At Geumsunsa we met a woman(김현주) from Netherland who was staying at temple.

Today we heard sad news from Mr. Stephen Kopp that his father-in-law has passed last night. He had planned to sketch with us last Saturday. We felt so sorry because we met his wife Susie and worried about her father. We hope his eternal peace and that they get recovered from deep sorrow soon.
We sketched at Seoul station and Geumsunsa Temple located at Gugi-dong, Bughan mountain.

The day scene was different from night. The atmosphere inside and outside would be better at night. But it seemed better to sketch at day for we could see more buildings clearly.

The far right mountain would be Namsan(southward mountain).

I could see Tapgol(Tower) Park and Jongmyo Park at left side of Jongno street. And at lower part I found the Seungdong church.

The Jongno Tower building locates in center part of Jongno street. Hwasin Department was located before at that place. The empty space at top part looks characteristic creating various scenes with the lower buildings around it. I enjoyed lunch and sketching together.

It was so cold outdoors to sketch that we met indoors and sketched freely at market building.There are various kinds of regional specialties, craftworks, pottery, and various traditional items and many others. Those are really interesting subjects. We sketchers including Mr.Stephen Kopp had a good time drawing some colorful sketches half the day yesterday.

Though we've plan to sketch at Seoul Flea Market building, we visited there with KH Lee during his holidays in army. On the way coming home we dropped in the Dongmyo for drawing some. Due to the cold weather we just finished one for each. All the street from the Seoul flea market to Dongdaemun Gate was busy with customers and merchants. And we found a good place for sketching, the Dongmyo which was built in honor of the 3rd century Chinese military commander, Guan Yu on 1601, among flea market on street of Soongin-dong.
