Book - Skopein / May in Korea

May in South Korea,

the winter snow has melted, the chill of spring has faded, and the rainy season has yet to arrive.

It is the best time of the year.


It is a season made for going out,

A season perfect for walking from Gwanghwamun to Namdaemun,

for exploring art museums around Gyeongbokgung Palace,

for indulging in Korean barbecue,

for venturing into the old market,

for sipping an afternoon coffee and taking a stroll along the Han River.

It is a season for staying home, reading a book while lying bare-skinned.

The warm daylight is perfect for holding hands;

The cool night breeze is perfect for an embrace.


The month of life that belongs to Maius,

It is a season made for remembrance.
