These photos by photographer Kim Kyung Soon for the October 2007 issue of Korean Vogue have been popping up on several blogs lately (found via Design Mom.) I think they’re great.
The models are dressed in hanbok, traditional Korean dresses. I have a few pictures of me in hanbok (that sadly don’t look anything like this). But if I can find them I’ll scan and post them sometime.
Usually hanbok are more brightly colored (older women wear more muted colors) but I love the soft colors and stillness of these photos. Looking at them makes my eyes happy.
I found some large images of these over at Simple BlueprintThe other thing floating around the ol’ internets I wanted to share was this video by OK Go. I know a lot of you have probably already seen it but I’m posting it just in case you haven’t and because it’s a happy Friday-type-of-thing.
Have a great weekend!
Oh, I love these.
I love the background! Especially the kittens and the bamboo. Thanks for posting them they are beautiful!
Awesome video. Is it all one take? And the pictures are gorgeous. Usually you don't see quite so much leg in a hanbok. Woo woo!
Nice photos.
That video is amazing!
These pics are so beautiful. Thanks for sharing.
And that video? I can't imagine how much time it took to set all that up!
