Letter from Ah Leon - Korea - page 3
The Expo is being held in three pottery cities that are fairly close to each other. It is about a 20 minute drive between cities. They are huge and full of people visiting. There are many booths with people selling all kinds of pottery, made by both studio artists and quality factories. More than two million people have visited the Expo, and it is only half over. It ends on October 28th. People have been lining up to get into the museum. It was really hot there, but children were playing outside at the show.
Those picture were taken in the late afternoon after we finished working. There were many more people during the day.

It was an unbelievable event. I wish you could have seen it. At least you can see a bit through the pictures!

Best wishes,

Ah Leon
