Seoul - Daehangno, Dongnaemun, ...

On retrouve Jong-Seok, un ami de Ho-Seong, pour un dejeuner de bossam (porc et chou). C'est un ancien militaire de l'armee de l'air coreenne, et est maintenant retourne a ses etudes pour devenir avocat.
Nous partons ensuite pour Daehongno, et le jardin des marroniers, quartier abritant les aspirations artistiques des Seoulites. Visite d'une galerie funkorchestrale (on rencontre meme l'artiste en personne :P) puis direction Dongnaemun (porte de l'est) et le fameux Dongnaemun market, reputee pour ses etals de vetements, tissus et accessoires (bon, un peu decu quand meme, les coreens s'habillent comme nous, et pas moyen de trouver quelques fringues originales a part les pauvres Tshirts touristiques, genre I love Korea...) ... Le marche aux puces, dans le stade de baseball est bien plus interessant, ... brics et brocs en tout genre, où antiquites, articles de chasses ou de hi-fi, godemichets et autres se cotoient harmonieusement, aha :D ... Direction ensuite le Namsan, mont respecte et adore des Seoulites, ou est plantée la Tour de Namsan (malheureusement fermée pour cause de renovation) ... du haut du Namsan la vue panoramique sur le Seoul nocturne laisse reveur :)
Bon, il est temps de rejoindre Su-Jeong et son futur mari, pour picol^^boire un coup a leur futur mariage :) ... Degustation de plusieurs alcools locaux, autour d'un plat de Sundae (genre de boudin coreen) ... Bon, encore une fois, ya pas photo, l'entrainement breton vient a bout de n'importe quel pretendant coreen :D ... couche tardif quand meme.


We meet Jong-Seok, Ho-Seong's friend, for having a lunch (today's meal : bossam). He was a military officer in Korean air Force, and quit to become a lawyer.
Moving then to Daehangno, and the Marronier garden, this district smells art ^^, very quiet and arty atmosphere, we visit a funkorchestra exhibition, :P ... and even meet the artist himself, and then heading to Dongnaemun (the east gate), and its famous clothes markets (a bit disapointed,I expected to find some special korean style modern clothes, but exepting the loosy T-Shirts such as "I love Korea", it seems that here, like elsewhere, everybody's wearing same kind of clothes ^^;;) ... interesting anyway :) ... even more interesting is the flea market, in the baseball stadium ^o^ ... everythings together, bric-a-brac, from antiquities to hi-fi stuffs, sex toys or hiking tools O_o" ... but this all-together make a strange harmony anyway ^^ ... Going then to the Namsan, without which Seoul would not be Seoul, and its Namsan Tower (closed due to renovation till next year -_-;;) ... anyway, from the Namsan, the view over Seoul, by nite, is magic :) ... (I already think how much I will miss there) ...
Well ... it's time to meet Su-Jeong and her future husband to celebrate their future wedding ^^/ ... Tasting some korean drinks and having Sundae meal (in sundae town :P) ... Once again, french training seems stronger than korean one, when talking about drinking ^^V ... going to sleep late, anyway :P
