Khan, the dog we looked after and almost killed in January, is alive and well (see this link). In fact, we took him to the 350th Daegu Traditional Medicine Festival that was held a few weeks ago. We were surprised at the amount of attention a cute little puppy gets at a public event like this. For once, we felt as though the Koreans were not staring us, they were staring at the dog.
The smells of the oldest medicine market in Korea are indescribable as we slurped down a myriad of medicinal concoctions, gocked at displays of giant herbs, and relaxed our feet in a herb medicine foot bath surrounded by fountains, engulfed in a herb garden.
Just as we confirmed to ourselves that Khan is a celebrity, we found that a picture of Alissa and me participating in last years Daegu Traditional Medicine Festival had made the promotional pamphlet for this years 350th anniversary celebrations (see last years post).
