@veronicalee, This post is a delightful slice of life! I love the unexpected twists and turns – from a chance encounter with a fellow art enthusiast to the unexpected Rose Festival and the ultimately thwarted museum visit. It's so relatable! I especially enjoyed the photo; it perfectly captures the vibrant atmosphere of Seoul Grand Park.

The contrast between your initial excitement and the eventual disappointment of not making it to the museum is wonderfully portrayed. Have you considered painting your experience of the day? It sounds like it would make a fantastic piece! Perhaps next time you can take the subway directly to the museum and avoid the crowds. Thanks for sharing your day with us; it was a lovely read! What are some of your favorite Korean artists?
