Yesterday I went to Gwanghwamun to sketch there. Visiting the museum I could see lots of records in living, democracy, industrial developments after the Independence, 1945, which was held for the celebration of 70th anniversary of National Liberation Day, Aug. 15, 1945. After sketching some on the rooftop and 3rd floor I walked and found people enjoying in pools which were set up for kids on the Sejong Street reserving the passage of cars. Citizens with their children seemed happy. I enjoyed with them sketching too.

어제 광화문에 있는 대한민국 역사 박물관에서 광복 70년을 기념하여 전시중인 "70년의 세월, 70가지 이야기" 를 관람하고 나와서 보니 세종문화회관쪽에 물미끄럼대와 풀장에 아이들이 몰눌이하는 풍경을 보았어요. 하루뿐이지만 광화문에 차량을 통제하고 시민에게 그 공간을 돌려주는 것같아 그들과 함께 시원한 물놀이를 한 느낌이었어요. 간밤에 천둥벼락이 쳤는데 다행히 낮에는 비가 안와서 다행이다 싶었습니다. 신촌에서도 한차례 같은 행사가 있었다고 했는데 이번에 광화문에서 만나게 되어 한장 그렸습니다.
