, they gingerly told me that Korea copied alot of ideas from the Chinese for many centuries. And told me that Korea was apart of China until 1910 (a comment that would've brought on an arze-whipping here in Korea)

This is an example of a regional traditional outfit for women

Though the clothing is different in design, the pattern is similar to the Chinese one above.

..... Confused
