Buddha’s birthday has come around again. If you’re living in Seoul, look around the city for the lanterns. Buddha’s birthday is being celebrated May 5th this year. The lantern parade will be in the evening on April 29th. Check it out at Jongno.
This footage comes from the park in front of Donguk University. I filmed it last year, when I stumbled upon it walking through the city late at night, on my way home from the bars.
I feel sad reflecting that was already a year ago. I miss my friends from that time, who are gone now. I miss the apartment where I lived then. I regret that a year has gone by and I still have not had time to edit all the video I took then.
