[HanCinema Korea's Photo Diary] Bupyeong Shopping on Christmas Eve

The first real snow hit Seoul and its surrounding cities Friday night and with it came the promise of a white Christmas here in Korea. The cold weather and icy streets didn't stop the Christmas crowds from occupying the Bupyeong shopping hub as last minute gifts were sort after at the cost of numbness and muddy shoes. Besides the popular shopping chains that get all the limelight, Bupyeong also has tradition markets shadowing its more modern counterpart. Just slip down an alley and you'll soon find yourself wandering them and forgetting what exactly you came there for.
