Korean fashion project

I just saw my Korean class classmate's FB photo album on Korean street style and I just had to write this entry:

Another "one of the greatest regrets" that I have about my 5 months in Korea was not taking photos of Korean girls' street style and doing up an entry on it :(

It would have been nice going to Myeongdong, Edae, Hongdae, Gangnam, Apgujeong and Sinsa taking photos of Korean street style! And then I could have done one for university girls' dressing as well. WHAT A WASTE. Actually, it'll be nice to do one for all 4 seasons...which means I should be in Korea for a year. Maybe masters in Korea will be a good idea to experience enough of Korea.

My attempts in Sinsa and Samcheongdong:
Actually, I just wanted to take a shot of those in the cafe, not the woman with the pink outerwear.
I took this shot because I love the woman's white tweed-like jacket
I was fascinated by his LV bag/huge pouch
I was in love with the wine dress
Putting fake grass on the steps is cool
Ok, this is not quite related because the guy in the picture is Yuya and I'm just putting this picture here because I love it.
So there, my feeble attempts.

Actually, I had always thought that I had a lot of time in Korea.
I thought that I could go back to those lovely places that I went to again to take better photos.
But I never got the chance and I'm left with these photos.

I need to go back. So many things not done and someone I badly need to be with.

I'm still getting it even though it's been more than 6 months already! Hope things are good with u :) See u around school sometime?

@ Lena: I don’t think they are models! But having said that, I guess the photographer could have been selective of whom he photographed :) Many Koreans in Korea are actually that good looking though, especially in the more expensive areas like Gangnam, Apgujeong and Sinsa. Well-dressed and good-looking.

@ Mel: Yup, cya soon! Are you in school on Tuesdays?
