2010

Happy New Year!!!!

For Koreans 2010 is the year of the White Tiger




Yayyy !!

A new year is always good, it's a new beginning, at least I think so. This year is also special for Korea as it marks the start of the "Visit Korea years 2010-2012". This campaign aims at attracting millions of tourists to the country. I think that for the people that don't know much about Korea is a good opportunity to save some $$$ and come here. You see, Korea is full of interesting things to see and do, it will surprise you, hopefully. This is one of the promoting videos for the campaing:





There are many events scheduled during this period, for example, the "World Design Capital Seoul", the 2012 Yeosu World Expo, a hallyu (Korean wave) festival, World Cultural Festival, among other things.
If you want to learnm more about this campaign log on to http://www.korea.net/ they provide lots of information on many events going on during this winter.
