There are several street performers
wandering around attracting crowds. Pictured below is a somewhat
surreal scene involving a clown and his young sidekick. As the clown
sat on the ground, uneventfully eating mandu and blowing up a few balloons,
his young companion became obviously sad and out of sorts. The crowd
wasn't sure if it was part of an act or not. Then a scary looking guy
in a black PIFF jacket broke through the circle of onlookers, and barked
at the elder clown for a while.. Shortly thereafter, both clowns
started packing up and the crowd dispersed. A few minutes later
a fresh crowd gathered as they sat eating squid served up by the guys
in cowboy hats.
Several portrait painters
have their easels set up...
...and there are always plenty
of Nampodong recreational standby's like shopping, drinking, punching,
dancing, and of course people watching.
