Good bye Summer~~~ Hello Autumn~!!!

Hello, This is Sam~!!


what is your favorite season?



The autumn season in Korea is between September and November.

The weather is cool and crisp, and the sky is blue with few clouds.


Autumn is also a season of beautiful falling leaves.


Ginkgo trees and maple trees change their hues to yellow and crimson throughout Korea.


During this time, Koreans love to go hiking in the mountains to enjoy the picturesque landscape created by autumn leaves.


Would you join us to hiking in the mountains??

1st Box 1 Racing in Han river!

Hi, everyone :)

Can I ask one thing?

Do you think a paper can be floating on the water?
Even the paper boat?

If you asked to me, I would answer "YES"!

Because I know this festival on this saturday in Han river :)

It's known because of a T.V show, so people held this festival.

People will cross the Han river taking a paper boat which they made them self.

Isn't it sounds interesting?

I wanted to join this exotic festival! but I'll just watch this festival and join next year!

Would like to go and go there?
It's for free to watch! Go to Han river!
