Presidential Day

Went out with a friend to see the Christmas tree and skating rink at city hall. Little did I know the newly elected president would give a victory speech there. It was so packed but felt festive with Christmas around the corner and with knowing who would win the presidential elections in the next couple of hours. (이명박 Lee, Myung-bak)

We walked over to 청계천 (chung-geh-chun), a man-made stream with nice walkways which (as sunjun said) was nicely lit with so many lights and decorations. 청계천 was actually commissioned by the newly elected president when he was mayor of Seoul. Unfortunately he is being prosecuted for fraud but I doubt he will be convicted.

We also stopped by the Christmas decorations by Lotte Dept. store in Euljiro. Not Saks 5th Avenute but still very nice & heart-warming.

p.s. merry Christmas from Heinekin
