National museum in Gwanju

This beautiful picture was stolen from the Net, since I am the only person who does not own a digital camera.

One of the great things about our orientation was the feild trips. We went to the National museum in Gwanju, where we were treated to a live demonstration of tradional music and took an introductory lesson in several instruments including the janggu hourglass shaped drum and the kkwaenggwari bronze gong.

We also attended an art workshop where we each made a print by rubbing a carved artifact and getting the releif image on soft paper. This nows adorns the wall in my apartment, a nivce souvenier of a fun day.
