what a beautiful dress & screen. I bet it was wonderful to listen to. my best friend who has moved far away was Korean and I loved the food and I would drive her to visit all her friends, she did not drive, always parties with great food. Miss her more tho...

Beautiful ! Is it just like the koto ? I love her costume too !

Ai Sakura said...

Yes it was a surreal experience in its simplicity. That beautiful dress is their national costume - hanbok. Sounded much like the guzheng.

Looks very tranquil.

This is oh so beautiful. Thanks for sharing Ai! It is interesting seeing this instrument. In school I played the recorder. I wish I remembered how to play it now!:) I am happy to join your link up this week and hope you and your family are having a good Wednesday. Take care.

I wondered what it sounded like? Was it melancholy?
