Korean Folk Music Festival


James and I went on a random trip to Olympic Park for some juggling and found the Korean Folk Music Festival was going on. In this photo, James is doing a 4 club trick called a triple-single. We did several short shows at this location.



This photo was taken in the main festival grounds where James and I did some entertaining amidst the other activities going on around us.




This very short video shows the Korean Folk Drummers who were warming up the crowd. The video is too short and only shows the most tame portion of their music. I really wish I had been able to video tape all of it. (For best viewing of these videos: click play so the screen says "buffering" and then click pause until the entire video is loaded - you can tell by watching the gray bar move from left to right.)



This video is also way too short to do the singer justice. This is a Female Korean Folk singer. I thought this was a lot of fun to listen to, even though I have no clue what she was saying. There is an old man playing a drum while sitting on the stage beside her. I really wish I could have had this whole thing on video. I'll have to make plans for that next year.
