As a child I lived for a time in Seoul, South Korea. As an adult, I'll return to Seoul with my husband to adopt a child. This is our journey back to Seoul.

Hi Everyone,

There is a very interesting opportunity coming up at the Korean Embassy! KORUS House is hosting this on May 17th as part of the Around the World Open House:

KORUS House, Embassy of the Republic of Korea
Time: 10 am – 4 pm
Location: 2370 Massachusetts Avenue, NW
Metro: Dupont Circle (Red line)
Admission: Free For more info: www.koreaembassy.org

Master Han J. Do and 20 traditional Korean martial arts performers will demonstrate Taekwondo and teach moves to children. View the exhibition Traditional Korean Archery and film, and tour the embassy’s museum filled with traditional musical instruments and Korean artifacts. Take advantage of a rare photo opportunity alongside a painted fence, which promotes a long life.

There are lots of embassys participating and you can view the complete list at:

This activity is a nice reminder of the wealth of cultural opportunities we have available to us in Washington, DC!
