For some reason, it was very cool for the past month — especially since we should of been in full swing with summer weather.  However, it’s now “fully on” and temperatures should start to rise into the 90’s and above.  The humidity is definitely increased.  You can feel it on your skin and when you walk out of Air Conditioned rooms and offices.  

Summer is finally here in Korea!


  1. Hello!
    I’ve just discovered your site and am hoping that you can direct me in the right direction.
    I will be returning to Seoul in September to begin photographing and writing a book about one of my favorite pastimes in Seoul, South Korea.
    I am in talks with a small publishing company there but would like to shop the book to other publishers as well before I sign a contract. Would you know of any publishers either in the U.S. or in Korea that I should contact?

    I am an American photographer and writer and will have my work published in a book by renowned British designer this coming September.

    Thank you for your time and consideration.

    Sincerely,
    F. Shelton

  2. Unfortunately, I don’t have a any publisher contacts at this point. I would suggest looking on LinkedIn or when you come back to look at the publisher details of some of your favorite books and see if you can find the appropriate contacts. You could also contact some of the writers of English newspapers like the Times, Herald and even the IHT. Good luck!
