What a tragedy…
Last night some ajosshi bum burned down Namdaemun, the 600 year old wooden gate which marked the south border of the old city.
There are a ton of photos out in the media.
This one was snatched from the Korea Herald website.
Here’s a historical photo tribute
which links to what are possibly the most striking shots
coming from a waegookin whose flickr link I’ve posted below
Namdaemun Fire February 10, 2008
A huge loss for the nation…
They say it will take three years to reconstruct…
another soon to be replica.
