lucky much?? HAN GUK

Arrived in Korea safely in the morning, did not expect that the weather would be cold. Trying to capture every essence and the lifestyle in Korea is especially different. What better then to visit Namsangol Hanok Village. But they did not open for the day but manage to capture much absence of the outer area of the place as seen beside.

then, we made our way to Seoul tower, in which the view plus the air and everything that is around was simply

breath taking. i did not expect Seoul to have such beautiful view just from one spot itself. But the more i see, the more i am amazed at how history is surrounded by Seoul tower itself.

only then did we went ahead to have our visit to MBC: It started since 1961. the place itself, consists of 13 rooms which includes 4 recording and 9 live rooms. It is standard that whenever, the light outside one of the live radio room is on, its means that it is live "On Air". the kind of system that they use during is APC system whenever they are doing live radio recording. while the DJS are in the room where the equipments that directly leads to where the listeners would hear. while they are busy DJing, in another room which is connected to the recording room, is where the producer and writer and the other team members would be in to help out in terms of them informing the DJs informations such as reactions of listeners through personal mikes, or even through special equipments so that they are able to receive the informations needed. Not only that, we do know that musical instruments are being kept in one of the rooms that are used to create sound effects needed. When they are working, the producer will seat in the middle while the rest of the staffs will be surrounding the producer. To add on to make the working place more interesting is that, they have a section, where they award DJs with radio golden mouth either a gold or bronze.

in addition, in the MBC building itself, they have 4 studio which is located which were lucky enough to go into one of it which is in B studio, that is where the newscasting/entertainment,etc make their recording. in which opposite of the set of the newcasting table there is big huge blue screen in which they make use of chroma colour marking that is where they add visual effects to create movies such as "Avatar". They also make use of the bluescreen for weather forecasting that only the viewer can see the effects. in addition, they do have lightings to create a much better looking atmosphere to the environment. In which they made use of the old and new cameras(cost up to $500,000 USD).

The very next day, our first visiting site was to Gyeongbokgung Palace as well as the National Folk Museum of Korea. But along the way we manage to get to see some statue as well as the president's house along the way which has a blue roof top to it. the statues consist of a pheonix represented the president while the other statues surrounded represented workers.

fortunately, we manage to went back to the village where we went yesterday but it was close. this time round, it was open so we manage to see the houses that was seen inside of it. In the history itself, as mentioned, that when a girl turn into the age of 16 they would have to go out of the mother's house and live in another just beside. while a son would go out of the mother's house when they are 7 and move into their father's house. it was said that a guy and girl cannot live in the same house and that they are not allowed to sit together.

after then, we got the honor to visit picto studio one of the famous stop motion industry. it has been around for 10 years. they make use of clay , 2D and 3D animation. Sometimes even mixing clay with 3d or 2d with clay. they make use of amateur modelings or modeling clay. they made use of materials such as sand, styrofoam, modeling clay, chemicals to make materials such as water, rubber, wood. They have blue screens to make use to add effects when they are editing the shots. So the sculpturers, designers, artists, photographer, editor, etc., play a very important role individually just to create a stop motion production. however, because of the time consuming and money that this kind of industry uses it has become less popular. therefore, they make use of 3d and 2d and to mix up so that it would be much useful when they make use of such productions when doing work. one of their famous work would be KFC.
