May 5, 2006

In addition to being Cinco de Mayo, today is Buddha's birthday and Children's Day (어린이날), public holidays in South Korea. (Children's Day was known as Boy's Day until 1975, according to a Wikipedia entry.) And to incorporate the two holidays, how about a photo of children celebrating Buddha's birthday? :D


Some interesting articles I found on the Korea Times Web site:

"For the Beauty of 'Hangul'"

Hangul calligraphy and design becoming popular around the world.

"'Hollywood Plagiarized My Novel'"

A Korean author has filed a lawsuit against a U.S. film distribution company, claiming that the movie "The 40-Year-Old Virgin" plagiarized his 1996 novel, "Virgin Till The End, Just Once."
