A decade ago - Oido waterfront, South Korea, 1st June 2002.
Note man-proof fence to keep out the Northerners, and maybe to keep in the Southerners.

10 years ago. A concert of gugak - Korean traditional music.
At the National Centre for Korean Traditional Performing Arts (국립국악원).
Seoul, 11th May, 2002.
Many instruments… The long board zithers on the left are kayageums, behind them are various sizes of flute, from the small sogeum to the long daegeum. There is a haegeum (rather like the Chinese erhu). In the centre are two big jong-ak ajaengs (bowed with a stick), and the fretted zithers off to the right are geomungos. At the back on the right are piris - small double reed bamboo oboes. Only one drum is being used, the drummer is sitting idle at present.

Ten years ago - expats in Korea eating their meagre dinner…
It’s 17th February 2002. James is looking smug because he cooked. The only Korean there is trying to be polite…
