Korean gourmet: I had some business in Japan over the weekend.、In the end, I stayed in Korea for two days.、In terms of time, it was only about 45 hours.。Also、I didn't eat breakfast on the second day、A total of three meals are available at the restaurant。I can't say I enjoyed Korean food at all.、They were all delicious so I'll introduce them here。 This is Samgyeopsal, which is also well known in Japan.。It was a store that was booked by the Festival Executive Committee.、A famous hidden shop in a back alley that foreign tourists can't find easily。Anyway, this is it too! That's how the meat comes out。 Cheers(Conveyor)! After eating meat, I couldn't eat any more、Mix the remaining meat and vegetables from the iron plate with kimchi or gochujang、Fried rice with finishing touches (볶음밥/pokkunpa)。It has far exceeded the capacity of the stomach、I couldn't eat breakfast the next day。 Second day of stay、While walking around looking for festival-related galleries、Gradually my stomach is getting better。I was walking down the busy area to see if there was any suitable lunch.、Anyway, there's only a samgyosar restaurant.。The Samgyeopsal shop is also next to the Samgyeopsal shop.、And across from it is Samgyeopsal。I ate samgyeopsal last night、It's also quite difficult to eat it alone。I'm getting hungry too、15There are also artist talks from time to time.、I thought I had to put something in my stomach and then I went to a shop called "착한감자탕 해장국"。If you convert the store name using translation software, it's "gentle potatoes"? It was late for lunch so、There is only one customer besides me。I can't read the menu at all、Again, with the help of translation software、I ordered a spicy pork spare rib hangover soup.。Now、What is "hangover soup"? There was also rice on the menu.、I also tried to order that、Apparently rice comes along。 so、This is what was provided。Under the soup is a rib-equipped pork.。Wear plastic gloves and hold the bones、Slurp the soup and bite into the meat。What is this! ? It's so delicious! It's three times more painful than what you imagine from the appearance、The flavor is more than three times more。I happened to be in the store but I was very pleased.。 I looked it up after returning to Japan、What is Haejanguk?、Remember the tired stomach and intestines the day after drinking alcohol、It is a soup that is effective for hangovers and nourishing and tonicating.、It was a perfect meal for my stomach on the day.。 The final supper in Korea was invited by Jeon Jae-hong, the executive committee chairman of the festival.、Enjoy high-class Korean food with the people at Kiyosato Photo Art Museum。I also looked into this after returning home.、In a cooking form called Han Jungsik、It is a traditional Korean course meal.。One after another, plates with dishes for the number of people will be served.。If you are slowing down even a little、In no time, the table is filled with food。All the dishes were delicious。

To participate in the opening reception and artist talk for "Daejeon International Photo Festival 2025"、2018I went to Korea for the first time in 7 years since the 2019 photo exhibition "Japan Mirai Line."。Korea is Seoul、I've been to Henan, a nearby town.、My first visit to Daejeon (Ota city)。It was a short stay for just two nights、Here we will introduce the photo festival and the atmosphere of the city of Ota city.。 Daejeon Artist House, the main venue of the festival, Arts Center is a new building with a distinctive exterior。Apparently this festival was the first time last year.、At that time, Martin Parr and Moriyama Daimichi were exhibiting at this venue.。According to Wikipedia, the population of Ota city is 1.44 million.、Apparently it is the fifth largest city in Korea.。 Jeon Jae-hong, the executive committee chairman, is the person in the center of the photo.。Next to him is the photographer Seto Masato.。This time, Seto came as director of Kiyosato Photo Art Museum.。 The main theme of this year's Daejeon International Photo Festival is “Cities and Humans”. My work “Tokyo Circulation” It's exactly because people are photographed in the city.、I'm simply happy that the work has been selected on this topic。 A gallery designed to surround the courtyard of the reception venue。So the wall is round and curved。On the large venue、The exhibition spaces for each artist are independent, too.。You can enjoy the exhibition in a relaxed layout。 1Made in your own print with a large stretched print about m “Tokyo Circulation” It's quite refreshing to see it, as it's only available at a large venue.。 Michael Wolf's Famous Series “Architecture of Density”. It's also a great experience to see ultra-precise depictions and flat compositions in large sizes.。 Zhang Xiao participates from China。His photo book “COASTLINE”、”They”、”Shanxi” I own three books too.、I'm a very favorite author。 This time we are exhibiting、This is his early work “Subdue” This was my first time seeing this work。 …
