Sweet chariot

After being thwarted by the padlocks of Nirvana and being fascinated by a treatise on Tibetan psychoanalysis, we were almost run down by a heavily made-up toddler. Insadong played host to a procession to re-enact a formative incident in ancient Korean lore. Again, the details are sketchy, but include at least wholesale political persecution, a three year old prince, lots of rouge and mascara, and a high degree of danger for Western pedestrians.
