I was at 청계천 [cheonggyecheon] in downtown Seoul today, with my friend Mary before she returned to Daegu. There were many paper sculptures set up in the stream, left over from the Buddhamas parades last week. Here are some pictures – they convey scenes and stories from Buddha’s birth and life.
The fifth picture down (apparently titled “Sun 107”), a man with open arms, looks a LOT like Obama.
